    Aha
    It is great for organizations that want to ensure that the work they focus on is the work that will have the most impact on value and drive them toward their strategic objectives. I consider it to be a real Product Management tool. If all you are looking for is a tool to hold your product backlog or collect customer feedback, then Aha! is probably going to be overkill for your needs

    Apptio Targetprocess is well suited to track work and progress of that work. In addition it is easy to tie that work to OKRs. Cost and hours rollup across the work hierarchy works well. Our users like the flexibility of Targetprocess and the ability to develop their own views and reports Scenarios where it is less appropriate is to do executive level reporting and develop reports that can pull in all of our time data since there is a 300k record limit

    Pros
    Aha
    • Aha! is an all around product management suite. It is great for breaking product plans into initiatives, features, and user stories. This helps the organization understand the product plan and what is driving individual work items. Unlike Jira and project management tools, it helps you prioritize by major themes, features, and releases. Once you start to use it, you can't go back to a project management tool because the views for organizing and prioritizing features just isn't there.
    • Aha! also excels at idea management. You can create a portal for users to submit ideas and manage them through a workflow. Users can submit ideas through a variety of channels, including email, ZenDesk, and SalesForce. You can even attach account values to an idea submitted through SalesForce, though the UI in SalesForce is a little kludgy. This is a great feature for those that have the capacity to manage feedback this way, but be aware that it takes time to manage.
    • Aha! works pretty well with Jira so that project managers can have their backlog that is understandable to the business and engineering can break down those work items however they want.
    • Aha! also has a lot of useful integrations: Slack, ZenDesk, Zapier, etc. It also integrates with every major software project management tool on the market: Jira, Pivotal, Rally, Redmine, and TFS.

    • Extremely flexible: We are able to setup work for different groups in ways that work best for them.
    • Fantastic support group: They are extremely knowledgeable and helpful. I enjoy working with them.
    • Automation: Their automation capabilities have saved us a lot of time.
    • Customizing screens: We can go into code for the different entities, move fields around or hide them, add tabs or additional sections as needed to make for a streamlined user experience.
    • Reporting: Their reporting is flexible and phenomenal. There are so many different ways to pull data and the interface is easy to use.
    • Their user guide is well built and extremely helpful.

    Cons
    Aha
    • The roadmap feature presentation web page could use some better visuals. It's a little bland and grey.
    • The mobile app only shows you what you are assigned. I am not able to manage through the mobile app--I need to use the web page.

    • The UI is bit complex for new users who never used it. i think this can be sorted out by providing the steps to access?
    • dashboards with large datasets can cause performance lags or timeouts
    • Introduce more flexible, template-based RBAC configurations.

    Targetprocess is the most flexible application for tracking work among teams that we have found. This power comes from near limitless ability to customize your views on the work tracked in the system, and from the myriad reporting options to draw metrics and stats out of the data there. Custom fields, processes, and mashups all add to this flexibility and appeal.

    Usability
    Aha
    I think Aha! works really in general, it offers a very comprehensive and well-structured platform that supports strategic product management at scale. Although there is a learning curve for new users and a few areas to be improved. Overall, it is highly usable for experienced product teams who need a robust roadmap tool.

    Overall Targetprocess's usability is good. the tool is easy to use and has features which most BUs and organizations can use. Additional features like AI integration would help the tool and its overall usability. providing additional dashboards for specific roles and executives within the tool would benefit Targetprocess with its scale

    Reports are fast loading, considering they can refresh in a second or less and we have 7 years of work tracked in over 40k entities. Pages can load slowly when the views are very busy, but not frustratingly. I am a console user most of my career and generally prefer it over webUI interfaces, but Targetprocess won me over from the beginning and I spend half my day using it now.

    Support Rating
    Aha
    We've always had excellent support whenever we need help from the company or need questions answered regarding the setup and installation of the product. Tickets are answered in a timely fashion and there's minimal back and forth to get issues resolved, which are rare.

    TargetProcess' support is one of its strengths. The support team is very responsive and helpful when there is a problem but they're also proactive in providing good release notes and engaging with the community through a voting scheme to influence the priority of new features.
    The team also releases new versions frequently with new features but with no knock-ons to currently working features.

    You should take some time to get everyone to agree how the system should be setup before work starts being tracked in Targetprocess, this avoids difficult and disruptive changes to processes or plugins later when everyone relies on it daily.

    In terms of outright features, a lot of roadmapping tools have the same feature set. We chose Aha! based on look-and-feel, the easy learning curve, and the reviews it has. Between collaboration, milestone tracking, comment threads, and content importing and exporting, we had every feature in Aha! that we were looking for.

    I would say TargetProcess is an incredibly wonderful tool. As compare to JIRA Software, it is a fully featured product. It fulfills all my business needs. Tracking efficiency of this application is quite favorable
    in order to track all the details from a certain project in just a few minutes.

    Return on Investment
    Aha
    • It has helped us improve our product lifecycle communication. We have less wasted time spent figuring out where the project is and what it's waiting on. This has helped departments further down the project better use their time so they're already aligned with what's happening rather than waiting for a handoff.
    • Aha! has helped include our customers more in our product planning and especially in our bug fixes and new feature roadmaps.
    • Aha! has improved our strategy meetings or roundup discussions by storing everything in one place. They're shorter and more focused.

    • No direct positive business ROI has caused executive leadership to play down use of the tool
    • We are hoping to use this to track progress of OKRs and business strategy, but don't have but in from executives on the value of this yet.
