    CollabNet TeamForge is more well-suited for technically knowledgeable users such as developers, systems analysts, QA but not for non-technical users due to the technical data used throughout the tool. CollabNet TeamForge is appropriate for most applications development. In any industry especially suited for high demand software delivery environments.

    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

    Well suited for
    • Companies that have experience of using the OKR methodology and have a clear understanding of what it is
    • Companies that are planning to expand/scale the OKR program
    • Companies that are looking to reduce the effort involved in running the OKR program
    Ill-suited for:
    • Companies that are using OKRs for the first time and do not have a clear understanding of the methodology

    • 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.

    • Visualizing the hierarchy and relationship between objectives and key results. The nesting and double alignment functionality are especially helpful, as they can't easily be expressed on, say, a simple worksheet or Confluence page.
    • Reminding the team to make regular check-ins. What gets measured gets done. This prevents the common pitfall of setting goals and not revisiting them until the end of a project (when it is too late).
    • Integration with external sources for automated check-ins. Why do this manually when it can happen behind the scenes?

    Cons
    Digital.ai (formerly XebiaLabs, CollabNet VersionOne, and Arxan)
    • I would like to see personalization for managing artifacts, that is, allowing the user to customize pages and save personalized settings and then save them as bookmarks.
    • I would like an improved subversion browser such as a graphical user interface rather than a basic file explorer.
    • I would like built in features for CollabNet TeamForge integrated with subversion so that i can associate my private code branches and code changes.

    • 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.

    • Accelerate integrations and add more integrations.
    • Ally.io has room for improvement in providing benchmark in-depth analysis across industries, same-size companies, etc.
    • Ally.io can still improve upon some of its product features and communicating the releases. Videos have been extremely helpful.

    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.

    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.

    They always answer the phone when we put a call in, any time. They have consistently sent out contractors when needed and were there every step of the way when we switched over from ClearCase to TeamForge years ago. The support is what you really pay for when you buy into TeamForge.

    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.

    CollabNet TeamForge is superior to Mercury mainly because it has a subversion change management tool integrated with the product. CollabNet TeamForge offers more complexity but with more flexibility for managing and tracking projects. I think
    CollabNet TeamForge is more comprehensive than either Mercury and JIRA. They're all user friendly tools with short learning curves but CollabNet TeamForge is most efficient in my experience.
    JIRA was recently adopted for particular applications and is currently being evaluated by various technology teams.

    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.
