"Robust Product Management Platform!"

5/5

What do you like best about IBM Targetprocess?

Apptio Targetprocess is built for Agile teams and excels at planning and management of the most critical intake and development processes to just standard portfolio management. It's not often that you can say that a tool grows with you as you get more advanced and in the weeds of project/product management, but this platform does. Taking advantage of the flexibility in managing processes is another area that they focus on and provide great benefit in as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IBM Targetprocess?

I don't have any thing that I would say is a dislike. I'm really happy with the overall product experience. I guess if I had to mention something, they don't have as many integrations as others in the same market. However, again I really think this is a strength because for the integrations that they do have they are complete more so than need feature enhancements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is IBM Targetprocess solving and how is that benefiting you?

Faster time to market, oversight into project and product management, a tool that serves as a record of source aligned with our business intake process, and a development tool for teams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
