Clear visibility across all work and teams It gives a single source of truth where you can see what everyone’s working on — from team tasks to enterprise-level portfolios — which makes coordination much easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about IBM Targetprocess? Several reviewers say that documentation is lacking or unclear, and that official training resources could be more helpful or detailed — making it harder for teams to learn best practices. � G2 Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the ability to streamline Agile portfolio and project management, offering teams a clear, visual way to manage work at all stages, from planning to execution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about IBM Targetprocess? The platform’s flexibility, while powerful, can also make it complex and difficult to set up initially, especially for teams unfamiliar with Agile frameworks or extensive customization. The user interface, while highly visual, feels cluttered or overwhelming, particularly in larger implementations with numerous boards and data points. Sometimes there are performance issues when handling large datasets, which can impact productivity, especially in our fast-paced environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Senior Manager Technology Business Management Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 5/31/2024 "Transformative Agile Reporting" 5/5 What do you like best about IBM Targetprocess? The most helpful point about Targetprocess from my point of view as a Portfolio Budget Manager include the ability to assign individual resources to value streams and see their immediate cost impact based upon the allocations entered. In prior years my team had to utilize up to three or four different sets of data and tools to make these calculations. Now we can make capacity changes and see and immediate update to the forecast. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about IBM Targetprocess? Filtering should be much easier instead of required a ? and set wording which does not always work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is IBM Targetprocess solving and how is that benefiting you? Targetprocess is able to report work completed in Jira that I've been unable to review before. We are able to see work complete, in progress, on hold, etc. and also see calculated costs for the effort completed. This will allow us to transform our ways of working to account for actual costs to the appropriate assets and in the future allow us to remove the highly inaccurate and time consuming hourly time reporting process we currently utilize.

Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about IBM Targetprocess? - Poor documentation - I think you guys still need to make it more responsive and detailed. Info is unclear in many areas and very high levels. Need more robust learning material - Better Training - the current info shared in training was very different than what I experience on the job while I was working with client. - Advanced filter could have been simpler, LOL But now that advanced filter are not simple - a training focusing on using Advanced filter, creating validation rule with some real time case studies or training live session or even training videos... Need more complicated scenarios to be explained and broken down properly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is IBM Targetprocess solving and how is that benefiting you?
