Broadcom as “Leader” in Gartner’s Magic Quadrant for Strategic Portfolio Management

In its analysis, the world’s leading research and consulting company Gartner Inc. evaluated 10 software vendors for strategic portfolio management. The two criteria “Completeness of vision” and ”Ability to execute” served as the basis for the ranking. With the regularly published “Magic Quadrant”, Gartner makes it easier for companies to make an appropriate software selection.

Broadcom, with its Clarity and Rally solutions, is named a “Leader” in the software comparison of the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Strategic Portfolio Management.

Besides a high execution quality and the complete vision, the intuitive user interface has been key to the classification. Users benefit from various portfolio views and numerous functions such as aggregation and sorting of individual items. This allows companies to easily manage large-scale investments, perform in-depth analysis, and model dynamic scenarios.

Together, the two software solutions Clarity and Rally offer companies real added value through their fully comprehensive agile planning capabilities from teams to portfolios. While Clarity focuses on tool-based planning and management of projects and portfolios (PPM), Rally supports the scaling of agile practices in companies.

In their report, Gartner emphasizes the relevance of strategic portfolio management, which create “strategic options focused on an organization’s finite resources and successful execution of enterprise wide business strategy.  (…) For enterprises to be truly successful, disruptions should not be ignored or dismissed, but rather accounted for when planning and attempting to execute strategy”. Technology, they say, helps portfolio managers implement and continuously adjust strategy.¹

In recent years, Broadcom’s PPM software Clarity has been positioned several times as a “Leader” in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Project and Portfolio Management (last published in 2019).²
