What Lucas appreciates about Clarity
Clarity is the proverbial jack of all trades among PPM tools. The software is outstanding across all areas, and in some of them it even leads the field. The functionality and flexibility of Clarity were decisive criteria in our selection process.
What Josef appreciates about Clarity
Clarity is now a core system that we use to manage and monitor projects and project portfolios at our company, and it complements our application landscape accordingly. We also use Clarity as a reporting tool at the management level, since it offers a simple and transparent overview of the project landscape and the status of the individual projects.
What Matthias appreciates about Clarity
One of the biggest advantages that Clarity has is that it’s extremely flexible and modular, which makes it relatively easy to integrate it with other systems via interfaces.
What Stephan appreciates about Clarity
We showed how difficult it was to make costs and revenues transparent and to compare them without Clarity. And, of course, top management wants to know whether we are staying within our budgets, whether we are profitable, and if what we are doing is contributing to this or not. At this point, we quickly recognized the added value of Clarity, and we were also able to convince the management to introduce the new software.
What Andrea appreciates about Clarity
We decided on Clarity as a suitable tool for improving our project and resource management processes as it came out at the top of our internal evaluation process and met all our technical and business requirements. We found it particularly important to be able to map the various use cases of the business units as well as to ensure that the software could be deployed globally.
What Rolf appreciates about Clarity
Thanks to Clarity‘s flexibility in customizing and aligning processes and views, we are able to satisfy the needs of different areas.
What Sebastian appreciates about Clarity
The development of Clarity at Unternehmensgruppe Theo Müller has been very successful: In the past, with some topics, the question was whether we needed to do this in Clarity. Today, we tend to ask ourselves: "Can we map this in Clarity?".

Clarity is a web‑based platform that is hosted centrally on a server and can be used comfortably via any modern web browser.
The software is provided as a SaaS solution, hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS) servers located in Germany. With more than 20 years of Clarity experience, itdesign offers extensive expertise in technical operations, administration, and maintenance of Clarity systems. Our SaaS offering enables full operation of your solution from a single source – all you need is an internet connection.
If a SaaS solution is not an option for you, on‑premises operation is also possible.
Clarity’s system architecture offers future proof and flexible integration technologies such as REST API, SOAP (XOG), sFTP, OData, and SCIM. This enables seamless integration into your IT landscape. From SAP to Jira and Microsoft Power BI, all common third party systems can be connected to Clarity. We support you in developing an individual integration strategy and implement solutions that ensure transparency, efficiency, and consistent data.
Even the best software unfolds its potential only with the right partner. With itdesign, Clarity becomes a powerful platform for your project and portfolio management. We support you throughout your entire Clarity journey, from selection and implementation to customization, integration, and ongoing operations – all from a single source.
The duration of the implementation depends strongly on the scope and your requirements and can range from 3 to 12 months. Together, we start with a scoping workshop to define your needs. From there, you can test Clarity in a proof of concept without obligation. If you choose the software, implementation follows in agile sprints. You can use the data and content from the proof of concept and do not need to start from scratch.
