I think it’s extremely easy to use and the interface is one of the best I’ve seen yet.

Russell, Shaffer, TopTenReviews  

Traditional project management software does not allow for ease of collaboration on multiple projects and geographically disparate project teams. As a project manager, having worked with project teams in a 'virtual' environment, my struggle has always been the timely update and communication from said teams.

What Clarizen appears to have been able to achieve is the ability to drive to a more discrete level of detail as it relates to project tasks and the ability for team members to update management.

Other products do not have this ability - the majority of other SaaS offerings give collaboration capabilities but do not address the fundamental areas that project managers are expecting such as task level updates, import/export capabilities, milestones and roadmapping of multiple projects, resource dependencies across the portfolio,etc.

Ken Guedo, Principal, Kelian Consulting  

Clarizen’s project management solution is unique in its on project execution rather than just planning and in its focus on users who are not necessarily professional project managers. Clarizen is the only solution truly enabling the entire team to be part of the project by allowing users to easily and effectively report their progress simply by using email.

Clarizen’s SaaS business model offers unique advantages, allowing businesses to focus on successfully managing their projects instead of worrying about software or hardware installations. It is essentially collaborative as it allows all users to access information and knowledge anytime, anywhere – not only within a single organization but also facilitates secure collaboration with partners and customers.

Clarizen is certainly taking the lead in its ease of use and the power it gives team to execute their projects to successful completion.

Maria Johnson, Project Manager .com  

Clarizen's purpose is rather profound: make a PM software that employees will not hate. Sounds simple, right? It's not.

...

Clarizen approaches this problem smartly, incorporating a wiki-like feature that allows a community of workers to easily edit and advance the same project, with various levels of privileges, and observe their progress on a cool graphical timeline.

...

You can even email the system to make changes, just like you'd email your intern to pawn off some work. It doesn't get any more economical than that.

Chris Dannen, Fast Company  

"[Clarizen] is powerful enough to tackle even complicated SMB projects, but well designed, with a web interface that is second to none. It really looks great when you see it, and it's very intuitive." 

...

"Think about using the software, not getting the software ready so that you can use it. Clarizen doesn't require you to install anything, and being on the web, your small team can log-in and start using it right away."

...

"Clarizen is a good solution and one of the best examples of the powerful web applications available these days. As a small business your choices aren't limited anymore to affordable, yet rudimentary tools."

Dave Austin, Allbusiness.com  

The SMB market is wide open for Clarizen right now, as they're one of only a few companies offering a powerful and practical solution to the segment.

Coming out with 50 paying customers from a free beta is remarkable.
It's great to see the impact that the beta and the user community has had on driving functionality in the final product - Clarizen is clearly poised to lead this high growth market.

Chris Shipley, Technology and Product Analyst at Guidewire Group  

Business leaders are seeing a growing need to empower all members of project teams to become more informed, active and decisive collaborators within the organization and with external partners.

Clarizen's on- demand project management solution addresses this business requirement by providing team members with access to up-to-date task and exception information as well as best practice templates for all of their projects in a single environment.

Mark Levitt, VP Collab. Comp. & Ent. Workplace, IDC  

Clarizen has built an impressive feature-packed application to make even the most convoluted projects seem streamlined.

[Clarizen] has clearly devoted substantial time and effort to building a smart, full-featured product. Further kudos to Clarizen for not attempting to charm the blogosphere with free accounts. Its software is a sophisticated project management solution that merits a price tag.

With 45 employees, over 100 design partners participating in the development process, and funding from stalwart Benchmark Capital, the road ahead looks promising.
