SOUTHFIELD ? Computer Associates has enhanced its flagship IT Governance solution, Clarity, with new features that include browser-based scheduling, more flexible resource management and expanded features to support global deployments.
The changes are designed to help customers run their IT operations at peak efficiency.
?CA continues to collaborate with customers to deliver the IT governance capabilities they need to optimally meet the needs of the business,? said Josh Pickus, senior vice president of the Clarity Division, Business Service Optimization at CA.
Clarity is part of CA?s Business Service Optimization set of solutions, which enable IT organizations to maximize value from their resources, deliver higher quality services and increase IT-business alignment. CA worked closely with its Clarity customers to develop this product.
Clarity users can now leverage the industry-leading Clarity Resource-Constrained Scheduling algorithm within the Web browser, the same powerful scheduling algorithm available in CA?s Open Workbench. The RCS algorithm determines optimal project plans based on resource availability rather than on task duration, thus providing a more realistic plan in less time.
Additional product enhancements include:
New features for support of large, global deployments that require robust localization, scalability and configurability.
New language support including simplified Chinese, Czech, Italian, Swedish, Korean and Brazilian Portuguese. Existing languages supported include English, German, French, Spanish, Japanese, Dutch and Italian.
Offline timesheet management in all supported languages, providing more flexibility for remote users in geographically dispersed organizations.
Enhanced security, scalability and personalization, and expanded platform support, through upgrades to the Clarity architecture.
