"It is a stable solution."
"Since implementing this solution we have better communication and information exchange with customers."
"You can track the metrics in the Agile dashboard very easily."

"Codebeamer's API-based integration and many other integration aspects with other solutions are very powerful."
"My team likes the integration that Microsoft Azure DevOps has with GitHub and Microsoft Teams. The solution is well integrated with other Microsoft tools in one place, it is very good."
"There are great automation tools."
"Two of the most valuable features include the integrated project management suite, which consolidates source code and project management in a single location, and its powerful reporting capabilities."
"Most developers and project managers choose the Microsoft tools to begin with because of familiarity, and these new tools are almost an extension of the tools you're already familiar with. There's a lot of knowledge transfer, which helps, rather than bringing in a new product line."
"We are able to generate many different types of reports from Azure."
"Most of the features are very valuable for us, especially the source code control and task management."
"We can track everything from the requirements stage to the production stage."
"It's very user-friendly, and the documentation is good. The most valuable feature is backlog item creation, where we pick features and other things. The burndown chart created for projects to be maintained by the development teams is also useful."
"It's still a fairly new tool that lacks maturity right now."
"We would like to see more industry-specific features that are tailored to the vertical markets."
"I would like to see more, easily trackable reports."

"Usability needs to be improved."
"The search and replace feature within the tool itself could be improved."
"The product's UI is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"It would be helpful if Codebeamer's overall processing and integration with software like Jira could be improved."
"Requirements management is an area that can be improved."
"Incorporating security tools directly into DevOps is crucial, as many existing DevOps solutions lack robust security features."
"They could provide clearer guidance on deployment practices for the product."
"It should be able to handle the different types. There is ecosystems engineering, and there is software applications engineering. There is a need to bring these teams together, but the disciplines don't integrate very well, and so it won't work."
"Microsoft could focus on refining the reporting and dashboard elements of Azure DevOps to improve it."
"The optimization feature in Microsoft Azure DevOps needs improvement. Control over multiple projects could also be improved."
"Microsoft could improve Visual Studio by making it easier to find the plugins you need to get your job done. Maybe they could implement an AI search instead of a simple tech search. Sometimes, people come up with a catchy name for something, and you don't know how it's spelled. For example, a developer might come up with a packet wizard and spell weird, like P-A-K-I-T."
"At times, our development work encounters issues, particularly when executing numerous CI/CD processes."
