"What I like the most is that you can set permissions on just one folder."
"It is very user-friendly."
"The work item feature is most valuable. It allows us to store all product requirements. We can also link the test cases to those requirements so that we know which feature has already been tested, and which one is waiting for testing. We can also couple the code reviews, unit tests, and automated tests into these requirements. It is reliable. It has all the features and good performance. It also has reporting tools or analysis tools."

"Parallel execution: It would help it multiple executions could be done at the same time."

"The solution's server for deployment needs to be improved."
"The project management side should be addressed and the project and release planning should be somewhat extended."
