"It's a good tool to manage software versions, update the status, and manage tasks."
"We found the requirement management and the version control features to be the most useful for our client."

"It is a stable solution."

"The web version does not have all the functionalities of the non-web version. Administration and adding/removing fields, etc. cannot be done on the web version. People want solutions that are compatible with Android. I also want to have a version by which I can bulk edit all the fields."
"It's not easy to plan on this solution and it's not user-friendly. The interface should be more like a web interface. It's not easy to use."
"For complex businesses, the internal templates could have more flexibility and compatibility."
"I would like to see better integration from the architectural side."
"To be honest, the third controller system is kind of old. There are lots of transactional changes that have not been implemented in PTC. If you have a larger project, for example, whenever you give bits and need to change 10,000 files you can just commit them. But here the work style is a little more file based, so you'll have to take care of almost all the files individually. It's not a single commit like you do here, but rather you have to allocate time for each component or file that you want to check in or commit. That's a very big issue."
"There are not enough reports. People would like to see something similar to what is available in JIRA."
"It's not so customizable. Compared to other tools, defining user stories is a slightly more cumbersome process as an ALM engineer."
"We are unhappy because everything that we needed required customization and this is not a plug-and-play type of solution at all."
"They should have design patterns in TFS for the development team, and design patterns for the QA."
"There's not automatic access to test case management and execution."
"We encounter issues with backups."
"TFS on-premise does not support integration with SharePoint Online."
"Merging branches is definitely one of the more challenging aspects for people new to TFS."
"TFS's CI/CD, project pipelines, and management development could be improved."
"The project management side should be addressed and the project and release planning should be somewhat extended."
"Access and permissions are confusing when attempting to include basic manual testing functionalities."
