Linking of PI Objectives with different features was cool, but it didn't have integration with Jira

Offers good traceability elements but UI needs improvement

There is room for improvement in the UI. The UI has to improve a lot compared to the competitive tools, like Atlassian Jira, for example. It's very easy to use. It is easy to manage and easy to use. Anybody can learn it right quickly and start with it. But IBM ELM is something where somebody has to have good knowledge, training, and understanding and then only start using it. But there's a big known knowledge curve for IBM ELM. But once that is there, it's normally; organizations do have their own internal team to basically manage it IBM ELM portfolio, the tool chain. So if they have internal teams who are doing it for quite some time, not something new, then it is definitely better. But if there's if somebody is starting new, definitely there is a knowledge curve time it can take at least a year or maybe a couple of years before they can start realizing the benefits.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"The linking of PI Objectives with different features was one of the cool things. It had features, epics, and stories out of the box."

"The most valuable features of the solution are highly customizable reports and visibility for all the higher management."

"We can track the status of test cases (passed or saved) in a single view. Based on releases and other attributes, we generate various reports and extract metrics from the data."

"Traceability reporting is inbuilt and includes all your requirements."

"Good for managing stories, sprints, hydration and releases."

"Agile templates give us a standard methodology for every Agile project. Also, the ability to create our own object types and linkages to features/epics allows us to enhance the verification of feature readiness."

"Work distribution among team members and accountability for completion with a clearer picture."

"All of the features work together to provide a powerful holistic solution - from the dashboard all the way through to security."

Cons

"It should just have the integration with Jira. We haven't looked at it since Atlassian bought the product."

"We have encountered issues with stability. We have seen where the entire system kind of goes for a toss when certain people use certain types of queries, which are very costly. Then the system kind of slows down a bit, and we have to monitor it."

"If you have multiple projects on one server, the tool becomes very slow, and some reports take longer to load."

"Lacks ability to customize and reporting can be slow."

"Some administrative tasks are difficult to perform. These could be simplified."

"The solution is very heavily vendor dependent."

"Teams need clearer pictures of resource availability in charts and dashboards along with plans."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

"It's an expensive investment to make, so the decision should be driven on individual requirements."

"It is not a free tool. We use a token-based licensing model, which is specific to IBM. The cost per token is around $115-$120."

"Licensing: The solution cost is high and should be brought down to increase competition."

"I've heard IBM Engineering Workflow Management is more expensive than other tools."
