"The function test feature is valuable."
"The graphics are very intuitive and it's very easy to get scale of development."

"Instead of having too many graphs and tabs, use the analysis section to get a more simplified defect analysis."
"The solution uses a lot of memory and then it dies. It's difficult to work with the solution sometimes when you run a scenario it dies. They need to make the solution lighter somehow."
