Find out what your peers are saying about IBM, Atlassian, Siemens and others in Application Requirements Management."3SL Cradle's most valuable feature is its flexibility in managing all your needs immediately."
"The most valuable features are the baselines and links."
"The "Link by Attribute" feature is useful for making links without needing to use the web interface manually."
"My company contacts the solution's technical support, and they are good and responsive."
"There are many good features with DOORS. The solution has a concept of streams and baselines, as well as a concept of components. A component is a subproject inside a project."
"The tool's most valuable feature is displaying requirements in a tabular format. This means you can see everything laid out in columns and rows. It is more aesthetic compared to other tools. The traceability matrix helps to view things better. It comes with different linking rules."
"One of the most valuable features is how you can tailor the modules."
"As far as maintaining our requirements so that we can have copies of them, it's good. I can print it out if necessary."
"It's web-based, so you don't have anything to install."
"3SL Cradle could be improved with better support for SysML functionalities."
"It does have a tendency to condense the requirements. It kind of puts them in a tree format. Sometimes those trees are a little difficult."
"It offers a bad user experience and the usability is poor."
"Both the data storage and reporting for this solution need improvement."
"The only additional feature would be if it had dynamic linking to other MBSE tool sets or industry-leading tools."
"Be very careful how you load your DNG server. There are limits to the number of artifacts a server can handle."
"As a web tool, DNG can be difficult to use if the server is loaded or your network connection to it is saturated."
"There is room for improvement in the APIs that they have exposed for integration."
"I have come to the conclusion that if you are considering migrating from DOORS to DNG, don't! Instead of spending 100's to 1000's of hours doing migrations, invest those hours in a DXL programmer to make DOORS do what it isn't doing for you now."
