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."

"The most valuable feature of TFS is integration."

"The price could be cheaper."
"TFS is scalable with different Microsoft tools for test management but it is not scalable with other third-party tools."

It was nice to use in the past, but it is not as flexible now with the changing development environments and methodologies."
"The interface can be improved and made more user-friendly."
