Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"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.""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."

"It's a good tool to manage software versions, update the status, and manage tasks.""Complete traceability as per process requirements.""The tool is quite structured and has a good command set.""We have been using it because it gives certain abilities in the automotive industry, such as auditing or keeping track of information.""PTC Integrity has good stability.""The solution is flexible in terms of customization. You can bend and reformat it in many ways. You can also customize the APIs and public functions.""I personally like PTC Integrity because it provides everything within the software. You can store and access your data and perform various tasks. Compared to other products, I find it user-friendly, which can sometimes feel complex. I think PTC Integrity is user-friendly, making it nice to use. The tool is easier to learn.""The most valuable feature is traceability starting from the requirements until the end of a project."

Cons
"Teams need clearer pictures of resource availability in charts and dashboards along with plans.""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.""The solution is very heavily vendor dependent.""Some administrative tasks are difficult to perform. These could be simplified.""Lacks ability to customize and reporting can be slow."

More IBM Engineering Workflow Management Cons →

"I would like to see better integration from the architectural side.""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.""There are not enough reports. People would like to see something similar to what is available in JIRA.""We are unhappy because everything that we needed required customization and this is not a plug-and-play type of solution at all.""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.""From my experience over the years, I believe there might be room for improvement in PTC Integrity. While it's already a good product, it tends to be slower than other software. When it becomes bulky, it slows down even more, sometimes leading to crashes or hangs that require restarting the computer before being able to use PTC Integrity again. This has been my experience multiple times.""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.""The tool's web-based UI needs improvement. Some functionalities don't work yet, and querying items is slow. Also, it's not in the cloud yet. I don't know if they'll do it in the future because they already have core agreements with customers. If they offer these functionalities, customers will likely buy their product."

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