Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Atlassian, Nutanix and others in Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) Suites."The solution is fast and very accessible."
"The initial setup and configuration are straightforward and relatively simple."
"Micro Focus ALM Quality Center is a very good test management tool especially for writing test cases and uploading. You can even upload the test cycles from Excel. You get the defects and the reports, and also some automation using EFT which works with ALM."
"Ability to customize modules, particularly Defect Tracking module on company specific needs"
"The most valuable Quality Center feature, I find, is the solution's integration with some of our automation tools. For us, the ability to capture and record and the ease of use from a user perspective, are all key."
"ALM is a well-known product and is one of the pioneers in providing test management facilities with a 360 degree view of requirements."
"ALM Quality Center's best features are the test lab, requirement tab, and report dashboard."
"Produces good reports and has a great traceability feature."
"I like the traceability, especially between requirements, testing, and defects."
"It allows us to easily make linkage and dependencies, with plenty of integrations."
"It would be great if they worked more closely with other solutions. There needs to be better integration with the platform for development purposes."
"They need to continue improving the interface with the third-party options."
"We are looking for more automation capabilities."
"There is room for improvement in the scalability and stability of the solution."
"There's room for improvement in the requirements traceability with Micro Focus ALM Quality Center. That could use an uplift."
"Quality Center's UI is outdated, and it's a little bit slow on the login part and different parts of the application. That's why we're switching solutions. I believe most companies are switching to Octane or something else. Micro Focus should enhance the interface and reports."
"Sometimes I do run my queries from the admin login. However, if I want to reassess all my test cases, then I am still doing this in a manual manner. I write SQL queries, then fire them off. Therefore, a library of those SQL queries would help. If we could have a typical SQL query to change the parameters within test cases, then this is one aspect I can still think that could be included in ALM. Though they would need to be analyzed and used in a very knowledgeable way."
"We operate in Sweden, and there are not so many Swedish people that know the product."
"I would like to be able to search easier, not just do SQL queries, being able to do free keyword searches on the data. That's valuable."
"HPE ALM’s out-of-the-box reporting can be perceived as rigid and limited, to an extent."
