Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros | |
Technical support answers fairly quickly compared to others like IBM or Atlassian. They also offer quite a good knowledge base for advanced cases and how to plan it, etc. via videos that they provide. They are quite useful. | From reporting to team management, everything is better now. The AI and functionality interface are useful. It has a good response time. It improved productivity and increased levels of internal data security. The ability to integrate this solution with other applications is helpful. If there is automation, it comes with improved quality and speed. This solution is open and very easy to integrate. The interface is good too. It provides visibility on release status and readiness. It allows us to easily make linkage and dependencies, with plenty of integrations. |
Cons | |
t is rather slow, so the speed of the process and consuming information should be improved. It doesn't have a nice way of viewing information. We would like to see better interfaces for consuming information. Test management can be improved. It's not so scalable. The user interface needs to split things into small projects. | ALM uses a waterfall approach. We have some hybrid approaches in the company and need a more agile approach. Certain features are lousy. Those features can drag the whole server down. There are times that the complex SQL queries are not easy to do within this solution. They should focus on giving greater value to the IoT and social networks. There needs to be improvement in the requirement samples. At the moment, they are very basic. It needs Pure-FTPd WebUI and single sign-on. The QA needs improvement. |
Pricing and Cost Advice | |
To have a single source for all the requirements and all the change requests our company gets is the most valuable feature. It has also helped us to keep track of reviews. | We have divided our licenses between Micro Focus ALM and ALM Octane. It works for us. It allows us to keep our costs low. I do not want to pay beyond a certain point for this solution. |
