BMC Compuware Topaz Workbench Stability

We have not encountered any stability issues so far. We've gone through two upgrades and we haven't had any issues with the upgrades. If anything, I'm having a hard time keeping up. They put out releases quarterly, and sometimes those quarterly releases have some really nice features, but the process for me to bring that software in, test it, and then roll it out to our end-users, makes it difficult for me to keep up with the rate at which they're putting out releases. But we haven't had any stability problems with it at all.

It's very stable. We haven't had any issues. The biggest hiccup is that Topaz doesn't always play well with the IBM products that we have integrated in our Eclipse environment we have built, when installing it. The person who's doing it has to basically rebuild the Eclipse environment when he puts maintenance on to Topaz.

Once we got the configurations and deployment rolled out, it was very stable. I haven't had any major issues with Eclipse or the Topaz Workbench plugins.

I don't know which vendor plugins didn't like the other vendor plugins. I needed to get to the bottom of it. However, we just started the next release of it, and the components seem to be a lot better this time.

We haven't really encountered stability issues. The only time we have experienced issues thus far is that new releases will occasionally have a bug or two that have to be worked out. But once everything gets in, it's usually pretty stable.

I constantly encounter stability issues. That might be related to how it's installed. We're going through VDI sessions.

I think some of the issues we've had may have been the way it was installed. We did have some issues but it seems to be working now.
