The biggest challenge was finding the appropriate resource balancing for the enterprise release. It is not very clear how that was going to be implemented due to documentation in 2010.

If there is a need for third-party integration, the documentation is not very good. We were able to integrate with FIT, but it took a very capable programmer to figure out how to do it. Again, this was in 2010. Hopefully, the documentation has improved.

At Verizon we are 'clients' on a supported application base. Application project teams are supported with domains and projects within a central installation. We didn't deploy the application, per se.

Over a seventeen year period, yes. The key to maintaining a site today is in patch management. Keep the patches up to date.

There are a lot of nuances with integrations and implementation of Quality Center and third-party applications. With proper planning and expertise guidance, issues with deployment can be resolved. I have not encountered any issues with deployment that could not be resolved.

When we were installing v10, the installation became corrupted. So when we upgraded to v11, it was very expensive, and at our own cost, to do. This was regardless of our maintenance contract with HP.
