Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It was an all-in-one solution for source code, integrated source control, defect tracking, and project planning."
"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."
"RTC allows us to customize different processes to fit the best projects requirements."
"The most valuable features of the solution are highly customizable reports and visibility for all the higher management."
"Work distribution among team members and accountability for completion with a clearer picture."
"Overall, Workflow allows us to manage our stories, sprints, hydration and releases."
"The best features of this solution are its task management capabilities and integration options, and IBM Engineering Workflow Management provides excellent flexibility and collaborative tools."
"Backlog management is a valuable feature."
"I especially value the complete traceability and ease of use with Microsoft Word."
 

Cons

"It has improved our organization up to an extent, but it certainly has a lot of areas for improvement related to resource management."
"IBM Engineering Workflow Management can be improved by enhancing its pricing structure, specifically the cost and licensing of this solution."
"RTC ignores in this case, that there are other tasks in other parallel iterations. This may cause a user to be overbooked."
"The scalability is not great, a lot of our reports just do not run because there's too much data."
"Customer service is good but not excellent."
"Complex client application and web interface that try to do it all."
"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."
"Only go with this solution if you are not pursuing Agile development."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I've heard IBM Engineering Workflow Management is more expensive than other tools."
"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."
"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."
