Codebeamer Reviews Summary
Author infoRatingReview Summary
Architect at itcinfotech3.5I use Codebeamer primarily for requirements management due to its efficient built-in project management modules, though it faces challenges with customization, Linux installation, and older PDM Windchill compatibility. Its web-based client saves time and resources.
Software Engineer at Festo AG4.0I use Codebeamer mainly for Kanban boards, release and sprint management, and access control. It's stable and functional but outdated, with a dull UI. While helpful, it could improve in scalability and user-friendliness for newcomers.
Independent Technical Consultant at i4c4.0I find Codebeamer ideal for automotive projects, especially for medium-sized companies, due to its economical nature and extensive integration capabilities. However, it requires server upgrades and its drag-and-drop feature needs improvement. It has boosted our ROI effectively.
Process Method and Tool Developer at ZF Group NAO4.0<p>I've used Codebeamer for several years and value its integrated toolset, especially for R&amp;D, but wish it had better speed, user interface customization, and support for promised features like working sets and Pure Variants integration.</p>
National Manager - PLM Business at a computer software company with 201-500 employees4.5We explored Codebeamer for building our ALM practice but deferred for PLM focus with our OEM. Its requirements management aids industries with standards. However, more integration tools are needed. Codebeamer competes with IBM Rational and Siemens Polarion.
Solutions Architect at Capgemini3.5I use CodeBeamer to align business requirements and processes, appreciating its flexibility compared to outdated tools like Arvines and Jira. However, during platform migrations, some tasks needed to be redone, indicating room for improvement in this area.
Process Method and Tool Developer at a transportation company with 10,001+ employees4.0I primarily use Codebeamer for lifecycle management, appreciating its integration and stability. However, it lacks maturity compared to Jira, needing better document integration and customization options to simplify its complex UI for specific user roles.
Manager at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees3.5We utilize Codebeamer for managing requirements, tasks, and issues within the V-model framework. While it's user-friendly, adapting it to specific workflows poses challenges, and we're collaborating with PTC to address certain issues, ensuring smoother integration.
