Useful for version control but UI is slow
Pros and Cons
  • "The tool had features similar to Git for version control. It offered branching and merging capabilities, providing better control over code management. Integration was possible with other tools, including some change management tools. The overall process was normal."
  • "The solution's UI is slow compared to other tools. It is an old tool."

What is our primary use case?

We use the tool for configuration management, training, and version control. 

What is most valuable?

The tool had features similar to Git for version control. It offered branching and merging capabilities, providing better control over code management. Integration was possible with other tools, including some change management tools.  The overall process was normal. 

What needs improvement?

The solution's UI is slow compared to other tools. It is an old tool. 

How are customer service and support?

IBM Rational ClearCase is useful and flexible. 

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

How was the initial setup?

The product's deployment was easy and quick. 

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

IBM Rational ClearCase, like any other IBM tool, is expensive. 

What other advice do I have?

I would recommend IBM Rational ClearCase based on customer requirements. Ultimately, the decision should be based on individual circumstances and budget considerations. Some organizations have transitioned away from the tool due to its slow performance and high costs, opting for more powerful systems. I rate it a six out of ten.
