Handles user stories well but the lack of a testing module is a problem
Right now I can't say because other stuff is being migrated to Octane. But basically, the testing module that we are used to, that wasn't there at all. If they would have added that into it then they wouldn't even need to build Octane. We did have a list of items we wanted to see added but now they are moving all those things to Octane, and we are also interested in Octane now, so we are not looking to request any more changes to AGM, understanding that this is the go-to tool.

Scrum board feature is highly valuable and handles different user volumes
We have both small-sized and big-sized customers. The small ones generally have around 50 to 200 users. The larger ones, for example, in China, have around 15,000 platform users. So, the number of small companies is high, but the total business value comes from the big companies. Atlassian ALM can handle different user volumes. For customers with more than 500 users, we recommend deploying a high availability (HA) architecture. The solution supports both single-node and HA modes. I would rate the scalability a five out of ten. It could be better in terms of scalability with more users. It could be improved to better handle larger numbers of users. We have clients using Atlassian ALM both in China and globally. We have around 20 clients using this solution.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"How you write your user stories, and the requirements gathering, in Agile Manager is pretty good."
"The most valuable feature is the Scrum board."
"This solution fits very well into our agile product management environment."
"The main power of this tool is the integration between the different products of the Atlassian suite. We have good integration with work management with Java. This is the major strength from this provider."
 

Cons

"The testing module that we are used to, that wasn't there at all."
"There is room for improvement in the high-level project management."
"The reports are not really customizable, which is something that they should improve on."
"The automation for scheduling software and doing software tests should be simplified because it's complex and too rigid."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"There is a community edition available, but if the price were lower for the addons then more people would use the full version."
