Cons
"The testing module that we are used to, that wasn't there at all."

More Agile Manager [EOL] Cons →

"One of Polarion's shortcomings would be planning. It can handle plans, but the planning feature is very basic.""The ease-of-use could be improved a little.""The tool needs to improve its planning. It also needs to add more integrations.""The solution's editing capabilities need improvement.""The user interface is not yet optimized.""As Polarion ALM is a development-oriented tool, easy support or easy access is provided by default, but if I want to use detailed features, I need to write the script, particularly the VM script, and this is its area for improvement. I want Polarion ALM to have a graphical user interface that doesn't need scripting. In the next release of the tool, I'd like for it to not require scripting and programming because needing to run script language is time-consuming.""The configuration aspect of the solution is not easy. A person needs a lot of programming knowledge in order to successfully handle the job.""The weak point of Polarion ALM software is about reporting and time for extraction of the data...The quality of reporting needs to improve."
