Built-in project management modules simplify processes while compatibility improvements are needed
Codebeamer could improve its customization capabilities and integration options. For instance, older versions of PDM Windchill face compatibility issues with newer versions of Codebeamer, requiring users to downgrade Codebeamer to establish integration. The installation on Linux can be tricky, and backward compatibility needs enhancement. Also, Codebeamer struggles with some DevOps integrations and lacks AI features for enhanced user assistance.

Flexible and stable with excellent technical support
I am the end user. I have a contract to provide testing for customers, however, ultimately the owner of the tool is the customer. For this reason, we're not direct customers. I'd rate the solution at a nine out of ten. I don't like to put 10 due to the fact that I'm sure that something can be improved. That said, if the customer gave me the option to select a product, I'd select SpiraTeam over other tools. The facilities of the tool are more or less the same as the facilities of the ALM or other tools that are in the market. However, the customer support from Inflectra makes you feel like they are working with you. That is the gap in the quality that other options lack. They fix any issue very quickly.

"It is a stable solution."
"One of the most valuable features of Codebeamer is its strong performance."
"Codebeamer stands out against competition due to these features."
"The biggest advantage of Codebeamer is its ability to directly use built-in project management modules without the need for extensive customization."
"Codebeamer is user-friendly"
"CodeBeamer provides full traceability, excellent collaboration, regulatory compliance, and instant reporting with its holistic approach from requirement management to testing."

Cons

"Codebeamer could improve its customization capabilities and integration options."
"We would like to see more industry-specific features that are tailored to the vertical markets."
"The solution has a very small market share in China. It's almost like a startup."

"During migrations from other platforms to CodeBeamer, there have been instances where we encountered issues that required redoing certain tasks."
"Usability needs to be improved."
"I would like to see more, easily trackable reports."
"One improvement could be to reduce the system or server requirements. For a client with a medium configuration server, Codebeamer did not work initially until the system was upgraded."

"They need to continue improving the interface with the third-party options."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is reasonably priced and in accordance with the industry standards."
"Codebeamer is not a cheap solution."
"Pricing is good when compared to similar ALM solutions."
"They're not the most expensive product on the market, but they're not the cheapest either — I'd say codeBeamer ALM is moderately priced."
