"There is a lot of complexity involved, meaning it can do many things, which can be quite useful."
"The platform provided the flexibility to expand our business processes, accommodating or altering them to suit the requirements of a changing environment."
"Since implementing this solution we have better communication and information exchange with customers."
"CodeBeamer provides full traceability, excellent collaboration, regulatory compliance, and instant reporting with its holistic approach from requirement management to testing."
"Codebeamer's API-based integration and many other integration aspects with other solutions are very powerful."
"The traceability is so simple that I don't need to do any additional configurations related to traceability."
"It is a stable solution."
"Jira's most valuable features are ease of use, simple to understand, and highly flexible. Additionally, you can use kanban or scrum which is a benefit."
"Jira can track projects, time management of assignments, and keep everything on schedule. The performance of the solution is good."
"Great for tracking my development team's productivity."
"The integration between Confluence and Jira, along with Jira's ticketing system, is a valuable feature the product offers its users."
"I've never had a bug or a bug message that I needed to open a ticket for."
"The solution provides users with clarity in terms of the scope of work in a given timeframe."
"Has a good dashboard with good tracking features."
"The most valuable feature is project management."
"The solution has a very small market share in China. It's almost like a startup."

"The product's UI is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"Certain areas in Codebeamer could be improved, like addressing small issues, glitches, or bugs."
"We would like to see more industry-specific features that are tailored to the vertical markets."
"The dashboard reports can be improved. Its dashboard reports are good, but you cannot have complex reports. They are currently very basic. For instance, we can only choose two columns for a dashboard, so it is not friendly enough."
"The reporting needs to be better."
"Performance is something that can always be improved upon in a feature release. Additionally, it would be a benefit to add Markdown in Jira because sometimes it might be better to describe everything in Markdown because it is a common language structure."
"The reporting needs to be improved."
"If I'm comparing it to ALM Octane, the documentation is not as robust as ALM Octane's documentation. So, they can improve on the documentation side."
"Reporting is something Jira could work on. The reporting capabilities should have the same flexibility we see in Excel, including the ability to manipulate data and create graphs. They need to have that, so we don't need to export to a spreadsheet."
"It should be less expensive."
"Jira can improve by making user management better. It is not easy to have visibility of who has the right to do what. Only the administrator has this visibility but there should be the option for other users too."
