Featured Reviews

SHRINIVAS ALAGERI - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
Neha Wanjari - PeerSpot reviewer
Helps to create tasks, change requests and documentation
I personally like PTC Integrity because it provides everything within the software. You can store and access your data and perform various tasks. Compared to other products, I find it user-friendly, which can sometimes feel complex. I think PTC Integrity is user-friendly, making it nice to use. The tool is easier to learn. The tool has a dashboard that details our projects and products, including the number of tasks, change requests, and their statuses (incomplete or complete). Having all this data within the solution makes collaborating easy for our project team. Unlike using multiple tools, having everything we need in one software platform is convenient. I rate the tool's user experience and interface a nine point five out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable aspect is the integration with third-party tools, as we don't have to use different tools to start from the stakeholder requirements down to subsystems."
"Codebeamer is user-friendly"
"The platform provided the flexibility to expand our business processes, accommodating or altering them to suit the requirements of a changing environment."
"Other benefits observed from using Codebeamer include its excellent release management and access management features."
"Codebeamer stands out against competition due to these features."
"Codebeamer's API-based integration and many other integration aspects with other solutions are very powerful."
"There is a lot of complexity involved, meaning it can do many things, which can be quite useful."
"One of the most valuable features of Codebeamer is its strong performance."
"It's a good tool to manage software versions, update the status, and manage tasks."
"The most valuable feature is traceability starting from the requirements until the end of a project."
"The most valuable feature of PTC Integrity is its integration with our existing PTC tools, especially for drawing release activities."
"PTC Integrity has good stability."
"The tool is quite structured and has a good command set."
"I personally like PTC Integrity because it provides everything within the software. You can store and access your data and perform various tasks. Compared to other products, I find it user-friendly, which can sometimes feel complex. I think PTC Integrity is user-friendly, making it nice to use. The tool is easier to learn."
"We found the requirement management and the version control features to be the most useful for our client."
"Complete traceability as per process requirements."
 

Cons

"The primary challenge is adapting the standard product to our workflows and specific needs."
"Usability needs to be improved."
"During migrations from other platforms to CodeBeamer, there have been instances where we encountered issues that required redoing certain tasks."
"Codebeamer's UI is somewhat boring, while Jira's is more exciting and user-friendly."
"It would be helpful if Codebeamer's overall processing and integration with software like Jira could be improved."
"It's still a fairly new tool that lacks maturity right now."
"Certain areas in Codebeamer could be improved, like addressing small issues, glitches, or bugs."
"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."
"We are unhappy because everything that we needed required customization and this is not a plug-and-play type of solution at all."
"There are not enough reports. People would like to see something similar to what is available in JIRA."
"For complex businesses, the internal templates could have more flexibility and compatibility."
"The tool's web-based UI needs improvement. Some functionalities don't work yet, and querying items is slow. Also, it's not in the cloud yet. I don't know if they'll do it in the future because they already have core agreements with customers. If they offer these functionalities, customers will likely buy their product."
"To be honest, the third controller system is kind of old. There are lots of transactional changes that have not been implemented in PTC. If you have a larger project, for example, whenever you give bits and need to change 10,000 files you can just commit them. But here the work style is a little more file based, so you'll have to take care of almost all the files individually. It's not a single commit like you do here, but rather you have to allocate time for each component or file that you want to check in or commit. That's a very big issue."
"It's not so customizable. Compared to other tools, defining user stories is a slightly more cumbersome process as an ALM engineer."
"The user-friendliness of PTC Integrity can be improved. The interface is not intuitive for first-time users and takes time to get accustomed to."
"I would like to see better integration from the architectural side."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Codebeamer is not a cheap solution."
"Pricing is good when compared to similar ALM solutions."
"It is reasonably priced and in accordance with the industry standards."
"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."
"The product is expensive."
