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.

Unified platform streamlines workflows though user interface needs improvement
The most valuable feature of PTC Integrity is its integration with our existing PTC tools, especially for drawing release activities. By using PTC Integrity, we have a unified platform that eliminates the need to switch between different systems for hardware and software tasks. This integration fosters real-time collaboration, allowing vendors to efficiently transfer details and share data through PTC Integrity. The platform also enables us to raise reports that other team members can access and utilize. Furthermore, the stable nature of the solution enhances its value, contributing to seamless operations.

"We found the requirement management and the version control features to be the most useful for our client."
"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 solution is flexible in terms of customization. You can bend and reformat it in many ways. You can also customize the APIs and public functions."
"The most valuable feature is traceability starting from the requirements until the end of a project."
"Complete traceability as per process requirements."
"It's a good tool to manage software versions, update the status, and manage tasks."
"We have been using it because it gives certain abilities in the automotive industry, such as auditing or keeping track of information."
"The most valuable feature of PTC Integrity is its integration with our existing PTC tools, especially for drawing release activities."
 

Cons

"The primary challenge is adapting the standard product to our workflows and specific needs."
"Codebeamer is not completely compatible with our internal network setup."
"It would be helpful if Codebeamer's overall processing and integration with software like Jira could be improved."
"Usability needs to be improved."
"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."
"The product's UI is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"Codebeamer's UI is somewhat boring, while Jira's is more exciting and user-friendly."
"The solution has a very small market share in China. It's almost like a startup."
"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."
"I would like to see better integration from the architectural side."
"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."
"There are not enough reports. People would like to see something similar to what is available in JIRA."
"It's not so customizable. Compared to other tools, defining user stories is a slightly more cumbersome process as an ALM engineer."
"The web version does not have all the functionalities of the non-web version. Administration and adding/removing fields, etc. cannot be done on the web version. People want solutions that are compatible with Android. I also want to have a version by which I can bulk edit all the fields."
"We are unhappy because everything that we needed required customization and this is not a plug-and-play type of solution at all."
"It's not easy to plan on this solution and it's not user-friendly. The interface should be more like a web interface. It's not easy to use."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

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