Agile planning has improved daily coordination but reporting and dashboards still need more flexibility
I would like to see more advanced reporting and analytics customization. The existing dashboards are useful for tracking velocity, backlog, and delivery, but deeper real-time insights would improve decision-making. I would also like simpler integrations and more flexibility, especially across large teams and complex projects. Another improvement I would like is more flexible reporting and dashboard customization, especially for creating organization-specific metrics. More intuitive visualizations would also help. Digital.ai Agility can be improved mainly by making reporting and dashboard customization more flexible and intuitive. I would also like simpler integrations with third-party tools and easier configurations of automated workflows. Better dependency visualizations and real-time alerts for delivery risk would help large teams identify blockers earlier. The user interface could also be simplified to make it easier for new users. Overall, these improvements would make day-to-day planning, reporting, and cross-team coordination more efficient. There are a few areas where improvements are needed. I would like to see further improvements in user experience and navigation, especially making commonly used features easier to access for new users. More intuitive dashboard customization, better dependency visualization, and simpler third-party integrations would also help.

Manages multiple releases seamlessly
We have done some work with companies, probably four or five years ago and found the ability to manage multiple releases simultaneously as a main advantage, especially in complex programs with multiple concurrent releases. Running automated tests against back-level versions in certain environments is possible, and newer versions can be tested as well. It creates constant visibility into the test process, showing the status, bugs, and automated test results. It is a solid product in large corporations in Denmark, ensuring everyone knows where the process stands. There is a good understanding of what is critical, allowing prioritization of test cases.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"For visualization capabilities, the automation capabilities make it possible to support the different personas. The features and capabilities are excellent and come with excellent support."
"With some of the other tools, you have to buy 20 different plugins to get to the same capability that comes with the basic Agility capability."
"It can generate reports showing a burndown chart, burnup chart, and the planned vs actual velocity."
"VersionOne delivers a total ALM solution for whether you are operating a single team, like Scrum and Kanban for IT operations, or implementing an agile enterprise approach, like SAFe."
"I prefer Agility out of the three applications we work with because it has the most flexibility and can work at a higher level."
"The most valuable thing is kind of the whole package together."
"You can use Digital.ai Agility for automating your tasks and creating your dashboard."
"Overall, the biggest benefits have been better delivery visibility, improved planning, faster decision-making, and reduced administrative effort."
"What they do best is test management. That's their strong point."
"I personally found the defect tracking feature very useful in my ongoing project."
"So the first impression that hits me about HP UFT 14.0 (formerly QTP) is that it seems to be a whole lot faster! But that could be subjective, as I'm running it on a high end gaming system."
"The processes of both test execution and test tracking have become more transparent, and we use it for big SAP implementations, which provides ROI after the first project."
"We're able to more accurately document our test results, our actual versus our expected results, with the new screenshot functionality."
"The application itself tends to be very stable, but when switching to an open-source website, that's where the issues are."
"Traceability of bugs to script execution (Test Lab) to Script (Test Plan) to Requirements, Easy to use."
"For testing processes and improvements, I would suggest you use this product."
 

Cons

"There is room for improvement in getting the analytics portion of the solution more integrated with the rest of it."
"The response from Digital.ai Agility is a little bit slow and could be faster."
"Improve how to create and track releases. Currently, I have to create child projects."
"It was not supporting some plugins. We wanted to migrate data that we were already using."
"The user interface can be improved by adding Save, Edit, Add, Cancel, and Return buttons to the popup windows that are displayed when you click on a child item."
"The machine learning features are a new capability but could be improved. This is being worked by Digital.ai currently. Multicolor simulation, specifically, could be improved."
"The user interface could also be simplified to make it easier for new users."
"In my work as a contractor, it's always frustrating when a client has multiple software applications that don't talk to each other and they all perform the same function. That presents a huge challenge between their IT groups."
"I'd like to see the idea of users being flushed out more, so not just, "This defect is now assigned to a particular person," or "This person is assigned to execute a test.""
"HPE ALM’s out-of-the-box reporting can be perceived as rigid and limited, to an extent."
"We had problems with Solution Manager/SAP integration and use through customizing RFC calls."
"Performance issues are very common. The degradation of performance and consequent failures continuously happen."
"I'm disappointed with the support as they're not reactive enough."
"The UFT tests don't work very well and it seems to depend on things as simple as the screen resolution on a machine that I've moved to."
"Full product is very complex plus the licensing left much to be improved."
"Backup strategy is lacking in QC. Once the QC server crashes, all your automation artifacts are unrecoverable."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Comparing the pricing to other products, I think this solution is in the middle."
"You get what you pay for. Don't let your development teams dictate what the portfolio management team should use as the main tool."
"We pay around $30,000 for thirty users, translating to approximately $6,000 to $10,000 per user, which is high."
"I've never been in the procurement process for it. I don't think it is cheap. Some of the features can be quite expensive."
"ALM Quality Center is a little bit costly."
"HPE has one of the most rigid, inflexible, and super expensive license models."
"It has several limitations in adapting its agility easily."
"We have divided our licenses between Micro Focus ALM and ALM Octane. It works for us."
"For pricing, I recommend to buy a bundled package. Check the HPE site for more details."
"Seat and concurrent licensing models exist; the latter is recommended if a large number of different users will be utilizing the product."
