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

"The solution is excellent for collaboration; from the agility point of view, they have very good sprint functionality, allowing you to set up sprints effectively."

"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 allows my clients to have one central tool to manage their agile projects."

"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."

"It can generate reports showing a burndown chart, burnup chart, and the planned vs actual velocity."

"You can use Digital.ai Agility for automating your tasks and creating your dashboard."

"Digital.ai Agility helped our organization define the Enterprise Value Streams, and in the tool you can derive all user stories, features, and epics from the top-level portfolio items and value streams so any work that is done must contribute to the value streams, otherwise it should be questioned why that effort is being executed."

"Agility is highly flexible. It can do much more than what our client is doing with it. They use it in a defined way. Some at that company have a much broader knowledge of agile and SAFe, but they're given applications and a mandated way to work. We had to work within their parameters and provide an accurate transition so the data would be mapped and pushed through."

More Digital.ai Agility pros

"For me and for our organization, it's a really good product; I'm really happy with it and it meets my needs completely."

"We were able to manage test cases effectively when we were using it. It worked well for us."

"Defects and Test management were earlier conducted with the help of Excel sheets, and now they are tracked in the Quality Center leading to accountability, dashboards, and being tracked in a single place."

"Use all that this product can offer as there is no need to buy others that can do the same tasks that HP Quality Center does."

"Because of global test documentation, testing can be resourced most effectively each test cycle (including outsourcing)."

"I found the ease of use most valuable in Micro Focus ALM Quality Center. Creating test cases is easier because the solution allows writing in Excel."

"Quality Center has improved my organization from a traceability and test coverage point of view."

"It centralized all the defects in our organization."

Cons

"It was not supporting some plugins. We wanted to migrate data that we were already using."

"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."

"The user interface could also be simplified to make it easier for new users."

"Improve how to create and track releases. Currently, I have to create child projects."

"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 response from Digital.ai Agility is a little bit slow and could be faster."

"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."

"There is room for improvement in getting the analytics portion of the solution more integrated with the rest of it."

"Requirements management could be improved as the use is very limited. E.g., they have always stated that, "You can monitor and create requirements," but it has its limitations. That's why companies will choose another requirements management solution and import data from that source system into Quality Center. Micro Focus has also invested in an adapter between Dimensions RM and ALM via Micro Focus Connect. However, I see room for improvements in this rather outdated tool. I feel what Micro Focus did is say, "Our strategy is not to improve these parts within the tool itself, but search for supported integrations within our own tool set." This has not been helpful."

"Pricing is very big, so it's good to negotiate with its vendors. The solution is not so important and should not cost so much."

"Micro Focus ALM Quality Center could improve how the automation process works. Addiotnlally, the parallel execution needs to be optimized. For example, if multiple users, which are two or more users, are doing an execution, while we execute the cases, I have seen some issues in the progress."

"I think the biggest challenge with ALM is getting useful data in one place."

"I am not an end user so I can't really say. But, I would like to see improvement in the price."

"Licensing model is relatively expensive compared to alternate solutions."

"There is room for improvement in the scalability and stability of the solution."

"We would like to have support for agile development."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"You get what you pay for. Don't let your development teams dictate what the portfolio management team should use as the main tool."

"Comparing the pricing to other products, I think this solution is in the middle."

"The solution is priceed high."

"Micro Focus ALM Quality Center is very expensive."

"The solution was expensive for us."

"The cost of licensing depends on the number of VMs that you are running test cases on and it is not cheap."

"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."

"The licensing fee is a little expensive."

"I don't know the exact numbers, but I know it is pricey. When we talked to the sales reps we work with from our company, they say, "Well, Micro Focus will never lose on price." So, they are willing to do a lot of negotiating if it is required."

"This is an expensive solution."
