IBM Rational DOORS Primary Use Case
DOORS facilitates the adoption of a chain toward DevOps architectures. Using all the IBM Rational tools, we can trace all activities related to a project, from beginning to design to development.
For example, we use Rational Rhapsody to design models, incorporate requirements, and then generate software from those models. We also use Rational Team Concert to plan tests and Jenkins for continuous delivery.

Senior Integration System Engineer at NATS (En Route) Plc
The solution is used to meet the requirements of system design from the user level to the supplier level, let's say. So it is used to have all the requirements integrated into only one database and link them with the different suppliers or stakeholders. So that's the main use, and we use it for those databases, basically.

Sr. Director, Software Engineering Director at a healthcare company with 501-1,000 employees
We used DOORS to elicit and gather user needs and then document them. We would then document these needs with diagrams and pictures that could be used to implement products and tests. We also used it for traceability purposes.
System engineers, software requirements engineers, software development engineers, software manual test engineers, software automated test engineers, software DevOps teams — these were the people who mainly used this solution.

Technical Sales Specialist at a computer software company with 1,001-5,000 employees
I use DOORS to support my customers, who are heavy users of the tool. I try to figure out what's wrong whenever they have some issues. For example, if they need some help, I use the tool to recreate my customers' environments and work with it to find solutions for them. About 10 people in my company do the same thing as me.

We use it to manage requirements. For the defense projects, we basically do a waterfall design methodology. So, we input the customer's requirements at the top level, and we flow down through all of the design requirements and the testing requirements. We keep it all managed through DOORS.

We had a large number of requirements coming in as a federal contractor and we put them in DOORS. We did exports from that to map those requirements to what we were doing and the architecture that we were building. We did that in MagicDraw, which we attempted to integrate with DOORS.
