Rakesh T
Project Engineer
5.0

Rakesh: Hello, my name is Rakesh. I'm a product engineer. I work in rail industry and I give five stars for Jama. We tried looking at other things such as using Jira & Confluence for requirements management. We also tried using IBM DOORS. So they were limited in their feature set because they were limited in their integration with other tools and reporting stuff, which is why we chose Jama. The main reason is it integrates with other tools such as Jira & Confluence. It can be used across product management or project management and test management. It has both downstream and upstream relationships where you can do traceability across the entire project lifecycle or product lifecycle. And also the reporting for easy available format like Word or PDF or Excel makes it very handy for reporting, et cetera. Initially it looked very complex, but once you get a hang of it it's very easy when you understand the relationship, how the items work together. So once you're up and running, then it's pretty straightforward, very easy to use. It does a lot of things which you would have been doing in multiple tools. So it's all in one where you can do multiple tasks at the same time. My recommendation would be if you are very much into a requirements based company or requirements based product or project team, I would really suggest Jama because it really simplifies your traceability of requirements, implementation, execution, and traceability during user act, sometimes testing or reporting. So I really suggest using Jama.
