I enjoyed working with the software and look forward to further integrating it into our workflows.

Pros

The support is excellent, and the pricing model allows for a low barrier to entry for a small teams like ours. I also like that TraceCloud seems capable of being tailored into a wide range of different requirements workflows.

Cons

The user interface isn't always perfectly intuitive. A good deal of options are accessible primarily through context menus, which occasionally left me uncertain about where in the tree to right-click. That being said, once you get the hang of it, there's no problem.

Alternatives considered

[IBM Engineering Requirements Management DOORS](https://www.capterra.com/p/238454/IBM-Engineering-Requirements-Management-DOORS-Next/)

Reasons for choosing TraceCloud

DOORS is far too expensive for us, and provides features we don't yet need.

After the time spent understanding its logic and how things are tought, it gets intuitive and works as a flow. Now, I have my requirements sorted and can easily control which level of access different stakeholders have to them, do version tracking and export them in different and editable templates for MS Word and Excel. This being said, I'm satisfied with Tracecloud, and am having a positive experience working with it.

Pros

It is a sctrictly methodical product, so when you take advantage of all of its functionalities correctly, the management of requirements within projects gets as reliable as it can get.

Cons

As TraceCloud prioritizes reliability and strict methods, it doesn't have the most user friendly interface. The overall look on the pages are great, but sometimes you need to stop and analyse the options to comprehend the logic behind finding one or other resource. It takes some getting used to it.

Alternatives considered

[Microsoft Excel](https://www.capterra.com/p/176574/Excel/)

Reasons for choosing TraceCloud

Functionality and long term perspective of keeping the project organized and reliable. I've also considered ReqIf, but it isn't available on the options above.

At CONAE, the Argentina Space Agency, we are evaluating TraceCloud to support the Requirements Engineering process, using an actual case, for the development of a whole Launch Vehicle, starting from Agency/Stakeholder needs through mission requirements down to system and subsystem levels, including topics such as payload, rocket propulsion, structures, avionics, range safety, among others. Beyond the conventional functionalities expected from such tools, I want to underscore the remarkable flexibility and responsiveness exhibited by the TraceCloud team. Their adeptness at identifying, developing, and deploying requested features in a timely manner stands out as a significant advantage. This agility enables us to tailor the platform to our team's specific needs, organizational nuances, and requirements management policies swiftly, often within weeks. This, in my opinion, is where TraceCloud truly shines – not merely as a tool but as a collaborative partner seamlessly integrated into our organization. As an illustration, to represent our approach to team collaboration we requested a comments/Request for Action management feature, which empowers any team member to issue comments and track its resolution, and participate in accepting or rejecting the proposed resolutions. The resulting threaded comments foster online discussions akin to a social network, facilitating seamless collaboration among requirements owners, system engineers, project managers, and other stakeholders. Moreover, in response to our needs, the TraceCloud team promptly introduced a feature to trigger an approval workflow reset when specific changes are made to a requirement context, for example in case an up trace is modified or deleted. Additionally, we were able to configure the tool to enforce prerequisites, such as prohibiting the initiation of an approval workflow if at least one upstream trace is undefined. This capability proved invaluable in addressing certain challenges unique to our operations. Our discussions with TraceCloud also encompassed potential integration of the platform with other tools we utilize. These discussions further underscored TraceCloud's commitment to adaptability and interoperability, reinforcing our confidence in its suitability for our diverse needs. In light of the above, I endorse TraceCloud for its versatility, responsiveness, and collaborative approach, making it an invaluable asset in our Space/ Aerospace System Engineering endeavors.

Pros

Exceptional support and responsiveness for Customization

Cons

We keep testing it. So far, all those features that were not already available and could be considered a con, have been solved.

Overall, for the price, this tool is a great one to have though it has some limitations. If you're looking for traceability and version management as your primary asks, then this is a go to tool for requirements management.

Pros

The traceability (Trace Tree feature) is what I like the most in this tool. Once you export the tracetree into an excel file, what you see is different heirarchy of requirements and test cases and reports neatly organised and is a visual treat.

Cons

The reporting feature needs customisation and client's documentation templates friendly

I have found Tracecloud to be a very simple tool to use, and effective at task management. It is a software that I would strongly consider when selecting a tool to manage large volume of tasks with large groups of people.

Pros

It is simple to setup, with great flexibility for user-defined roles and attributes. Tracing and change logs are accurate and easy to access. Organization of tasks is very structured and intuitive.

Cons

I would like to see more dashboard features, with presentations ranging from high-level to low-level for different users.
