Looking to learn more about Requirements Management software similar to ReqView? Check out these popular alternatives that are closest in terms of key features, functionality, and benefits.
Pros
In my previous job I used DOORs as requirement management tool, ReqView is giving me the same experience of it but at reasonable price.
It is easy to learn (we have only needed the online documentation) and the pricing makes it a no-brainer to start playing with.
Cons
So actually part of this pain is eased. Procedural rules, the delegation of formal rights etc. is not part of the software.
Realtime Collaboration ist not yet implemented. Working two or more people on same documents sometimes is difficult.
"Perfect tool for requirement management"
Overall: In my previous job I used DOORs as requirement management tool, ReqView is giving me the same experience of it but at reasonable price! It is easy to use and to install and it helps me on managing requirements, SRS and test cases document with a new project with an external company.
Pros: It is impressive the easiness and efficient way to build up links across requirements for traceability purpose. In addition, the tool is very easy to customize adding new attributes, new links! Very good importing capabilities from Reqif standard format which allow collaboration with main companies who are using DOORS for example. Support is also magnificent!
Cons: even if most of editing feature are quite good, editing is not at the same level of Word which is the standard de-facto. Sometime is difficult to manage table. Just another small glitch, while looking at the doc, column width is not sized accordingly to width of the table and this cause overlap on other columns next to each.

"A super effective tool for designers"
Overall: As a company, we appreciate the look and feel of the ReqView software, that is very much accessible for people working in a creative technical environment. Installation and maintenance is simple and the cost is very reasonable. As responsible for the implementation I have received substantial support from the ReqView team. Quite some wishes have resulted in features in the software (linked object hoover-over preview f.e.). Needles to say that I feel taken serious by ReqViews development team and that I am grateful for this We are confident about its use in the future.
Pros: One of the main benefits of ReqView is that it focusses really on the content that I am interested in as a designer in a product development process. There is little administrative and procedural overhead (clutter) in the program as well as in the user interface. This enables to view/read information paragraphs-wise almost like in word processing software. Having all information linked is fantastic for traceability and relative new to us, solving a documentation issue that could not realistically be solved with simple Office SW like Excel, Word etc.. ReqView is so simple that my compete design team can manage it, which is a great benefit over alternatives. The learning curve is steep, but really short (excluding HTML-programming). A super feature is the export into Word or PDF resulting in a compact document in which all linkage is still functional! How happy would I be as a client receiving such project documentation! Fantastic! Besides, also digital signing now is an option, a future must have!
Cons: The HTML programming needed for custom reports is something that you need to master, but from that point it offers many nice options. The recent ReqView update includes a wizard helping in this, which enables to create simple reports in under 30 seconds. So actually part of this pain is eased. Procedural rules, the delegation of formal rights etc. is not part of the software. Though we benefit from this, I can imagine that stricter application (quality systems) could ask for such functionality. However, we don't miss that at the moment.
