### "Using DOORS for mapping the technical requirements."

December 15, 2022

4.0

It is the systematic way of mapping / arranging the requirements and their associated factors/links under one heading. The changes made in the modules fall under one person category which makes it easy to understand who has made the changes, and what are the changes, and analysis comments provide the information of why the changes were made.

Pros

All the attributes are systematically aligned with the required texts.The filtering option can be efficiently used.Multiple users can access/edit a single module using the shareable edit option.

Cons

Sometimes the linking of the requirements takes a lot of time to reflect.The software takes time when multiple people access the same module.

### "Requirement Management Solution for Geotechnical Industry"

September 26, 2022

5.0

IBM Rational Suite products are mostly used by all industries with best features.

Pros

We were using IBM Rational DOORS for Requirement Management, Traceability. Customization using dxl scripting is really interesting feature.

Cons

Cost of solution is not affordable for small scale industry so we need to use sharing based single license for our team.

### "best one to track requirement handling and management"

May 2, 2022

4.0

its good for requirement management and tracking. features like filters, attributes, custom views, export-import support eliminates additional effort. anyway sometimes its little boring to adapt the templates followed by the organization.

Pros

baselines, custom views, attributes, tracing and the traceability reports.

Cons

DOORS need a lot of training in the initial. and doesn't support import of tables and images properly but very rare.

### "Easy to use and understand"

January 1, 2024

4.0

Pros

The interface is quite intuitive. This is so much better than the old DOORS tool -- so much easier to navigate and read. There is a lot of flexibility without making the interface confusing.

Cons

There really isn't anything I dislike about it. It does the job of requirements management well.
