"Great ALM for Regulated Industries"

4.5/5

What do you like best about codebeamer?

The codeBeamer platform is incredibly flexible and allows endless user customization to build the ALM solution that fits best for the user. The ease at which new Trackers can be implemented allows our team quickly add new sections to our deployment, making for a very complete solution. Tracker Document View and Microsoft Office export are extremely powerful and allow us to build functionality not found many other places. Support is top-notch and quick to respond. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about codebeamer?

Some codeBeamer-provided templates are still a work in progress. Templates and webinars don't always give detailed examples, sometimes making it difficult to understand relevancy of features. Wiki-based documentation is sometimes not up to date. Installation and upgrade process can be tricky in certain deployment scenarios. All relatively minor issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is codebeamer solving and how is that benefiting you?

codeBeamer allows us to have a Single Source of Truth for all of our product documentation, which allows our entire team to always be on the same page. The system allows us to do data entry once early in the project, and to link and format that data for use throughout the rest of the project lifecycle and documentation effort.

4.5/5

What do you like best about codebeamer?

I like that it gives user the one stop solution to get their applications checked from testing till the release. I have used codebeamer and am a great fan of it. I was wondering about best efforts that the developer have put in to bring the best to the world. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about codebeamer?

Only thing I want for a change in codebeamer is of website issues so that has nothing to do with your developer section :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering codebeamer:

It is a good service give it a shot before inferring any thing out of it. It has so many features that can be useful and helpful in you development cycle of your application and after that as well. If I were to choose a ALM out of the available one I would have selected this one. This makes life easier as a administrator manifolds. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The best ALM Tool I've worked with!"

4.5/5

What do you like best about codebeamer?

The fact that you can centralize The fact that you can centralize all relevant information of a project in the same place, and more important, manage permissions and roles among the members, is a huge step forward when a new development process is to be set.

The traceability among issues in the project is the next huge advantage when working with a ALM tool… At the end, is the most important part when you want to achieve re-usability in your process and moreover when you have to solve an error in your system.

The customization possibilities that Codebeamer offers is also a stark argument. Each product, each process and each company is different! You can tailor the application almost as you wish!

And for sure the team behind Codebeamer! The support you receive from Intland is a key feature to take into account! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about codebeamer?

The customization possibilities could be better... You can configure the whole system ALMOST as you wish!

Some fixed configuration in Codebeamer are not logical or at least not everyone can understand them... Here Codebeamer can improve! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Excellent ALM tool"

4.5/5

What do you like best about codebeamer?

The best thing about codeBeamer is its high degree of integration. This can provide traceability from the customer need through requirements down to source code and test cases. Many other products require additional plugins or other applications to provide the functionality that codeBeamer has out of the box. The best part about that is it just works!

The Intland team us also very responsive to questions and feature requests. There have been several items I have asked about that have then been implemented in the next few releases.

The fact that Intland eats their own dogfood is also great! All feature requests and bug reports go right into codeBeamer and you can tell they use it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about codebeamer?

Sometimes certain features lack some polish to get them to market faster. However, this is usually rectified in one or two release cycles (less than a year.)

Some of the documentation is disorganized but it is still fairly comprehensive and some of the best documentation I have seen. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering codebeamer:

Definitely try it out. They have a free trial which is a great way to check it out and see how it can be tailored to fit your processes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is codebeamer solving and how is that benefiting you?

Requirements management, issue tracking and version control are the main tasks we use codeBeamer to accomplish. We have recently started using it as a primary tasking tool to keep our teams working smarter not harder. This has reduced the number of full team meeting we have to perform saving us countless man-hours. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about codebeamer?

I think the product is very well rounded but has trouble handling large datasets for linking different aspects. We deal with huge numbers of items and the AJAX functionality doesn't always handle those details very well. Overall there isn't much to dislike about the product. It is very well thought out.
