The software has all capoabilities to debug and fix the cide > > **Cons**: It is good for most of the debelopment of applications using java web basd appli atioons for scakable error free applications > > It is easy and good to use for java rekated web development applications ising ibm's web sphere as it options to know the language constructs ----- ### "Suite of development tools." — 5.0/5 > **Joe** | *9 April 2021* | Aviation & Aerospace | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: The software is incredibly powerful for large-scale software development projects. I can't think of any features we needed that were not included in this tool suite. > > **Cons**: Well very powerful it also requires dedicated staff to keep up and running and it is very expensive. This would only be used by large-scale organizations. > > My experience with IBM rational has been positive during my development career. It has stayed abreast of new technologies and development methodologies in software engineering. ----- ### "Enterprise SCM and Planning" — 4.0/5 > **Gil** | *21 February 2020* | Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: RTC includes both SCM (Source Control Manager) and Scrum/Lean Planning both highly customized and linked that is you can force a code to be delivered only after code review (also included) and connected to a planned task owned by the developer and aimed for current sprint plan. As a centralized SCM you are protected from the check-in level. It also has a data warehouse DB being used by the Jazz Reporting Service (also included) which makes it a well designed product. > > **Cons**: It currently has only Eclipse and MS Visual Studio client support which causes an out of the developing tool solution for developers. No offline mode. Not enough community support. > > I've been managing IBM Rational Team Concert for almost 6 years and was able to customized it and support our developers successfully. Support is responsive at most. ----- ### "Complete, feature rich, requirements management software" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *12 February 2019* | Medical Devices | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: DOORS is the most complete and most widely used requirements management software. For medical devices, as well as other highly regulated industries, requirements management is a critical business function. DOORS provides the functionality, traceability, and validity to manage requirements and produce the documentation needed to meet the regulations. DOORS features reduce the risk of missing key requirements, verifications, validations, as well as the flexibility to understand the project as a whole. Managing cross functional reviews of requirements, multiple stakeholders, as well as linked requirements is a huge task that DOORS makes possible with minimal errors. A huge challenge in requirements management is traceability. Tracing requirements to verification, validation, as well as risk analysis, can be very confusing and is prone to errors, but with DOORS these connections can be explicitly defined, and reports or trace documents can be created directly. Also, DOORS scripting allows users to create output documents which can be used as artifacts for the quality system, and shared directly with regulators during audit and for regulatory submissions. > > **Cons**: DOORS has an extensive feature set that covers the whole requirements process. However, these features are not always intuitive to learn. It takes experience to master all of the functionality, and it takes time to become a DOORS master. This is a massive software tool, extensive training or first-hand experience is necessary before it can be used to its full potential. > > DOORS, once learned, is a powerful and critical tool for defining requirements, maintaining requirements, as well as tracing to verification and validation. It is an essential tool for engineering development in any regulated industry. ----- ### "Ease of use+ Comparible= Perfect Application" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *2 November 2018* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: IBM Rational is very easy to use bug tracking tool with excellent quality. It is compatible on all the browsers. It includes all the functionalities and features to give a tester a better way to raise his/her defect. There are different tabs for different use e.g.the Attachment can be attached through Link tabs. > > **Cons**: There is nothing bad in this application. It is very easy compatible and a quality product. > > I am working with a Multi national company from last 6 years as a tester. And have used different tracking tools e.g.: bugzilla Jira etc but Found IBM Rational as the best application including all the features at same place. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.com.sg/software/174710/ibm-rational?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.com.sg/software/174710/ibm-rational) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
