codeBeamer ALM vs. OpenText Dimensions RM

In my opinion codeBeamer is well suited for any activity where detailed tracking is needed with teams involved. It can be less suited for small projects which do not last long, or are not continuous, etc

from my point of view its usually suited for a project with 20 to 50 members in it. have more than that may cause issue. because of sharing will be difficult among more people

• Traceability - will allow you to see end to end how requirements are related to each other, to project artifacts, how the requirement was tested, and the implementation code (when using with Serena CM).
• Baselines - these are snapshots in time which are typically used at project phases and milestones. They allow you to see all aspects of a project from requirements to testing and how it has progressed or changed over time.
• Test Management - test steps, execution, defect management are all included in RM, providing a powerful SDLC management platform.

• Search.
• Metric calculation.
• Would be nice that cB is a source of truth, i.e., that say SVN commit is done only from cB; know this is difficult to achieve.

• it is a centralized software so the issue is only one user can have access to software at a given point of time
• some times check-in and check out takes time
• its little difficult for newbies to understand and work with

Sometimes info in codeBeamer can be lost, in principle, if not well organized by the user, info can never be found, or can be forgotten about, etc

Excellent support professionally. Also, thanks for giving me for free access to SaaS cB for my hobbyist project.

codeBeamer is by far better.
