    Mainly used in release management where all deployments are well managed and processed further based on the approval system. Complete enterprise-level solution with minor difficulties which need to be added to product improvement features. Integration with other CI-CD tools makes it easier to perform tasks in terms of release and deployments.

    CollabNet TeamForge is more well-suited for technically knowledgeable users such as developers, systems analysts, QA but not for non-technical users due to the technical data used throughout the tool. CollabNet TeamForge is appropriate for most applications development. In any industry especially suited for high demand software delivery environments.

    Pros
    Digital.ai (formerly XebiaLabs, CollabNet VersionOne, and Arxan)
    • Cross-team release workflow control using email, texts, scripts allow our release management to be truly a 360 process.
    • XL Release allowing our Jenkins toolchain to control the beginning of release trains which is very powerful.
    • XL release allows us to expose the business process flow for anyone to read direct at the source which runs the process instead of a separate vision.

    • I would like to see personalization for managing artifacts, that is, allowing the user to customize pages and save personalized settings and then save them as bookmarks.
    • I would like an improved subversion browser such as a graphical user interface rather than a basic file explorer.
    • I would like built in features for CollabNet TeamForge integrated with subversion so that i can associate my private code branches and code changes.

    Usability
    Digital.ai (formerly XebiaLabs, CollabNet VersionOne, and Arxan)
    The tool is easy to use, easy to navigate and learn. Manages releases with proper approvals in a systematic manner. Though it needs minor improvements in terms of pagination (data loading), access management, but, overall the tool helps in increasing productivity and less time for production deployments.

    Support Rating
    Digital.ai (formerly XebiaLabs, CollabNet VersionOne, and Arxan)
    Support is not good at all. To this day, I have to mail my queries and their support site does not log in for me (me alone). But, upon contacting many times, no one helps with a proper response. Though good thing is, I get a proper response over mail too. But, being informative about the tool and not on the issues faced by users outside of the process to get support should also be addressed equally. Which is currently missing in support.

    They always answer the phone when we put a call in, any time. They have consistently sent out contractors when needed and were there every step of the way when we switched over from ClearCase to TeamForge years ago. The support is what you really pay for when you buy into TeamForge.

    XL release is simpler to configure and deploy to the organization than other change management platforms I have used. That simplicity has minor drawbacks requiring you to fit into a limited set of control methods but that exercise helped us simplify a needlessly onerous process.

    CollabNet TeamForge is superior to Mercury mainly because it has a subversion change management tool integrated with the product. CollabNet TeamForge offers more complexity but with more flexibility for managing and tracking projects. I think
    CollabNet TeamForge is more comprehensive than either Mercury and JIRA. They're all user friendly tools with short learning curves but CollabNet TeamForge is most efficient in my experience.
    JIRA was recently adopted for particular applications and is currently being evaluated by various technology teams.
