Helix ALM is very well suited for maintaining traceability between user needs, requirements and tests for medical device design controls. It allows users to customize the reports to create a traceability matrix or any other reports that are needed. It is also a good program for tracking issues and bugs and for storing/linking verification and validation test protocols and reports.Incentivized
Visual Studio Test Professional is best for .NET and C# based development, which is what 90% of our developers and projects do. It is an integral part of the CI/CD pipeline for our custom made Enterprise resource planning tool. It also works very well with Azure providing seamless integration to way more functionality.Incentivized

Visual Studio Test Professional when paired with Azure DevOps is the best solution for Test Case Management when compared to other Testing tools we've used in the past.Test Results and Artifacts are always available with full traceablility for audits.Testing and Release Management are tied together as one continuous pipeline.Incentivized
Better integration with electronic document control systems like Arena PLM.Easier setup in the back end (customization is available but the interface is not intuitive).Incentivized
The user community of the Visual Studio Test product is weak. For instant problems with this product, it is necessary to quickly reach the source of the error.Licence fees need to be more reasonable. License prices need to be reduced so that they can easily compete with free testing tools.Incentivized
Visual Studio Test Professional's overall usability is extremely high quality. It is extremely functional and like all Microsoft products has a user interface that is well designed and is extremely user friendly. Any functionality which I looked for, I was able to either understand immediately or find a user guide online.Incentivized
The support from Perforce has been extensive and allowed us to customize the setup of Helix ALM specific to our needs. They also hosted training sessions for our users and administrators and provided us with troubleshooting help during initial setup.Incentivized
My team has always been able to troubleshoot with the help of customer support (and even schedule a virtual meeting!) in a timely manner. The support is provided immediately and with the necessary knowledge to answer/solve any questions/problems I or my team experience.Incentivized
The other tools that we evaluated did not have all of the capabilities and customization that Helix ALM had to offer and therefore we decided to select Helix ALM.Incentivized
The visual Studio Test tool is faster than other tools. Since the development and testing processes are in one tool, it is more profitable in terms of cost. It is more inconvenient to write a test case in DevOps.
Improved management of requirements, risks and bugs to make sure they don't get lost in emails or long documents.Incentivized
One of the positive ROIs of Visual Studios is the fact that it makes producing our work at a quick rate, things like Intellisense make our work get produced at a much higher rate which is good for our return of investment.Testing by the developers has increased by 23%, we now take the time to actually test our product before we send it to our QA people.I am not aware of any negative ROI aspects to our company that have been found.Incentivized
