    IBM Rational ClearCase might be better suited for a smaller / simpler code base. Larger code bases really slow it down... but then again there are better alternatives out there for source control

    It’s the Swiss Arny knife of data and email so you can move across operating systems and platforms but it isn’t dynamic if you get a setting wrong- you need to do it over again.

    Pros
    IBM
    • Rational ClearCase is excellent for handling versioning and branching. No other tool I've used has the depth that ClearCase has when it comes to handling complex branching scenarios and identifying where certain versions of particular files are within a particular configuration.
    • Rational ClearCase handles parallel development of many dependent applications really well.
    • The use of ClearCase Views to switch between projects and configurations is extremely convenient as opposed to the local workstation model of the competitors.

    • Needs to be dynamic in set up
    • Need to be able to correct settings after set up- you need to ensure everything is correct because you cannot change it once you set it up.
    • Maybe offer AI based help?

    It’s fantastic when it works but it’s a little too rigid in wanting everything set up perfectly upfront with no wiggle room to change a setting afterwards

    If development is centrallized to one location and your company releases hundreds of customized versions of your software per year, then ClearCase is the best tool for managing the complexity of multiple versions of customized software. If your company has globally distributed development, then I'd recommend Team Foundation Server over ClearCase. If your organization uses Agile Methodologies, then I'd recommend TFS with GIT.

    I haven’t used BDR as much but its interface is pretty straightforward.
    Errors are sometimes difficult to diagnose as their help is weak in that regard. it does the job and allows multi backups and if it’s set up properly; it can be handy.
    Managing licenses is non-existent (at least I couldn’t figure out how to best manage for ISO requirements.

    Return on Investment
    IBM
    • Managed code versioning for many years.
    • Only one person can edit code at a time - slows processing down.
    • IBM is an expensive product to support.

    • ROI versus time saved in manpower is top notch
    • Sometimes divisions get sold a “bill of goods” solution that isn’t right for them but they don’t realize it until it’s been implemented and then at first opportunity they want to move to something else. SysTools Migration Tools is great for that
    • My only complaint is that the set up has to be perfect and you cannot change the settings- sometimes that’s frustrating
