OpenText AccuRev vs. Quali CloudShell

Very slow and not intuitive; it would be my last choice for version control systems.The UI is a little confusing at times and seems a little outdated. It needs a lot of improvement. It is suited for small projects and fewer number of projects. But if there are huge projects and many projects to be maintained in a portfolio, its a little hard to manage.

• LaaS
• IaaS
• PaaS
• CRaaS
• Training
• DevOps
• DevSecOps
• Demo Portals
• TaaS

Almost any workflow and any infrastructure are supported.

• One place for most recent code with history, avoid any conflict/confusion among other team/members.
• Stream/Workflow approach to control approval process betwen all the teams, which I couldn't find in other version control tools I worked.
• Bundle our code in a small group (called, Issues in Accurev) to differentiate between different projects.

Incentivized

• Self service single pane of glass for any workflow and infrastructure
• Complete lifecycle management of your workflow and infrastructure
• Vendor agnostic cloud, service, application, appliance support

• Ability to zoom in/out for stream-view. We currently have many streams/substreams and unable to view the entire workflow. Zooming in/out would benefit.
• Being a designer, I use Adobe Flash and SWF files. When updating the SWF files, Accurev does not see these files as being changed and you will be unable to promote. In order to push changes, you must totally rename the SWF file.

Incentivized

• Requires SME to get the full ROI first year
• Requires a culture change for Agile Automation
• Price could be less (not cheap)

We will renew because it is part of our build process.

The tool can automate almost any workflow and infrastructure consumption. It has state of the art develop and support with great online training, online full manual set, and a comprehensive support team and network of SIs/VARS that are very qualified.

In my view, accurev ranks very low compared to other tools I have used. Microsoft TFS is the best in the industry as of today as it's a complete ALM solution. It does code version, bug tracking, user story documentation, and has easy integration with other external tools supporting many languages. So I would definitely recommend TFS to anyone.

VMware is too hard to use, too expensive to support, and not a full lifecycle tool for workflows and Infrastructure (no support of physical either). AWS or Azure or Google solutions are good if you are only in the cloud and only using their tools. Not good if you have on-prem or non-Cloud based tools/infrastructure. Build it yourself automation frameworks can be good for people with unlimited funds, but they are not the best way to go and missing many capabilities typically.

• Better team coordination.
• Avoid confusion by having one place for all documentation and code.
• Better project management by having different work streams.

Incentivized

• Our customers have an average ROI of less than 6 months.
• Our customers renew their maintenance almost 100% of the time.
• It has allowed us to build specific solutions across many use cases enabling us to profit.
