    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it would be my last choice for version control systems.The UI is a little confusing at times and seems a little outdated.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.

    What we really like, is the patching part, os usefulle and easy to manage. Something that we don't use, is the VM deployment from Satellite, since we have only 8 VCD licences and a 30-nodes VMWare cluster, it was pretty hard to manage on which physical node the VMs should run .

    Pros
    OpenText
    • 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.

    Cons
    OpenText
    • 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.

    It is part of our daily job, without it, we will have to manually maintain a server with repos, update the repos, it will ask us a lot of time to prepare a new set of repos, and so on. Even if it is a bit tricky to use, and for a newcomer, it needs some time, we still love to use the tool, and we keep it up to date. Curerntly using v6.19.2

    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.

    Not sure about this question, there a no other solutions that Satellites beside Foreman(free version without support) Are you talking about Red Hat in general ? If it is about RH, well, we like the support we have, all the tools available. We used to have a TAM, which as very interesting, but the new cost to have was way to high... so we deciced to let it go.

    • We have been able to automate the update process to not require after-hours monitoring.
    • Centralizing updates has greatly reduced the overall time servers are down and processing their individual updates.
    • We are able to bring our own RPM packages in and stage them in the same deployment model as official Red Hat packages.
