IBM Rational DOORS Review
DOORS is our tool of choice on large programs with a large number of requirements to manage at various levels of integration.
- Parent to child requirement traceability
- Auto tracking of all changes made to an object
- Ability to create a toolkit to generate documents straight from DOORS
- Linking between DOORS modules using DXL
- Not web based
- Better interface with other tools
- Ability to track requirements approval and sell off
- Easy tracking of requirements
- Common to multiple programs
- Home grown toolkit available
- Ability to generate document straight from DOORS is a big plus.
- Ability to track all changes is a big plus when doing multiple iterations or updates to requirements.
- Need wider use of DOORS by all stakeholders.
DOORS is the legacy and leading tool for requirements management. It is widely used by the Aerospace industry.

Powerful but Clunky
We use DOORS as a requirements repository for the product and software. We use it to track, edit, and trace requirements coverage. It's used all across the business group I'm a part of amongst many roles. It is robust and large enough for all of our products both current and legacy.
- Stores requirements
- Compatible with HP ALM
- Filters well and is customizable
- Terrible UI and not intuitive
- Too slow to connect to, launch and run
- Scripts to use the features are way too complicated to write and maintain.
- Wastes time to get access, connect.
- Many other tools are faster and easier to use.
- Quality Center (formerly HP Quality Center), Tricentis qTest (formerly QASymphony), Jira Software and Rally Software (formerly CA Agile Central)
DOORS is not a suite nor an integrated tool like HP ALM or Rally. It only does one thing and cannot hold defects or accommodate sprint planning. It is older, takes longer to connect and load, and has an inconvenient timeout. It does do a basic job and can be customized to show a clear picture of requirements coverage but it takes some training to use.

IBM Rational Team Concert Review
The whole team uses IBM Rational Team Concert. The main focus is to write change requests which includes implementation work tickets, reviews etc.
- Dead Lines are clearly assigned through change requests
- Tracking the assignments (Implementation Work Tickets)
- Process
- GUI can be implemented much more efficiently with clarity. I personally feel the current IBM Rational Team Concert is little clumsy.
- Increased employee efficiency is definitely a point to be considered when all the employees are resolving the change requests in a timely manner.
It is easy for the organization to identify what kind of problems there are in the project and how many change requests have been resolved and how many are pending. Thereby the employer can pro-actively arrange the meetings and address the issues to the team members.

The tool was not showing the required tabs. There was an issue and was fixed by my supporting team
As said earlier, I was unable to view my project and all the required tabs in the tool. I struggled a lot to fix the issue. Finally it was resolved by the support team by correcting the code.
- Ballets, CRs
- Traceability
