Software Configuration Management Tools

I am a consultant to the T-Mobile organization from Capgemini. Accurev is being used as version control tool for our source code. It is being used across the whole organization. It provides us one place for most current version of our code if the same code is being worked by multiple people in the same team. It also has multiple streams to control approval process between all groups.

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.

The tool allows duplicate file name, if both are present in different directories. This creates confusion if multiple people are working on the same file. It should at least produce a warning.

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

AccuRev has a unique way of showing different branches of code. I like the way code can be promoted with a drag and drop. It is great for projects with many developers were code merges can't be avoided.

Visual code stream view.
Eclipse plugin.
Integrated merge tool.

Free online training.
Check for new versions and auto update.

Quick merging.
Easy to roll back changes.
Good tree view.

It is used for version control across several projects in my organization.

Creation of streams & workspaces are easy.
Easy integration with other bug tracking or tasking tools like JIRA.
File comparison and history is possible.
Project creation and setup is easy.

Very hard or confusing process when compared to other version control tools like TFS /GIT etc.
More features would be definitely helpful. The UI seems a little outdated when compared to many modern tools
Very slow tool.

We will be moving away from Accurev as it's not meeting our needs.
We have been using it for many years and it has supported our needs well for these years . But since our org is growing and the projects getting more complex and team size is increasing, this tool is not working out for us.
It's a little simpler to understand than GIT but still the slowness of the tool overall is an issue.

AccuRev's main purpose in our organization is for version control. It is being used by the whole department (30 people). The business problems it addresses is basically being able to make changes to files everyone has access to and make sure there are no overlaps in changes.

Overall strong user interface.
Overall layout and icons seem easy to follow and pickup
Merging interface - Easy to follow

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.

Stable and safe promotions which leads to increased employee efficiency
