Polarion Pluses and Minuses
- Ability to see and act upon risk components related to requirements to test tracing that would have been missed or overlooked especially during regulatory submission.
- Always ready reporting for executive management based on trending of product releases before they hit the market.
- One negative is the resources required to maintain the tool which for most non large organizations would be a huge overhead.
