Efficient Source Code Management: Several users have found that PTC Integrity is a highly effective tool for managing source code, particularly for larger teams. It enables easy identification of team members working on specific code and facilitates seamless code consolidation.

Effective Version Control: Many reviewers have praised the version control feature within PTC Integrity, which allows for easy tracing of the team responsible for bug fixes in the code even after a significant period of time has passed. Additionally, they appreciate the 4-digit versioning system they implemented to mark specific versions based on release and type of fix.

Comprehensive Change and Defect Management: Users consistently mention the value of PTC Integrity's change management and defect management tools. Its customizable workflow enables approval from multiple managers and can be tailored to meet specific team requirements. The change packages feature greatly assists in identifying which artifacts were modified for each request, whether it be a bug fix, enhancement, or user story.

Outdated Look and Feel: Some users have expressed dissatisfaction with the outdated look and feel of the tool, comparing it to an old JAVA applet view. They felt that the software needs a more modern GUI design in order to give it a premium feel.

Lack of Code Merge Feature: Several users have mentioned the absence of a code merge feature, which is essential for developers to work parallelly and merge their code. This limitation hampers teams from efficiently working on multiple issues within the same application.

Difficulties with Connectivity and Client Loading: Users have reported experiencing connectivity and client loading issues while using the software. These problems arise when trying to perform tasks such as merging, backfilling, or opening the integrity client. It has caused inconvenience for some users who had to resort to command prompt scripts to resolve corrupted files and launch the software.

There is a group of engineers that work on the interface to validation preparation and validation. They are in need of tools that connect their systems and software. They need to organize and manage their requirements, models, codes, and tests. PTC Windchill RV&S supports and allows to manage complete trackability of activities on the whole software life cycle. The software allows for improved strategy finding and optimization in end-to-end scenarios. There is room for cross-discipline collaboration. The client-server architecture is comfortable and allows for several well-introduced strategies and rigorous control. PTC advertizes PTC Windchill RV&S 12.3 as a flagship for PLM. We agree that the software package is complete for our needs and we are very satisfied with the in our company well-introduced methodologies. We are addicted to the transparency and thorough-going processes implemented. We find it guiding and prefer to follow the included best practices. The software allows us not only to organize all our validation activities it favors the control and initiation. We start better, are better in performing tasks in sole responsibility and collectively. We have comfortably adapted and customized the best practices. PTC Windchill is well accepted in the outcomes at our customers.

PTC Integrity was used by one of my client, and it is being used for past 8 yrs. PTC previously known as MKS Integrity, is used as a version control, source code management, change management and defect tracking tool. This tool is used throughout the IT Organization globally. I've been using this tool since 4-5 years, and comparing it with other tools in the market, I did initially have some problems using the functionality, but once I got used to it, I liked it a lot. The version controlling of the source code is very nicely organized, and helps in managing the code optimally. In one specific instance, we did see the tool help identifying an issue in code which was checked-in about 2 years prior. There are other features in PTC Integrity, but my main purpose was for version control of source code, and change management, used for labeling the code and promoting.

PTC Integrity is being used by the company that I am contracted to. As a systems engineer I help users globally to become proficient with the tool, as well has how to correctly use the tool in a systems environment capacity. Meaning we use the tool to develop requirements for the product and then verify and validate the requirements/product. It has taken the ISD (Integrated Systems Development) team two years but the software has now been adopted by the company globally. The problems that PTC Integrity helps address is the one of having project teams scattered all over the world working on the same project. PTC Integrity helps these groups to communicate and work together better and more efficiently.

With 20 different teams of 8 developers each working on different paced projects with one single code base, our company decided MKS Integrity would be a great solution to purchase. MKS Integrity was chosen after reviewing products by IBM, Atlassian and a few other open source products. The great thing about MKS Integrity is that it is more of a toolbox of components rather than a tool. You can take components and make them work exactly the way you want your solution to work. For example, we started off by using this strictly for an SVN replacement. We only needed a couple of projects with many sandboxes. Then we used the toolkit to migrate away from another project management tool and track all change requests through customized screens in MKS. The change requests had strict workflows, allowing better management and control over changes. Then the company designed a QA process and issue tracking within MKS. Then came the help desk software replacement with further build out of Integrity. Over time, we replaced almost all of the one off applications/solutions used by Dev, QA, HelpDesk, Business Development & Project Management into one single solution MKS.

Integrity is being used by specific groups within our organization. Primarily it is used by analysts for requirements tracking and by QA for testing. It addresses the need to have complete organization and documentation as required by the FDA, for certain groups.

MKS Integrity is used by one of our retail clients to store the deliverables and the ETL Codes. It is used throughout all the departments by all the teams like development, QA, UAT, Production. The biggest problem it addresses is it stores all the deliverables(whether it is document, model or Code) at a single location and assures the same codes are being deployed across the environments.

PTC (MKS) Integrity is used as our Configuration/Change Management tool by our program. The problems it is addressing are: having data in one location for access by all team members; helping in the management of workflow processes involving change processes, construction, logistics, software version tracking, document version tracking.

We use it to support our software development process. It is used in software development department. We keep records of all activities, task, code outputs, code review, requirements and documents. Most of the time we do not use it directly since we have a custom internally developed tool that automates a lot of actions.
