Pros
Flexible requirements organisation structure. I'm able to group and sub-group requirements as I see fit.
Competitive product pricing. Paying by active use instead of registered user was the winning point.
UI is straightforward and easy to use.
Cons
Access from South East Asia is rather sluggish. Could be due to server location.
Complimentary phone app to do simple tasks (e.g. create tasks, create requirements, add comments) offline would be beneficial because access to the internet can be an issue at the customer's environment.
Likelihood to Recommend
We selected SpiraPlan because the workflow allows us to start simple without adopting an entire methodology. It suits small teams and single users really well.
