Overall Satisfaction with Jama Connect

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Purely for design control development of medical devices. Requirements management, safety risk management, traceability, architecture definition, and verification.

Pros and Cons

Pros

traceability
requirements management
customization of projects

Cons

safety risk management -> make it more automated in terms of filling of metrics.
More integrations to agile tools beyond JIRA.

Return on Investment

Before Jama, we were doing things on paper so this has greatly increased speed.
Reduced complexity by having all design control elements in a single place.

Jama Connect Outcomes

A successful FDA clearance of our device. No findings in subsequent audits related to our design control practices. Sufficient reuse of elements in future product variants.

Jama Connect Effectiveness

I used PTC Integrity and Jama is far superior in terms of ease of onboarding new users, ease of customizations, and simple usability.

Alternatives Considered

PTC Integrity. Greenlight Guru.

Products Replaced

Other Software Used

Box, DocuSign, GitLab

Likelihood to Recommend

Design control development of medical devices, especially for startup companies that can't invest the time and resources to make a fully custom solution. Jama works well "out of the box".
