Overall Satisfaction with Jama Connect

We use Jama to manage our system architecture. This includes all levels of requirements and those trace down to our testing protocols. Jama helps document and track our versions and changes. It also is our main tool for documentation and execution of the V&V process. In the next two quarters, we are also aiming to integrate our FMEAs into Jama Connect as well.

Pros

  • Version control
  • Traceability
  • Managing test protocols
  • Test run execution

Cons

  • Redlining feature
  • Trace matrix generation
  • Managing versions of a project

Do you think Jama Connect delivers good value for the price?

Not sure

Are you happy with Jama Connect's feature set?

Yes

Did Jama Connect live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Jama Connect go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Jama Connect again?

Yes

  • Frustration from users on it's inability to be customizable - item views and templates
  • Features are sometimes hard to figure out and not intuitive without guidance from the company
We look to have a program to manage our requirements and risk documentation. Jama is a great place to create and review these items, however it would be nice if there was a document management feature as well. If we were able to generate and track requirements documents within the program itself, similar to how items are displayed in a review.
N/A - have not used other technologies/ approaches for managing requirements
Jama is well suited for managing and documenting requirements. The traceability feature to link items to one another upstream and downstream is helpful in seeing how everything fits together. Being able to write test cases and link those to the requirements is helpful as well. It seems to be trickier to produce a neat and easily understandable trace matrix from the links. Redlining and showing different versions to reviewers could also be improved.
