Overall Satisfaction with Perforce

It's the backbone of our version control for our builds. It's used by everyone in the organization to keep current. It mskes sure everyone has the latest content and code.
  • Version control
  • Conflict mitigation
  • Proxy server access
  • Merging conflicts is sometimes difficult.
  • New users often have trouble with setup.
  • UI is sometimes vague.
  • Increased employee efficiency.
  • Faster iteration times.
  • Excellent return on investment.
I've worked with Alienbrain and I like Perforce much better with the streamlined interface. Alienbrain seems a little bloated.
It's the de facto version control software in the industry.
Small organizations may not need something this robust. An organization needs to look at how many users and the approximate number of files they will need to track.
