Jama Connect

Jama Connect Review

Comments: Overall experience using Jama Connect has been really good. I would definitely recommend it to my colleagues.

Pros:

Jama provides a very user-friendly interface with a lot of intuitive functionality. Provides requirement traceability and also versioning. The functionality to apply filters has been implemented better than most of its competitors in the market.

Cons:

The text editor can be a little difficult for a first time user and can be made more intuitive. Filtering can be made more convenient to use.

Good choice for requirement management

Comments: Good product but loading and navigation issues

Pros:

1. I have been using Jama for over one and half years. The good thing about JAMA is all the requirements are systematically placed in JAMA. Its search option is good. By typing any keyword, all the related requirements get listed below. 2. I liked the requirement review facility in Jama. All the comments are well preserved. By going through them, I can ensure whether any comments are still open. It helps in tracking the closure of all questions/comments raised during requirement review. 3. Notification service of JAMA is quite good

Cons:

1. I felt that loading and navigation of Jama needs to be improved. Sometimes the delay is quite noticeable. 2. Though the homepage contains all important information, little improvement in look and feel of GUI can make it more attractive. 3. There should be auto login in Jama using windows login password like other software I use. Every time I have to manually give windows login/password to enter Jama

A scalable multi-staged product

Comments: Good experience if supported by the company.

Pros:

Requirements and change management with up and down stream relationships with requirements, use cases, design, tests

Cons:

Very expensive for organization to continue. Document export required lot of adjustments to be presentable.

Jama Review from a True User

Pros:

Web-based and much cheaper option than DOORS. Learning curve is really flat. No need for professional IT engineers to maintain the system

Cons:

Data export an import extremely not convenient. Now only support export to excel. After excel export, the sheet is not the same format as seen in Jama and it takes me long time to reformat the sheet in excel. 3rd party tools integration is not ideal, like the support to EA, Github,...

I use Jama daility and love it

Comments: I am an admin and active user and I love this product! I cant do my job without it!

Pros:

Tracks my requirements, helps collaborate with other engineers on requirements, the Jama Reviews and change process is easy to implement and use. They also added e-signatures for approvers which has been key in baselining requirements.

Cons:

Its hard to separate admin access from create access, though recently Jama implemented changes to admin usage and its helped. The baselining feature is not strong either, rather, items are baselined per review regardless of approvals and rejections.
