Jama
What do you like best about the product?
The Jama tool is good because these is a direct correlation between product requirements and test plans or test cases. this way it can be determined what requirements have test cases associated with them and which requirements do not.
What do you dislike about the product?
If you have requirements, test plans, or test cases existing in other tools or mechanisms, uploading from other source not always work well. Sometimes there appears to be a dependency on the type of words (like a heading) but sometimes that is not the case.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
software testing
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Jama is a good tool to use in order to correlate product requirements to test plans and test cases.
If you have already these existing in other tools or mechanisms, uploading these into Jama is not always straightforward.

Jama Review
What do you like best about the product?
Jama is a real wonderful tool to track addition of new features to a software and to enhance existing capabilities. I personally consider a lot of value for this tool in the project management cycle due to the abilities and permissions it can provide. I like the read-only feature of the tool since the specs can be written by one team and the implementing team can just read and access it without changing it.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only dislike I have is the lack of integration support with most of the common agile products. This is a pretty big deal considering the fact that a company can use different tools from different companies to take care of its agile software development process.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The main business problem solved through Jama is that I can collect customer data and turn it into a feature for a future release of my software.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I do believe that Jama is a pretty good product to use for agile software development
Great tool
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to configure and fast to use. It has a lot of different options that fit any needs. Everything that may be needed in a project already in Jama. Test management is mostly used and everyone provided great feedback of a tool. Easy to create test cases
What do you dislike about the product?
Not a big amount of reporters. It would be good to have more types of reports.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Test management and requirements tool
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just try and you will like it
Jama Product Review
What do you like best about the product?
Exchange, links between items and great review tool.
The Jira integration is also a big advantage in our organization, to track advance of the user stories of the project.
The tools is also very useful to allow us to enter user requirements (even if a better import tool will be great) and to follow, though the links include in Jama, all the tasks needed to be done to fitful this requirement.
The "build your own" report from the different available links are also a way to have different views (customer, developer, specialist, etc.).
And I really like the review, as simple as possible, even if "rights" on user story "blind" some information to people who haven't enough permission (some document linked can't be seen through the review).

What do you dislike about the product?
Global ID not well manage (moving from a project to an other), as we are working on a product built by projects. So, when we move "user story" from project to the "product" (in fact, an other project), the Global ID is changing, and all links are lost.
The product management must be improved, to be able to "pick up" easily from one project (our product) each function that are useful for a dedicated project, with only "links", and not copy/paste which change this Global ID.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Have one tool to describe the function of the solution, and share, with review, to many people around the world.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Good collaborative tool, with excellent review process.
Integration with Jira is also great.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Gathering all basic info about project in one place. Ability to work within Jama (not only reports creation and reading of requirements)
Powerful, but not easy to use
What do you like best about the product?
Customized export templates for Microsoft Office
What do you dislike about the product?
Reviewing, searching, linking to documents
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Use of Jama as requirements and test case management system
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Too expensive and not easy to use
Jama was a good tool where we managed our requirements and test cases
What do you like best about the product?
I liked that we could relate everything across the SDLC, even connecting to our JIRA system for our development process.
What do you dislike about the product?
Licensing costs became prohibitive to full expansion
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Desired a requirements management tool where we could provide tractability across the SDLC and share with external clients and have a feedback loop that was efficient
We Track Requirements With It
What do you like best about the product?
It does a good job of letting us track requirements while we develop software.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be difficult to track lots of small project simultaneously.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're using it to track requirements for our customers while we build good software for them.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's worth giving a try.
Exceptional traceability; brilliant information sharing
What do you like best about the product?
When your team adopts JAMA, the entire process of generating, reviewing and verifying against specifications becomes engaging and rewarding.
JAMA enables conversations and reviews to occur within the context of the specifications themselves which allows anyone the capability to come up to speed on the history and justification of a specification quickly.
The traceability model in JAMA is exceptionally powerful, providing detailed impact analyses with minimal effort. As a systems architect, the value this creates is phenomenal.

What do you dislike about the product?
JAMA, like all tools, is only as good as your use of it. Our team has struggled in the past and it was only through dedicated effort that we have been able to realise the benefits of JAMA.
The training material for JAMA, as well as their pre- and post-sales support are fantastic but the "check it out and tinker" experience (as most software engineers prefer) is not so great. JAMA suffers a little from the "blank slate" problem whereby a new, empty project can be a daunting prospect.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've specifically used JAMA to provide a traceability model from customer requirements, through use cases and system-level requirements down to indivudal subsystem and software unit acceptance criteria. From these specifications, Test Cases were derived and their statuses captured within JAMA.
The benefits, once we embraced the power of JAMA, were immense - being able to track the impact of changes through the entire system, including already executed tests, was phenomenal. This information allowed us to be proactive and lean, armed with the confidence that we were spending our time and money on the right things.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
You should spend the time and money to understand the benefits of changing your workflow to integrate the use of JAMA as well as customizing JAMA to suit your needs.
