Creates a living document adaptable for specific industry needs

Pros

"Polarion ALM delivers both document views and table views simultaneously and organizes configurations according to norms and standards."

A tool that offers a reasonable amount of scalability and integration capabilities along with good technical support

Though needing an improvement in reporting and time for extraction of the data, its integration capabilities are good

Pros

"Scalability is good...The integration is quite good. "

Cons

"The weak point of Polarion ALM software is about reporting and time for extraction of the data...The quality of reporting needs to improve."

Has good browser experience and traceability features

Pros

"The tool's most valuable feature is its browser experience. I rate its traceability feature a ten out of ten. From the initial stage to the release, you can manage everything through a single point. "

Cons

"Integration requires a lot of effort. You typically need to work with an implementation partner to get it done. Most connectors available for Polarion ALM are paid. Unlike other vendors offering several standard connectors for free, integrating third-party software with Polarion ALM involves discussing and coordinating with the third-party software providers, which requires effort.

Cons

It helps us capture and validate our customer requirements

Pros

"Polarion ALM helps us better structure our customer requirements, and we can also validate the specs of our products against those. If anything changes on our side, we see the impact, and we can see the effect If a customer changes requirements. "

Cons

"We use PTC Windchill, and Polarion ALM doesn't have native integration, so we had to purchase the connector to integrate it with Polarion ALM. We still haven't implemented it. "
