Helps with code review, test case generation, and chat features

In a few cases, the results aren't correct, so that needs improvement. Also, it would be great if the results could be presented in different formats, not just text. As engineers, it takes time to read through text-based results. If they could provide diagrams or basic design architectures, it would be easier to understand and take less time to review. So, as of now, image functionality is not provided by GitHub Copilot, and it would be great if they could add that. So, I would like to see improvements in the result generation, more results, different result formats, and image functionality.

Offers good security, everything between the client and server is encrypted and immensely scalable

There are small areas of improvement. HCL has taken over from IBM, and is making rapid improvements. IBM sat on it for almost 20 years and did nothing, whereas HCL is making a big effort, and we are impressed. The Notes / Domino suite includes several client applications: Notes client, iNotes, HCL Verse and now HCL Nomad. With Nomad applications designed for a Windows or Mac desktop will run with only minor modifications on Android or iOS devices. Nomad Web runs in a browser. Some things still don't work 100 percent on Nomad, but HCL maintains an ideas portal and new requests are reviewed and incorporated regularly. On thing we would like is that some views should be visible to a particular user on Windows/Mac but not in the Nomad app. It's currently possible to restrict the view, but it's by user, not by user combined with device. One major failing: We wish it had a reporting engine, which it doesn't.

More GitHub CoPilot cons

"An area for improvement in HCL Domino is security. New enhancements in the IT industry mean that security should be improved. The HCL Domino GUI also needs improvement."
