OpenText ALM - The Quality Czar!

Likeliness to Recommend

9 /10

What differentiates OpenText ALM Octane from other similar products?

There are a few ALM tools out there, but OpenText ALM excels in its ability to handle a mix of manual and automated testing. This is crucial for us in Dubai retail, where we deal with both cutting-edge mobile apps and legacy systems.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

OpenText ALM's reporting features are phenomenal. I can generate detailed reports on test execution, defect tracking, and overall project progress. This allows me to keep stakeholders informed and make data-driven decisions about product releases

What do you dislike most about this product?

Let's be honest, OpenText ALM's interface isn't the most intuitive. It can be a bit clunky to navigate at times, especially for new users. I sometimes find myself spending extra time just figuring out where to find specific functionalities

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

If you're a QA lead or manager in retail, and rigorous quality control is paramount, then OpenText ALM is definitely a strong contender. However, be mindful of your team's technical expertise. The learning curve for the interface can be a bit steep

Pros

  • Enables Productivity
  • Efficient Service
  • Respectful
  • Fair

What differentiates OpenText ALM Octane from other similar products?

What makes OpenText ALM stand out is its focus on the entire application lifecycle, from requirements all the way through to deployment.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

OpenText ALM integrates seamlessly with a bunch of other tools we use, like Jira for task management. This is a lifesaver – no more data silos or information black holes

What do you dislike most about this product?

Sure, OpenText ALM is a powerful tool, but one thing I'd love to see improved is the reporting functionality. Right now, it feels a bit clunky and not as user-friendly as it could be.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

If your organization is looking for a robust ALM platform to streamline your software development lifecycle, OpenText ALM is definitely worth considering. Just be prepared to invest some time in learning the ins and outs of the reporting features

Pros

  • Continually Improving Product
  • Reliable
  • Efficient Service
  • Client Friendly Policies
