SpiraTeam Reviews

All the functionality needed for our Software Quality Testing goals at a great price.

Reporting could be easier to manage and sorting columns by "not" would be valuable - ex. Status = "not" Accepted for Requirements.

Nice features,integration with most of the automation tools,ease of navigation,easy to understand UI,tracking of tasks,version control,access as per roles,easy tracking of all artifacts and easy to understand the mappings with them.

Reporting can be much better.Sometimes some formats throw error while reporting,mostly detailed incident reports fail while attaching images other than jpeg formats.

Integration with bug tracking and testing.

It was slow. Clunky interface. You seriously need to consult an agile expert, and implement better project management capability. Need person based detail, assign two engineers to one task, dashboard where you can choose multiple reports for multiple projects display, group tasks under user story/spec--heirarchy, input hours worked per day (auto accumulation instead of manual), and hours left to do estimate, needs better reporting for project managers, drag and drop tasks to iterations, drag and drop work order (your priority field is REALLY criticality---priority is work order. Progress bar should update automatically with hours worked over hours estimated.

We are aware of some of the additional features such as time tracking and enhanced personnel resource tracking that are already planned for future versions. The ability to drag and drop tasks to iterations does exist (we worked with Christine to show her that feature) and the % complete is deliberately not associated to # hours expended as that is a misleading metric if a task was under-estimated to begin with.

Great variety of plugins

Limitations for some integrations, Jenkins will be a good example for that.

Thanks Boris, we have the page rendering speed, firmly in our sights for the next version.

I have been using this product for almost 10years for my quality team. I really like the product; it is very easy to use, very easy to track team's performance , easy to do requirement traceability ,easy to assign tasks for the team. Overall a great product.

I am satisfied with the features I am using.

Functionality, Price and Support. What more do you need in a Test Management Tool? And it has integration with other tools and test automation. SpiraTeam was trialled over three major projects and was enthusiastically accepted by both the IT group and the Business Areas doing UAT with absolutely minimal training. SpiraTeam provides a high level of functionality at an extremely affordable price point....

Oracle support (but it is on the way). Greater email support ( such as broadcast notification to all SpiraTeam users)- but that is on the way too.

Easy and Quick Implementation Ease of use througout Pricing Good overall functionality across the board for all SDLC Artifacts, not just Defect Tracking Integration to third party software Great Customer Support Importing of artifacts is easy

Limited flexibility of controlling location of the fields on each screen Reports are a bit cumbersome Making Global Changes that would impact multiple projects in progress Linking Artifacts across projects for cross functionality

1) great value for the money 2) flexibility 3) can help track all aspects of a project

I am still on version 4, so it may be that some of these are handled by v5 1) not tied in well enough with build systems 2) no test scheduling support supplied for linux systems 3) no simple way to tell which automated hosts are currently being used for automated testing. Should be some GUI screen that provides a single look at whats being scheduled and to what host.

Feature set for the price compared to competing products. Flexible licensing. Very good support from the company.

Very occasionally can be slow, for no apparent reason. Validation against AD can be difficult to setup.

SpiraTeam is clear and intuitive to use. The cockpits are a good starting point for daily work.

The structure of the requirements is not transferred from DevOps and after grouping the original types are lost.

We are looking to add a way to keep the requirement types from ADO once the requirements are nested and grouped in the SpiraTeam hierarchy.

solution complexity is good for managers and overview, graphs is good and transparent to users, notification is understandable

not so much user friendly mainly for simple users, navigation is not simple, default dashboard is complicated and too much data contains

Thanks for the feedback, SpiraTeam is designed to be a comprehensive solution. We have been simplifying the navigation and layout in the last couple of releases for end users (vs. managers).

Incident tracker flexibility is phenomenal.

Inability to search the contents of uploaded documents that contain text from the search bar to get back to your artifacts.

Able to use test spreadsheet to write test cases and it is very simple to import into product. Test case execution is user friendly. Discrepancies can be tied to the test case. Discrepancies can be distributed amongst team members with ease for development and re-testing.

Large quantity of test cases in the import spreadsheet can cause it to lock up.

The product does an outstanding job on collecting the information needed to manage projects both large and small. The application has a good road map for future enhancements and helps me manage my projects without the normal amount of effort.

The screens could use some user inferface enhancements to make it easier to navigate. The filters, although useful, can confuse you as to what you are seeing. Many time I think I'm missing data to only find that the system ha me in a filter.

Total value for money, a customer service second to none, this is a vendor with the customer in focus. The application is very intuitive and meets all our current needs with plenty of room for growing.

None so far

We have used this tool for organisation of 50 users and it has worked perfectly. It has got all the features which a Test and Defect management tools should have.

Its not very stable on new IE 8. Need to have some more basic feature to improve usability and speed of writing, designing Test Scripts.

The mentioned issue with IE8 was addressed many versions ago (v2.2+).

You're customer service is wonderful. Everytime I have presented a question I receive a very quick email back from Adam. Other than our own customer service I have never received such good service from a software vendor.

With the new 2.2 upgrade I have lost the ability to tab when creating a new test script. This is causing me to take twice as long to enter my steps.

Today was the first time we had a overview of the tool. Based on the initial meeting, it seems to be a tool that covers most of our requirements and seems fairly easy to use.

Need to know more about the integration with Microsoft Project Server and the upcoming release on requirements and test in March of 2012.

The thing we like most about SpiraTeam is its flexibility. We are able to configure it to our processes and integrate it with MS TFS. The customer support is outstanding.

There are a few things we wish it had, but they are very open to enhancement suggestions and most of the things we suggest are already planned for an upcoming release.

Support for the product has been fantastic! Whe have gone thu 2 upgrades and had questions. The support personnel ( Adam ) was extremely helpful and we were able to complete the upgrades.

None at present.

The TFS 2012 data-sync that includes the requirements data synchronization is under development right now. Should be released in mid-August.

Project Requirements management works okay

The Planning board is not efficient in terms of task management
