What differentiates OpenText Software Delivery Management from other similar products?

For product planning, tracking, and support, my company uses ALM Octane. Analyses and reporting are also done using it. Through the whole life cycle of an application, it aids and promotes good quality delivery. From the moment sold solutions are deployed till the point of problem addressing, this software offers the user help.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

I appreciate the perspective the application provides on the Quality and Pipeline module. It makes it simple for us to keep track of our automation requirements, look back on previous runs and problems fixed, and provide a prediction for how things will proceed. - Easy to use and friendly to users. Facilitates users' transition from waterfall to agile methodologies. Throughout an application's life cycle, providers provide support and visibility.

What do you dislike most about this product?

As there don't seem to be the same features accessible to track status on the user narrative level as on the feature level, monitoring progress on the iteration level would need a minor adjustment. After the sprints, we must have functions that allow us to follow the status of the user stories.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Recommend managing tests and large-scale software development. Analyzing the requirements, test cases, and tractability matrix was beneficial. MicroFocus has provided us with excellent help regarding the adoption of ALM Octane. When necessary, we have scheduled support meetings with MicroFocus SMEs and received assistance from MicroFocus R&D.

What differentiates OpenText Software Delivery Management from other similar products?

Used to track all development activities related to application development. Creation of requirements, test cases, test suites, and associated bugs are reported and tracked by business units. The 2-in-1 tool feature can help you save a lot of time and money, log errors, and create stories.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Best UI. Easy access to errors and requirements. Elastic search option to easily find data. The Agile methodologies added there solve the purpose of JIRA and HL APM. I think it's a 2-in-1 tool that can save you a lot of money.

There are quite a few tutorials for new installations and configurations. Improve reporting and test execution history.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

A REST API is provided by ALM Octane that you can use to integrate automation tools and upload test results. Its ease of use is the main reason we love this tool, and everything is well organized, making it easy to collaborate with your team and helping you achieve on-time product delivery. Others are the most popular test management tools. Always on the market.
