What differentiates OpenText Software Delivery Management from other similar products?

The company uses ALM Octane for product planning, tracking, and support. Analysis and reporting are also done using it. Providing high-quality services throughout an application's life cycle is supported and encouraged. This program supports the user from product deployment through the point of problem resolution.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

I appreciate the program's point of view on the Quality and Pipeline module. Thanks to it, we can keep track of our automation requirements, look back on earlier runs and problems that were fixed, and forecast future events. - Easy to use and friendly to the user. It aids customers in switching from waterfall to agile methodologies. Throughout an application's life cycle, suppliers give visibility and support.

What do you dislike most about this product?

It doesn't seem that the same choices are available to track status on the narrative user level as on the feature level. Therefore, monitoring progress on the iteration level would call for a minor adjustment. After the sprints, we need to be able to follow the status of the user stories. Hence we need the appropriate tools.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Encourage the administration of tests and thorough software development. Analyzing the requirements, test cases, and tractability matrix was beneficial. MicroFocus has given ALM Octane a lot of help in terms of adoption. When necessary, we have scheduled support meetings with SMEs from MicroFocus and received assistance from R&D.
