codebeamer Reviews & Product Details

I introduced and used codeBeamer already in the second automotive startup company. codeBeamer provides a full ASPICE process capability out of the box. It supports the dynamic growth of your team while keeping you able to fulfill the automotive process requirements without too many manual tasks. It also saves you from the hassles that bigger, and older companies have with their complex mix of self-developed and commercial toolboxes to resemble a comparable ALM solution. And if there is a need for integration with external tools (e.g. customer ticket systems, CI/CD, SWQ tools) the REST API makes it easy to do.

An aspect often overlooked is the integration of SW code repositories. So full traceability from requirements, tasks, user stories to source code lines is there from the start without manual work and external scripting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

A first-time user is easily overwhelmed by the number of features included in codeBeamer. While I have no idea how to solve that, maybe a beginner/expert view mode would help in the onboarding process of new users by hiding the complex functions at first. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Great Project Management and Requirements Management system in a very responsive user interface. Its open architecture provides 3rd party integration to Software Configuration Management systems, to other Requirements Management systems, to Test Automation (Jenkins) and Management systems. Simple Microsoft Excel roundtrip (import/export), super helpful in discussions with local teams and small customer/supplier collaboration. Fulfills ASPICE, provides out-of-the-box templates (e.g., Automotive, Functional Safety), and most of the features are customizable! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Filters and initial setup could feel overwhelming - luckily, the templates, help, and support make it easier. It could be perceived as an overkill, from the perspective of a small team or a department just introduced to Application Lifecycle Management. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

A MS Project feature needs to be added to codeBeamer. JIRA has a BigPicture plugin that could be copied for codeBeamer. The MS Project export feature has some issues and could be fixed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

traceability from initial requirements to test cases, branching (working sets), Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

the fact that you need to pay for everything, we want to use a support portal in cB, other tools are offering free licenses for customers and only agents need to pay for using the portal. This would be then a proper ALM tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
