This was the first Test Management tool i have used when it was called Quality Centre-Mercury owned, then owned by HP and now MicroFocus. Like the name suggests it is the complete 'Application Life Cyle Management tool' right from release management to bug tracking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about OpenText Application Quality Management? 1) ALM hangs when we export more test cases to excel and it is slow.

Customization's within ALM is very handy and useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
