reqSuite® rm Reviews & Product Details

We tested some other RM-tools and ReqSuite was really outstanding:

ReqSuite is easy to learn by the user. After only one hour (if it all) of teaching the UI of the software and another hour or two of teaching our customized configuration the users were able to start using the tool. After a few ours of learning by doing ReqSuite faded into the background and the users could concentrate on the content. Feedback of all our users was that then ReqSuite brings effiency and transparency into requirements management.

The initial setup of the configuration was done by the very supportive team of OSSENO after a number of workshops. For us administrators it was then easy to adapt the configuration. If we faced any problems we got immedialtely help from OSSENO. Specially for best practises their experience in systems engineering and requirements management from their past jobs was priceless.

Very helpful to get started was that Reqsuite can be SAAS or installed on premise and that it comes with a JIRA-interface. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not really much, because all is straight forward and nothing critical is missing. Only the visual representation of the traces could be improved, but even this is not really worth complaining. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We have been using ReqSuite® RM daily for over three years across multiple development projects, including software, mechanical, and electronic engineering. From the very beginning, the onboarding phase proved invaluable, helping us understand the tool’s capabilities and its highly flexible configuration options.

ReqSuite® RM has become a trusted and user-friendly requirements management solution for our internal stakeholders. Its intuitive interface and ease of use have significantly contributed to user acceptance across various departments.

As administrators, we particularly appreciate the flexibility to tailor project layouts and customize the graphical user interface to meet specific project needs. During the initial implementation phase, OSSENO provided excellent support for installing ReqSuite on our own server and configuring templates to match our internal processes. Their update support continues to be outstanding, enabling us to manage updates independently with confidence.

Each new release brings valuable enhancements. The recent introduction of AI-based features and rule automation has further simplified our workflows and improved collaboration with users through intelligent assistance.

One of ReqSuite’s major advantages is its browser-based interface, which eliminates deployment hurdles and ensures seamless access across platforms. Integration with other tools is another strong point—we successfully use ReqSuite in conjunction with TestRail, Jira, Enterprise Architect, an OpenLDAP server, and even a second ReqSuite instance.

Technical issues are rare, but when they do occur, OSSENO’s customer support is consistently responsive and helpful. Additionally, the Osseno Learning Suite has been instrumental in helping our teams explore and master the tool’s extensive functionality.

Export capabilities are another highlight, allowing us to generate traceability matrices and customized Word and Excel templates to meet documentation requirements.

For internal training purposes, we’ve also benefited from complimentary access to the ReqSuite Cloud variant, which has supported our learning initiatives effectively.

In summary, ReqSuite® RM has proven to be a robust, adaptable, and well-supported solution that continues to evolve with our needs. We highly recommend it to organizations seeking a powerful and user-centric requirements management tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The installation prcocess for updates is sometimes not so easy as the rest of the tool. This depends on our decission to host ReqSuite internal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

ReqSuite allows you to build your model depending on YOUR needs, not yet another template from the textbooks. By design, this tool allows easy collaboration and integration of new users.

For administrators, it is super simple to set up a new project ! Few hours max and you are done !

Their support is super fast to answer, and always willing to help.

May you need to use ReqSuite once in a while or everyday, you will find your way, with just what you need. If you need more, it can also be done ! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would love to be able to fully integrate ReqSuite within my organisation, using our own SSO, or even maybe by hosting my own instances, which is not possible for the moment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The flexibility of ReqSuite® RM is a standout feature. The tool is highly configurable, allowing you to tailor data models, workflows, and templates to your specific needs without heavy IT involvement. The onboarding support is excellent, with responsive and knowledgeable consultants guiding setup and customization. Traceability features, especially the end-to-end linking of requirements, changes, and test cases, bring strong structure to our project documentation. The interface is modern and user-friendly, making it easier for teams to get on board quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The export functionality works well but could be more intuitive, particularly when generating large and complex documents for project stakeholders. The main difficulty we faced was with configuring exports to Word and Excel.

While the export configuration is accessible, it requires significant testing to achieve the desired output, which can be time-consuming. It also involves learning a specific pseudo-code syntax that isn’t very intuitive for standard users, making template creation more technical than expected. Additionally, the notification system could be improved. Currently, there’s no in-app notification center to track updates or changes in one place, notifications are limited to email, which works but isn’t always convenient. That said, the ReqSuite® team has been very receptive to feedback, and many of these aspects are already being considered for improvement in future releases.

ReqSuite RM is a very powerful and flexible modeling tool that allows you to define all the artifacts that are used in defining the scope in project, and very importantly the relationships between them. This flexibility makes it very unrestricted in its uses. For example, you can go beyond modeling just requirements and use-cases by moving along the "chain" of artifacts in either direction, and add artifacts such as "project or program deliverables", that can then be linked to a "business case" or "business strategy" or "outcomes and benefits" artifact. At the other end of the chain you can add artifacts like "test case" or "test plans" or "test runs" that validate or verify the requirements. Much of this flexibility is down to ReqSuite's unique architecture that is based on a Hierarchical Structure (decomposition) rather than a time-based which is predominant with competitive software. This subtle difference is game changing because the focus is on "what you deliver" rather than "when you deliver it". This allows you to view and model projects differently from a deliverable perspective, so all the artifacts decompose from main project deliverable. Finally, ReqSuite's has advanced features like the AI supported intelligent assistance that takes the tool to a new level by raising the bar on the quality of the artifacts. For example, how a requirement is written by highlighting ambiguities, inconsistencies, commonalities between two artifacts, and other grey areas. This allows an organization to introduce a common approach within and across teams creating, reviewing and managing artifacts like requirements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not much it really covers all the basics so well like full traceability (along the V-Model from requirements to test cases), impact analysis (of changes), automatic versioning, baselines, reuse, release management, structure and overview based on underlying data-model. It potentially could have advanced features like copying sections of existing templates into new templates, so models can be copied in, but that is in an upcoming release.

The reqSuite allows us to present our requirements clearly and linked. It is our single source of truth for all our requirements. In case of questions or problems, support is always quickly available! Integration was super easy, just like the implementation of the requirements. We use the tool from time to time when our requirements change or new ones are added. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
