"Good tool but lacks a few necessities."
3/5
What do you like best about SpiraTeam?

It is good at linking test cases and requirements. Reporting can be useful if done correctly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SpiraTeam?

Cross project collaboration is not possible. I cannot map test cases/test sets from one project to another.

It can get very cluttered if no organization process implemented from beginning, both requirements and test cases/test sets. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

3.5/5
What do you like best about SpiraTeam?

I like the concept of the custom report generator. It would work even better if it were possible to create custom reports without the need to have Administrator rights.

I like the custom fields. It would work even better if it were possible to change the ordering of the custom fields in the dialog screens. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SpiraTeam?

Requirements is listed under "Planning". I could not find them at first use.

The non-standard custom report templates do not allow complex queries. I want to be able to execute SQL queries with joins, for example to list assosiations between requirements and test cases.

The custom reports do not allow to set the header and footer sections of MS Word reports. I cannot generate reports in the style that is prescribed by our company governance process.

The number of standard item types is too limited. I would like to be able to add explanatory text blocks to my requirements, so that I can generate complete reports in company style. Also, I want to be able to structure requirements in chapters, but without the chapter titles being requirements as well.

For a first draft of a requirements document, I want to be able to renumber the requirement IDs. For non-tech people, it is difficult to read documents that have non-contiguous numbering.

I want to be able to layer requirements, so that I can manage all requirements in a single project, but still be able to generate MRS, SRS, PRS, HRS, SWRS, etc. documents.

I want to be able to store and re-use "company-standard" requirements. That way I only need to specify deviations when I have a new project.

The two views on the requirements list are cumbersome to work with Why not combine them into a single view, like JAMA Contour does?

"Spira Team in Health Systems in Cordoba City - Republic Argentina"
5/5
What do you like best about SpiraTeam?

I used other products like MS TFS, (HP /QC and QTP) and Rational iBM Suite, very expensive, for big projects and big companies, with poor customer's support.

But SpiraTeam iis the best for small teams, different metodologies and excellent customer's support

The integration with the other Inflectra products (Rapise Test, Spira Plan and Spira Test) is very full, the same with the Rapise Objects and scripts in Rapise Test for automated, allowing to develop automated test cases many technologies.

Rapise Test ,to developmento automated test cases in Dot Net web system and IIS, is very easy, fast, and acurate product.

On the execution of automated test cases, the scripts run very fast and providing full reports with pass of failed tests. The same for changes and maintenance of scripts

The best of the product is the dashboard and the reporting modules, for the full information provided

Spira team allows configurate all the projects and administrate its very easy and fast, from requirements, stakeholders, tasks, card time, with the inclusion of the aproppiate documents.

Moreover, allows to deverloper the testing plan (with manual and automate testing, with integration in Rapise Test), execution testing, incoming and management defects, bugs and incidents. The same in Tracing Module for releases, tasks and source code.

The integration with other Inflectra products (Rapise Test, Spira Plan and Spira Test) and other sotfware companies, is very full and easy to configurate.

The other Inflectra Products, I hadn't time to evaluate, but the documentation is good and they look very good

Spira Team and Rapise test are used in in Health Systems in Cordoba City - Republic Argentina-Evaluation of Inflectra Products

Spira Team is the best product ALM (comparing quality and price) that I know Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"SpiraTeam is an affordable QA Management Tool with great customer service."
4.5/5
What do you like best about SpiraTeam?

The Customer Service is always quick and efficient to answers questions or issues, which have been few in the 4 years we have been on the product. They continue to develop new features and add to the base product, which is only helping it to grow and stay current with the latest development trends. I love that we have a turn-key solution hosted for us at an affordable price, something no other product we looked at could provide us for the money we had to spend. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SpiraTeam?

I love that I am able to write custom queries to extract whatever data I need to get to, but the output of the data into a nice format I can turn over to upper-level management can be time-consuming.

We love being able to track resource time on tasks and incidents, but the Time Card feature is only a basic input page and needs some updating and feature options to enhance it's user-friendliness.

The user manual specifies the basics of using the product, but I would like to see a better Admin manual for setting up the product to accommodate multiple industries. We've figured it out for ourselves, with the help of Support, but I would love to have a manual I could reference which evolves as the industry does. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Solid Test Management Tool with extensive 3rd party integration features"
4/5
What do you like best about SpiraTeam?

Ease of use, intuitive GUI design, good use of colour, Integration with 3rd party plugins for automation and code management tools. Competitively priced - the features for the money are exceptional. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SpiraTeam?

Some of the 3rd Party plugins are buggy and getting the support team to fix these issues can take a very long time due to the periods between upgrades. Reporting features in SpiraTeam are limited. Needs to solidify it's Agile features. Constantly compared to Jira which is viewed as having stronger Agile features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
