Tools Survey: Requirements Management (RM) Tools

Introduction: The Tools Database Working Group welcomes you to the Requirements Management Tool Survey. By way of some background, the Tools Database Working group consists of both tools users and tool suppliers who have been around Requirements tools for a number of years. Due to our common interest we began gathering information on Requirements Tools and working with the Requirements Management Working Group, developed a set of requirements for Requirements Management tools (thus the questions/requirements you are about to see). We surveyed the tool vendors asking them how they felt they stacked up against the requirements and you see the results as received from the vendors. Thus the disclaimer below...each of us associated with the Tools Database have strong opinions about these tools--what they can and can not do from our own experience; however being a professional society, we did not feel it was our place to edit the answers or judge the truthfulness of the answers. As the well known joke in the CAE business goes...

What's the difference between a CAE salesman and a used car salesman?

The used car salesman knows he's lying.

As such, we apologize in advance for the "quality" of some of the vendor supplied answers and recommend that you verify the answers to your critical requirements yourself (and be sceptical of any vendor who claims they can do everything).
