Requirements Management & Collaboration Made Easy
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates Jama Connect from other similar products?
Jama makes managing requirements much easier. We were using SharePoint before, putting everything into a shared Excel file. It limited our ability to collaborate, which is what makes Jama way better. I don't have to send additional emails or set up meetings to open the Excel doc and run through requirement questions with my team. We can all work on it together or separately. I get notified when requirements are added and updated, which is very nice.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
Requirements traceability is the big win here for me. I can see where the requirement came from, who authored it, if it's been changed, and if our team used it in design. And the collaboration is just wonderful. Now everyone can review and edit congruently, which wasn't the case with Microsoft Excel in SharePoint. Search feature is great also, as long as you're using tags.
What do you dislike most about this product?
I don't love the reporting. It doesn't provide enough useful reports, or provide me tools to create the reports I really need. I usually create my own reports in Excel, which just adds additional time to my workload.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
Jama works best with the enterprise license. If you don't get this license, you won't be able to really access all of Jama's features, such as working congruently as a team.
Pros
- Client Friendly Policies
- Fair
- Acts with Integrity
- Client's Interest First

What differentiates Jama Connect from other similar products?
The ability to get started easily and simplicity of use for our requirements process.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
My favorite part of this product is the version control and transparency it facilitates between us and our clients. In a large scale project with many people involved keeping everything organized can be a very difficult task and Jama has made this a much smoother process.
What do you dislike most about this product?
The more advanced features can be a little hard to pick up sometimes but there is a lot of online resources that help.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
If requirements gathering and sign off or tracking is a very big part of your business I would highly recommend giving Jama a try.
