Access all your requirements in a secure, central and accessible location. Understand what changes have been made, who made them, when they were made and what they affect. Organize, trace and link priorities and requirements across the development lifecycle. View history, reviews and discussion comments within the context of the document.
Improve project agility with concurrent editing
Increase collaboration and project agility through concurrent editing, automated versioning and effective prioritization. Access requirements databases in real time across multiple users without conflict or disruption. Ensure consistent use of terminology with the integrated glossary. Visualize information through customizable dashboards and automated reporting. Edit, author and analyze artifacts on a feature-rich web client.
Get up and running faster in the cloud
Optimize operating costs and reduce upfront capital costs by moving to the cloud, which doesn’t require hardware, provisioning or installation. Scale up with subscription-based services to get reliable and secure data center facilities that have built-in high availability, redundancy and failover supporting infrastructure.
Increase the traceability and visibility of changes
Manage change across the product lifecycle for faster impact assessment and better quality. Explore information with more granularity with individually managed information and artifacts. Assess the impact of changes quickly by linking change requests to requirements through drag-and-drop traceability. Utilize proven models and templates for certification and compliance.
