I've been satisfied with Jama for years.
What do you like best about the product?
Everything just works. The administrative tools are flexible and allow configuration to match our team's workflow. It has highly configurable reports to allow us to export data for use in our document control system.
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be nice to be able to test reports without going through support staff, but they have a very quick turnaround so it's not too much of an inconvenience.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Jama to track marketing and system requirements as well as test cases, test execution, and risk mitigation. It's a very flexible system that allows us to keep all of our software documentation in one place.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
When we were looking, they offered us a long trial period, so try it and see if it works for you.
Jama is simple, all inclusive, and continually evolving!
What do you like best about the product?
I like the freedom to store my documentation, requirements, risks, tests, and defects all in the same place. This, combined with Jama's great tools for review and collaboration, make Jama an ideal tool to use for large teams and cross-functional activities.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are only two misses that I really feel an impact from in Jama so far. I think the testing tool could really use some bolstering. Maybe look to tools like Quality Center and implement some of the more complex testing tool options. Another smaller piece centers around Change Requests. Jama allows for users to associate scope items with a change request, which is very helpful. But then, after linking, there is no way to query items based on their association with a change request. This makes it difficult to gather scope for a release where the release is composed of multiple change requests worth of scope. I think this could be a very simple, yet elegant, fix.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Cross-functional collaboration is at an all-time high for teams at our company that are using Jama. Being part 11 compliant means that our content never needs to leave Jama and that is very helpful.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
On top of being a great working tool, this product is easy to transition into, and it also gives great APIs if you're ever forced to move to another tool or transition data.
Great tool for recording requirements and proving audit trail for any changes made
What do you like best about the product?
Very easy to use; easy to set up reviews and track changes to requirements; like the option to export requirements into Word or Excel; worked well for a big team like ours-easy to manage the licences
What do you dislike about the product?
Formatting when you export is not good; Highlighting a requirement in a review, do not allow reviewers or approvers to go straight to that requirement; Searching in a review by Unique ID needs to be improved-currently is not available

Jama Review
What do you like best about the product?
The User interface, navigation b/w different pages, ease of access is very good. The mappings between various test artifacts / STLC stages (Design spec, requirements, TCs, Reviews and defects) is available easily and this is very helpful and easy to understand.
What do you dislike about the product?
We were using Jama for API automation, and there were frequent changes in the web elements/element path, due to which we were supposed to make the code changes frequently and thus caused our scripts were not stable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Using Jama, we can map all the testing artifacts (from Design spec till the defects) in one place (ex: test case page), and thus, the artifacts can be accessed quickly. Because of this ease of mapping artifacts, we could reduce the manual effort for the same.
I love how easy is to keep track of requirements from beginning to end, great customer service!
What do you like best about the product?
I like the ability to link or tag the requirements to either specific stakeholders or groups. I also like the ability to create links between business requirements to system requirements, all the way to test cases and keep track on a visual monitor. Jama is always innovating and adding new capabilities and functions based on user feedback. The customer service is five stars. The granurality that can be achieved by requirement is great!
Keeps track of every requirment updates and notes who did the update, it also allows users to send feedback and add tags.

I expect better
What do you like best about the product?
The review center is good. It is good that teams can add their comments and tehy are shared
What do you dislike about the product?
Where do I start. If your session expires and you have not saved you cannot get what you input. If you try to exit and something is unsaved, it gives you indication of what needs to be saved. On big projects it is a nightmare. It is 2021 - surely you could provide a spell check with the option to take a suggested spelling. Better support for Visio. Does it really have to take so long to commit a page to be saved. When I am reviewing comments it is a nightmare trying to align a comment to teh text and edit it at the same time. JAMA is equally despised by BSA and Business. Out team often shares screen shots at the poor product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The only thing I will give you credit for is the sign off process. Beyond that, Word was far more effective and allowed for a more creative solutions to requirements.
Jama Connect for Requirements Management
What do you like best about the product?
High level of configurability of the item types and relationships. Convenient review process. Good utilities to compare items and track history. Comes with powerful filtering capabilities.
What do you dislike about the product?
The product versioning handling is not straightforward and requires administrator to create a specific project for each product iteration. This is a must for most non-trivial scenarios. UI glitches also require recurrent database re-indexation by administrator.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Jama Connect is used to track requirements and their validation for all of our products. The traceability provided by the tool is necessary for us to achieve ISO 26262 certification.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Jama Connect is a modern solution covering the necessary aspects of product requirements traceability. It does require proper analysis of how the flow should be setup to fit your personal needs. In particular, product versioning management needs to be carefully thought through.
JS JAMA Connect Review
What do you like best about the product?
Very versatile system to manage design inputs and traceability and has good technical review management capability.
What do you dislike about the product?
JAMA does not have a sophisticated diagramming tool. It is also very difficult to create custom reporting - this is a very large gap.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
JAMA has helped us organize our design inputs efficiently and analyze traceability, completeness, and status of requirements
