"Jama Connect: Easy Setup and Powerful Review Capabilities"

4/5

What do you like best about Jama Connect?

We primarily use Jama Connect for defining software requirements. The tool offers several features that I particularly appreciate:

1. Administration & Implementation

The system is easy to configure. You can define general settings that apply to all projects—such as permissions, item types with required fields, workflows, and relationship rules.... At the project level, you can select the necessary item types and, if required, override permissions or workflows.

It is straightforward to maintain consistent behavior across projects. Additionally, configuration changes can be applied centrally, affecting all projects at once.

For reporting, Word/Excel templates can be created quickly and easily, although they come with certain limitations (e.g. you cannot aggregate information). More complex reports can be generated using Velocity templates, which can be challenging for beginners and it is time consuming.

For integrations, Jama Connect provides a well-documented API that allows you to retrieve, update, or create objects (including configuration objects, requirements and test items).

2. Requirement Structure & Definition

Requirements can be organized into Components, Sets, and Folders. A Set corresponds to a specific item type. Moving requirements between folders is simple, and item types can easily be converted into others. This flexibility is especially helpful during the initial implementation phase if you need to adjust the structure.

The Excel Roundtrip feature is particularly useful when working with item types that have many fields to update. (Note: For description fields, you must define them in HTML format, which is slightly more complex.)

Importing requirements from Excel or Word works well, provided the source document is well structured with headings. All imported items initially share the same item type, but you can easily adjust this afterwards.

3. Review Functionality

The review feature is excellent. You can send a batch of requirements for review and assign specific reviewers. Reviewers can highlight text within the requirements and add comments. These comments can be tracked and filtered, and once they are addressed, they can be marked as resolved. You can also compare changes between review versions, provided that the same items are included in the same review. This means you need to manually manage the items in review-items, for example using filters.

4. Finding & Exporting Data

Requirements can be filtered easily using keywords or predefined filters. The export functionality is very convenient—especially the context-sensitive export, which allows you to export exactly what is visible on your screen.

5. Testing Features

Jama Connect also supports creating test plans, test cases, and test cycles, as well as executing tests. However, we have not yet made extensive use of these capabilities.

6. Support

During the initial setup, we received excellent support, and the system was ready for use very quickly. Integration with the cloud application and SSO also worked smoothly. Whenever we open a support ticket, we receive fast and helpful responses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jama Connect?

Jama Connect is a requirements management tool, not a project management tool. However, I do miss the ability to plan requirements and track progress directly within the system. This can be worked around using the API or by exporting data to Excel and managing progress tracking externally.

When creating filters, there is currently no way to organize them into a hierarchy. Filters are automatically sorted by item type and name. Over time, as the number of filters grows, this makes it harder to keep track of them—so establishing clear naming conventions is essential.

Regarding license management, the unlimited stakeholder licenses for viewing requirements and performing reviews are a great benefit. However, when a user with a creator floating license is login and if all floating creator licenses are in use, that user is automatically downgraded to a reviewer license. In that case, they can only access requirements that are part of a review and lose visibility of all others.

The search functionality works in a traditional keyword-based way. However, users are increasingly accustomed to conversational, AI-like querying (similar to ChatGPT), which is not yet natively supported in the tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Jama Connect solving and how is that benefiting you?

In the past, all requirement-related information was scattered across Jira, Confluence, Word, and Excel, making it difficult to know whether anything was truly up to date.

With Jama Connect, we have centralized most of this information into a single, reliable source of truth. The transition is still ongoing, but the shift in mindset is already bringing greater clarity, consistency, and confidence to our work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Comprehensive requirement management and part limited test management"

4/5

What do you like best about Jama Connect?

The flexibility in customizing the flow and content of requirement, while still maintaining some simple proces flow. The traceability and build in (visible) versioning is also powerful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jama Connect?

While the requirement management is build around reusability, Test management in Jama, doesn't work quite well when we want to reuse and parameterize test cases.

We have many products where we want to run the same scenarios, in multiple configurations. As we would like full traceability some of these configuration would amount to more than 1000 test multiplied by the different feature scenarios we have multiplied by the different servers. So this quickly becomes thousands of different test cases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Jama Connect solving and how is that benefiting you?

Jama Connect is solving two issues right now. Traceability and product requirement overview, in one tool. This is giver a good overview of how our products are working and how they are suppose to work, how well each feature is tested and what corner scenarios we aren't testing yet.

"A User Centric tool for Requirements Management"

4/5

What do you like best about Jama Connect?

Compared to other tools (my main experience is with DOORS 9.3), Jama Connect provides a vastly superior interface that is far more welcoming and easier to use in comparison. Conducting reviews and approving items is all done within the tool, so the entire history, the engagement and the results are all stored together. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jama Connect?

Getting data out of Jama into formats such as a Word Document or Excel Spreadsheet, is supported out of the box, but customising the output to get it how you like using Word Templates is still extremely difficult and unintuitive. The next option is to use Velocity Reports, which is superior in getting it how you want, but is another level of complexity entirely. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Jama Connect solving and how is that benefiting you?

JFD is using Jama Connect to be the single source of truth for our latest project. We are trying to use Jama to record all the standard requirements traceability, planning for verification and validation and evidence of which all within the tool. We need to address the culture and processes to take advantage of systems engineering and how requirements management is a benefit, we've got all team members accounts for Jama so that they have easy access to all of their requirements.

"Jama review by a DSO employee"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Jama Connect?

A valuable aspect of Jama is in its inherent traceability capabilities and its wide modularity. One can completely customise their item types and dictate the desired (and optional) traceability between those custom item types. Moreover, the automatic versioning of requirements and the ability to have enduring comments on requirements helps with a project/product that has been in a live environment for a number of years. This way, the exact meaning of requirements through its varying versions can always be validated. Although the layout of Jama takes some time to get accustomed to, the menus are very intuitive and it is usually clear how one should navigate the environments. We have not had the opportunity to integrate our Jama set with other often-used tooling in the industry, but the fact that Jama offers such integration capabilities is very useful for an organisation such as ours Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jama Connect?

There are so minor complexities that one could bump into whilst trying to organise the Jama environment to your own needs and desires in spite of its modularity. These can be circumvented through different design choices, but could initially hamper creativity. For example, a requirement can only be attributed to one Release, whilst it was our wish to let it come back in several Releases as part of different requirements packages. Moreover, the lacking of a visual 'family tree-esque' traceability overview can make the structure a bit more difficult in larger projects Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Jama Connect solving and how is that benefiting you?

Jama helps us by providing a platform to properly record and subsequently manage requirements of the business of our organisation and then translate those in technical requirements. The benefit of doing this process in a tool such as Jama is immensely valuable to retain insight into the previously captured information Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great tool for requirement managment"

5/5

What do you like best about Jama Connect?

1. Flexible Item Configuration and Customization

Jama Connect offers a highly flexible configuration environment that enables users to tailor item types, workflows, and attributes to their specific project or organizational needs. This adaptability ensures that teams across various industries can align the platform with internal processes, compliance requirements, and traceability standards. The system supports both simple and complex customizations, making it suitable for agile, waterfall, or hybrid methodologies.

Key Strengths:

- Custom item types and fields for modeling unique data structures.

- Configurable workflows and statuses for each item type.

- User role and permission settings that allow secure, role-based access.

2. Robust End-to-End Traceability

One of Jama Connect’s standout features is its robust traceability model. The platform supports linking between all key artifacts—from requirements and tests to risks and validations—enabling full visibility across the product lifecycle.

Benefits:

- Easy creation and visualization of trace relationships using the Trace View and Trace Matrix.

- Identification of gaps, risks, and dependencies early in the process.

- Enhanced support for compliance audits and impact analysis.

3. Review Center Functionality

The Review Center provides a streamlined and collaborative space for conducting formal and informal reviews. It enables stakeholders to efficiently comment on, approve, or reject items under review while maintaining a comprehensive audit trail.

Key Capabilities:

- Launch and manage structured review cycles.

- Monitor reviewer participation and feedback progress through visual statistics.

- Approve or request changes with clear version control and resolution tracking.

This review mechanism improves stakeholder engagement, reduces review time, and ensures that critical feedback is captured and acted upon efficiently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jama Connect?

1. Limited Reuse of Multiple Item Types from Baselines and Filters

Jama Connect imposes restrictions on reusing multiple item types at once—either from baselines or filtered lists. While it is possible to reuse multiple items of the same type, there is no functionality that supports bulk reuse across different item types in a single operation.

Key Challenges:

- Users cannot select and reuse a combination of different item types (e.g., requirements, risks, and test cases) in one action.

- Bulk reuse is only supported when all selected items are of the same type.

- This limitation is particularly problematic when reusing sections of a project or product definition that span several types of artifacts.

- Filters also do not allow bulk reuse across item types, further complicating cross-project modularity.

2. Fragmented Item View Configuration

The process of configuring item views is unintuitive and lacks flexibility when working across different views or contexts.

Specific Drawbacks:

- New item creation does not prompt or guide users to configure the view layout.

- Users must manually remember and apply their preferred field layout each time.

- It is not possible to apply a consistent configuration across all views—requiring redundant setup for each view separately.

3. No Option to Copy Dashboards

Jama Connect does not currently support duplicating or copying dashboard configurations between users, teams, or projects.

Impact:

- Rebuilding dashboards from scratch for each new project wastes time.

- Reduces standardization of views and reporting across teams.

- Limits the scalability of workspace templates and best-practice reuse. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Jama Connect:

Be careful with adding a new data field to the item. Too many data fields can slow down the process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Jama Connect solving and how is that benefiting you?

1. Aligning All Participants on a Single Page

Challenge: In complex projects with cross-functional teams and multiple stakeholders, ensuring that everyone is working from the same source of truth can be difficult.

How Jama Helps:

- Provides a centralized platform where all stakeholders—product managers, engineers, testers, and external partners—can collaborate in real time.

- Supports structured reviews and approvals, ensuring feedback is captured, aligned, and traceable.

- Role-based permissions ensure the right people see the right content at the right time.

2. Ensuring End-to-End Traceability

Challenge: Projects often suffer from a lack of visibility into how requirements evolve into design, test cases, and final deliverables—especially under regulatory or safety-critical contexts.

How Jama Helps:

- Offers complete traceability across all artifacts—from requirements and risks to test cases and defects.

- Enables impact analysis to assess the ripple effects of changes.

- Supports compliance with industry standards through clear linkage and trace paths.

3. Measuring Progress of Product Development

Challenge: Teams need clear visibility into development progress to identify delays, dependencies, and areas of risk early.

How Jama Helps:

- Dashboards and reports provide real-time insights into project status, item completion, test coverage, and reviews.

- Enables metrics-driven decision-making based on up-to-date information.

- Visual indicators help stakeholders track review cycles, approval states, and trace gaps.

4. Consolidating All Information in One Place

Challenge: Fragmented tools and disconnected documents make it difficult to maintain consistency and control over project data.

How Jama Helps:

- Centralizes all product-related information—including requirements, decisions, comments, and documents—into one structured system.

- Reduces version control issues and eliminates information silos.

- Facilitates faster onboarding of new team members by having a single source of truth.

5. Receiving Fast Feedback from Clients

Challenge: Slow or unclear communication with clients can lead to rework, delays, and missed expectations.

How Jama Helps:

- Review Center allows clients and external stakeholders to review and comment on requirements in a structured and traceable way.

- Speeds up feedback cycles with clear visibility into review status and participation.

- Helps validate requirements early and often, reducing the risk of building the wrong product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"I love using Jama"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Jama Connect?

The user interface is great. You can very easily find requirements and the traceability feature is very powerful and easy to understand.

Jama is highly customizable. I love how you can create unique item types and within each item type you can specify which fields you want to include. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jama Connect?

Jama Reviews are a little clunky and buggy, and lack a lot of features I would like to see.

There is certainly a learning curve to Jama and it took some time to come up to speed.

I think the search feature leaves a lot to be desired. For example, text within a comment on an item does not show up in search results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Jama Connect solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are designing a highly complex electromechanical system. Many teams and stakeholders are involved. Jama acts as the single source of truth for all of our requirements. In addition, it facilitates a clear approval process for those requirements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Jama Connect for medical devices"

5/5

What do you like best about Jama Connect?

Jama Connect is highly and easily customizable. Each item can be customized to the specific needs. Jama Connect helps to create and maintain the documentation for products in regulated environments, like medical devices, from design input to design output. It ensures full traceability between Requirements on different levels, to Risk Management and Mitigations, down to V&V results to fulfill regulatory requirements. Jama Connect allows to define specific traceability rules and is able to analyze the impact of changes to downstream items.

Collaboration is also a big plus in Jama Connect. With the integrated Review Center, it is easy and intuitive to gather feedback in an early stage already, and also to collect approvals for releasing the content. This helps to eliminate the need of having long and exhausting review meetings.

Finalized content can be exported in pre-installed, but also into customized reports/documents.

Jama Connect can integrate with a variety of 3rd party systems like Jira, to also achieve traceability across other platforms and tools.

The support of Jama Connect is fast and can solve issues in a very short time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jama Connect?

When using Jama Connect on a self-hosted server, the installation, administration and maintenance might be tricky. But Jama Connect offers reliable and secure Cloud environments, so that you don't have to deal with it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Jama Connect solving and how is that benefiting you?

When working in highly regulated environments like the medical business, there are strict requirements on the documentation through the complete product lifecycle. Jama Connect helps to fulfill these requirements during development, but also for design changes after the release. With Jama Connect, we are able to easily create all the required documents for the registration of our products all around the world. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
