| Features | Details | Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Process Awareness & Customizability | Rational Team Concert allows each team to teach the tool its best practices. Rational Team Concert uses this knowledge to automatically detect violations of your teams' process the moment they happen. | Improves the productivity of your teams and quality of the work they produce |
| Team Awareness | Rational Team Concert knows your project teams, their internal organization, and the artifacts they are working on. To mention only one example, in order to subscribe to a feed with all events specific to a team, just select the team in the user interface and select 'Subscribe to Team Events' from the context menu. | Greatly simplifies access to team-related information and performing team-related operations |
| Work Item Tracking | Work items are the fundamental mechanism in to track and coordinate development tasks and workflows, all governed by your team's associated process. In addition work items are the hub for linkage between many artifacts (e.g. builds, work items, and change sets), as well as providing support for integration with other products. Work Item customization can be used to create new work item types or modify existing types in order to support the development process that your team follows. | Improves productivity of a wide range of IT stakeholders and improves IT process integrity with automated traceability across a broad range of development tasks. |
| Source Control | The Source Control component is a component-based version control system. Its focus is on supporting geographically distributed teams and has strong support for parallel and agile development. It's built from the ground up to support a highly integrated collaborative development environment, integration with defect tracking, integration with builds, and process-centric automation. | Improves productivity of your developers and quality of their work with in context collaboration and seamless integrations with other development processes |
| Agile Planning | The Agile Planning component provides tools to assist with the planning and execution of development iterations. It provides tools to create iteration plans for teams, to create individual plans for developers, and to track the progress during an iteration and to balance the work load of developers. Plans are accessible to everyone on the team, and can change dynamically over the course of the iteration to reflect the team's position and direction. | Easily allows teams to adopt agile development practices |
| Continuous Builds | The Team Build component integrates the team's build system, providing build awareness, control, and traceability to the team. Team members can track build progress, view build alerts and results, request builds, and trace builds to other artifacts like change sets and work items. | Improves development quality by inherent traceability with other development processes |
| Transparency/Project Health | The Team Reports and Web Dashboards components help you to keep tabs on the health of your project. Dashboard provides an at-a-glance view of work item queries, event feeds, reports, and other items that are critical to understanding your progress. Reports provide both real-time views and historical trends of builds, streams, work items, and other artifacts that your team works with. | Helps managers and team leads to easily monitor projects and address problems and bottlenecks before they endanger delivery schedules |
| Integrations | Rational Team Concert also integrates with other products, such as Rational Quality Manager, Subversion, and git. The integration with Rational Quality Manager is part of the Collaborative Application Lifecycle Management (C/ALM) effort which will also include Rational Requirements Composer. | Lowers implementation costs by promoting adoption with existing tools and infrastructure and improves IT efficiencies by enabling enables a broader end to end application lifecycle management practices. |
| Broad client support | The Eclipse client and client for Visual Studio provide developers with rich, integrated development environments for building and delivering software. The Web 2.0 based interface allows users to access project areas, browse repository information, update tasks, or read about recent events, is well suited for server and project administration. | Provides a rich experience for developers via the proven Eclipse and Visual Studios frameworks and for other stakeholders via a flexible and robust web client. Common licenses can be used with any client. Common vendor support across environments. |
| Broad platform support | Support for a wide range of servers, including various Windows & Linux variants. | Lower TCO and improved developer collaboration for multi platform organizations |
| Document Collaboration (Licensed separately) |
Connecting Rational Team Concert with either Microsoft SharePoint or Lotus Quickr document libraries simplifies document collaboration and document management with direct links to your project, team, and personal document libraries. It also improves the transparency of the software delivery process and extends project governance by including business and IT stakeholders in document reviews and approvals. Rational Team Concert integration with Microsoft SharePoint and Lotus Quickr document libraries is delivered via Document Collaboration for Rational Jazz. |
Simplifies collaboration between development and non-development organizations, further increasing IT efficiency. |
| Buy only what you need | Implement individual components of Team Concert. For example, you may only need Agile Planning and work item support. Flexible licensing lets you implement just what you need. |
|---|---|
| Implement at your own pace | Implement individual components of Team Concert now and others later. For example, you may choose to implement Agile Planning first, and follow with work item management and with version control for developers after that. |
| Compliment your existing tool | Integrate individual components of Team Concert with your existing tools. For example, you may choose to add Team Concert Agile Planning to your existing, Subversion, or git implementation. |
| Implement a comprehensive solution | Implement a comprehensive and unified agile application lifecycle management solution that can include agile planning, work item management, version control, and continuous build. |
| Agile Planning | Add Agile Planning to your development strategies using Team Concert’s comprehensive agile practice coverage capabilities. |
|---|---|
| Agile application lifecycle management | Exploit Team Concert’s full agile practice coverage by implementing agile planning, work item management, version control, and continuous build to create a completely unified agile lifecycle management environment. |
| Collaborative Application Lifecycle Management (C/ALM) | Implement Team Concert, integrated with Rational Quality Manager and Rational Requirements Composer, to tie together work item management, version control, agile planning, and continuous build, along with test management and requirement management, to create a broad collaborative application lifecycle management environment. |
