Since the first release of Rational Team Concert, we’ve always wanted to make it really easy to try out. In an effort to make this even easier, we’ve installed a sandbox Rational Team Concert [Edited on Dec. 17, 2010 to point to newer RTC 3.0 sandbox] server at Jazz.net, where every registered user can set up their own project area to experiment with Rational Team Concert. With your project area you can try all our features, including work items, planning, source control, and more. You can even invite your friends to join your project so you can try it out together, or demo to other people!

In addition to having your own experimental project, we’ve created two read-only sample projects that can be used to browse projects with real data, such as nice dashboards, work items, and release and iteration plans.

Please go ahead and play in our new sandbox. The sand is clean, and we promise that we will be keeping the cats out!
