RTC Another ugly child
I gave it a try and I do not like it. The UI still inherits the clearquest web ui concept (it reminds me about CQ a lot).
Many things are not intuitive, as a reference just look at JIRA UI, try to install it and get your first project setup. P.S. I expect tomatoes thrown my direction, but could not keep quiet :) |

Hi Alex I suspect you will be rather disappointed if you are expecting tomatoes - there is a very polite and reasonable bunch of users and developers on this forum. Given your comparison to JIRA, it sounds like you might not have got very far into the product - RTC does a lot more than defect tracking. It's worth digging a little deeper if you have the time. Why not stick around, make some good suggestions, log some enhancements, and we can collectively make this a better product. I am sure your comments will be more appreciated than you might imagine. regards anthony |

Hi Anthony,
First think I want to apologize for the first post, it looks more like shouting then a constructive conversation, it was a first reaction to RTC install and startup process (what is a breeze on JIRA). And if I would not write this first short post probably I would give it up later, so wrote it wile I was "angry" :) And I know that RTC is much more then what JIRA is. I think that jazz is a great platform, so it deserves a UI with a better usability. I'll play around with RTC few days and I'll try to get a list of thinks that I'd like to see in the UI changed, as there is a lot of cool functionality, that is not very handy exposed to the users IMHO. Thanks, Alex |
Hi Anthony, No problem...I am sure people will appreciate your feedback when you build up your list. You only get one chance to have first impressions on a product - so capture them while you are still "angry" :-) Apologies if you have tried this already - but walking through the User Workshop is a good way to try out the tool once you have it up and running. It covers many of the key aspects of RTC and should give you quite a balanced view: https://jazz.net/learn/LearnItem.jsp?href=content/docs/workshop/index.html And if you have questions - ask in this forum, plenty of people around to help. anthony |
