As PTC places PTC Windchill RV&S is confirmed in the market. PTC is able to lead the market well. It is due to the American university mechanism for software research and science that innovation does not come the first time up in industrial software applications. Software …

There are some tools which are available for free like GitHub. I've used StarTeam when it was a product of Borland, and while using PTC Integrity, I feel PTC Integrity has most of the features which were available in StarTeam. Although there are some other free tools like …

The single interface that it provides to access all the information about the project, right from requirements to the source code.
Chose PTC Windchill RV&S
We liked that PTC Integrity requirements management, testing and source control are accessible through a single interface. This is not what we found with DOORS. DOORS only offers requirements management and testing and they are in separate interfaces. We are also beginning to …
Chose PTC Windchill RV&S
Nothing compares with PTC Integrity.
Chose PTC Windchill RV&S
I think the reason that PTC Integrity was initially chosen is that it was the best product available in the mix at the time. This coupled with the PTC deal on multiple products was a no brainer based on the size and scope of potential users.
Chose PTC Windchill RV&S
It allows for all functions (analyst, developer, tester and release manager) to be completed using one tool.
Chose PTC Windchill RV&S
We evaluated IBM's offering and CMstat. IBM's offering is "klugy", we needed Rhapsody, ClearQuest and ClearCase to get all the components to answer our requirements. And it's very costly. CMstat offered a good change managment solution, but was lacking in version control …
Chose PTC Windchill RV&S
I was previously employed by a electronic laboratory notebook (ELNN company in Columbus Ohio. I felt that MKS and the ELN that I worked at in the past were more or less similar in terms of functionality, however both the products address different needs.
Chose PTC Windchill RV&S
It was the price and company size which was the key factor in this case, compared to other similar products.

MS Team Foundation is much better, it is flexible and customizable.

Source Tree and Stash with Git.

MKS integrity does well in some areas such as merging changes into the main trunk and managing change sets. We actually selected Git after using MKS integrity for over 7 years.
Chose PTC Windchill RV&S
MKS Integrity is a toolbox of components that you can use to create any Software Change Configuration Management system to fit your own organization. This was the main reason why we went with Integrity over the other solutions that were evaluated.

User Testimonials
PTC Windchill RV&STestuff
Likelihood to Recommend
We enjoy doing requirement mappings. The enhancement in transferring them between models is great. It is for innovation all the time a challenge to conduct them. We have two major scenarios for that task set. One is to integrate already well-validated models into greater sets. The other is defining totally new ones. We developed new strategies and refined the existing ones. We rate the synching requirement configurations as comfortable. The processes of synching the items back to the models. The major advantage is to optionally synchronize all-important and intended traceability relationships from Modeler so that both can be given the correct right the right group of uses while others only see the structures. We too prefer the handling of deletion and creation. It is a real advantage how the mapping and relation are implemented. The implemented integration to third-party tools for requirements definition and management is a plus. We like the profiling features and the high compliance to industrial standards as well as the module variability modeling.Windchill RV&S makes us perform better and let us take over control. It enhances our return-of-investment efficiencies to the top. The only drawbacks are the high skill levels needed and the necessary relation in businesses to make the profits. Another topic is the resources that are needed.

I do not make decisions on what tool my company uses. I am just the user of the tool and such decisions are not handled by me. If I were to make such decisions, I would definitely renew MKS, considering the amount of data we have stored in MKS and the current number of users who are familiar with the system

Usability
PTC Integrity comparatively could be considered a nice Source code management, Version controlling tool and could be compared with tools like StarTeam. If the integration to move/migrate code could be integrated into this tool, it would become an extremely powerful tool.

There are some tools which are available for free like GitHub. I've used StarTeam when it was a product of Borland, and while using PTC Integrity, I feel PTC Integrity has most of the features which were available in StarTeam. Although there are some other free tools like Tortoise SVN, it's always better to stick with tools which are licensed and supported in case of any issues/problems.
