BambooRM Offers SaaS-Based, No Installation Service that Connects Offices Around the World For a Low Monthly Subscription
Bamboo® Solutions, provider of technologies that enhance Microsoft® SharePoint®, announced today that it is launching BambooRM™, a revolutionary SaaS-based requirements management program that requires no installation, is easy to use, connects workplaces all over the globe, and is available via monthly subscription. BambooRM allows project managers and teams to collaborate on projects more easily with one repository of project requirements.
“Before using BambooRM, our global team would use up a great amount of time in gathering and coordinating requirements in order to get to a common understanding,” said Pawan Gandhi, Project Manager, OCS Infotech. “With BambooRM, we were able to bring all project stakeholders to one common platform to effectively collaborate, discuss and agree on requirements, manage changes, and control both content and user management features.”
BambooRM simplifies requirements management by integrating use cases, business and functional requirements -- all in one place. Managers, business analysts, consultants, and team leaders can view, manage and trace project requirements online in their browsers, including:
- Creating business requirements for any product or service.
- Defining and associating sub-level business requirements.
- Associating use cases with multiple associated business requirements.
- Associating functional requirements with each business requirement.
- Prioritizing business and functional requirements.
- Tracing the project requirements.
- Creating and printing requirements with easy-to-read summaries.
“We work on complex projects with clients across the globe,” said Sanjeev Fadnavis, President, OCS Infotech. “I used to be frustrated when I had to approve travel budgets for meetings to get all the stakeholders together for final requirements understanding and documentation. With BambooRM, we have been able to save an incredible amount of time and money. BambooRM just works.”
BambooRM features include:
- Task Management -- allowing users to see allocated tasks, including those tasks assigned to themselves.
- Versioning -- allowing users to maintain different versions of a project.
- Outline View -- a hierarchical view of the use cases, business and functional requirements, along with a representatn of the parent-child relationship between them.
- Shared Documents -- between and among team members.
- Traceability -- to document the life cycle of both requirements and functions.
- Move Release to Release -- enabling the migration of data from one release to another release.
- Download Pdf/Word -- supporting the creation of documents in both .PDF and Microsoft®/Word® format.
- Workflow -- designed for use case, business, and functional requirement reviews.
- Bulk Import Wizard -- allowing users to import data from various data sources.
- Discussion Items -- to enable collaborative discussions among team members.
“The great thing about BambooRM is that it offers users what they’ve been asking for in a superior requirements management program,” said Michael Tanner, CEO of Bamboo Solutions Corporation. “BambooRM is built upon Microsoft’s SharePoint platform and allows users to get up and running in minutes. They can then collaborate with team members from anyplace in the world. And, because BambooRM is offered as a service,” said Tanner, “users do this without the need to purchase software. They can simply subscribe monthly by paying a nominal monthly subscription fee.”
BambooRM costs $29/month and is billed quarterly. Visit the Bamboo Online Application website for more information about BambooRM.
