Get it Right. The First Time.
Do-overs are for golf, not your business.
Pretty As You Please
Why guess when you can know? Using Prototype Composer, you design real user interfaces with all the bells and whistles, not just the wire-frames. (Unless you really want wire-frames — we're ok with that too.) No more reams of requirements documentation, no more depending on a developer's imagination. By starting with the finished user interfaces, you can begin usability testing before a line of code is written. User acceptance is the beginning, not an afterthought. As it should be.
But we don't stop there. When you're ready to turn that prototype into code, you can publish it seamlessly to Dimensions RM where you can manage dependencies, flesh out details, and trace your requirements all the way to production.
Play Nice
Finger-pointing. Blame game. Scape-goating. It's got lots of names, and none of them are nice. When users ask for one thing and then get something else, everyone wants someone to blame. What's to blame is poor communication. So stop the dissing and make the requirements process idiot-proof.
We make it easy to get everyone on the same page, no matter your style. Think in pictures? Try our free high-fidelity prototyping software. Looking to comply with CMMi, SPICE, or myriad other best practices? Capture and manage requirements with Dimensions RM. Are User Stories more your thing? Serena Agile On Demand makes creating and managing User Stories a snap.
Working With Business People is Easy
Translating requirements from business people doesn't have to be hard. Stop trying to communicate via Word documents. Instead, fire up your mouse and start building pictures. Prototype Composer has a full palette of controls and widgets just waiting to be used.
In less time than it takes to write page 1 of a typical requirements document you can sit with a business person and create a working prototype of exactly what they are looking for. No more miscommunications. No more trying to guess what people meant to say. You can get everyone (even business people and developers) on the same page from the get-go.
