Good app but too high price per year. Hope it can offers other flexible plans for users to adopt it.

Very intuitive a easy to use req. management tool. It really helps me with my daily work!
by Tomáš Jelínek, 2017-01-20

The demo version of this software is FREE, which makes it much less stressful to demo. Works well, but I'm a newbie to requirements management software, so a high level architectural overview tutorial would be more helpful than the functional tutorial approach included with the tutorial. Seems to be able to do everything I want, but I'll probably use a mind mapper (eg mindmap) to do the requirements first, then import them into reqview - see how it handles that along with the inter-relationships and interdependencies, collaboration, version control management, etc. Otherwise - Looks like a reasonably robust requirements management desktop tool.
