  • 8.63 - Content Header Design

    By: Jeremy Jeremy , 2 months ago
    As part of the Jama Connect 8.63.0 Cloud release, an update to the content header for components and items resulted in abnormal database behavior and sporadic performance issues. As soon as Jama Software Support identified the issue the new feature was turned off, which returned the content headers to their previous design (as seen in 8.62.0 and prior).

    No functionality or data has been lost. 8.63.1 Release to release the new header design has now been scheduled for Tuesday, August 3rd for North America and EMEA, and Wednesday, August 4th for Australia/APAC.

  • Change to support processes for OpsHub customers

    By: Decoteau Decoteau , 8 months ago

  • Episode 3: Optimization Webinar Series

    By: Decoteau Decoteau , 8 months ago
    Join Colin White, Senior Consultant at Jama Software in Episode 3 of our Optimization Webinar Series: Building a More Effective and Efficient Product Development Process

    An ideal product development process requires close collaboration between teams, up-to-date knowledge of applicable regulations, and an efficient requirements management platform for defining, verifying, and validating requirements. However, not every manager is convinced that his or her team needs to do a better job on requirements development and management, or that such an investment will pay off —despite numerous industry studies which indicate that requirements issues are a pervasive cause of project distress.

    In the third episode of our Optimize with Jama Connect webinar series, we’ll cover some of the ways our customers have used Jama Connect to improve not only their requirements, risk, and test management processes, but also their end-to-end product development process and outcomes.

    Class takes place Wednesday, February 10th at 8:00am PT | 17:00 CET
