## Reviews

### "Approachable for users, but maintenance and back-end support is tricky" — 3.0/5

> **Katie** | *16 April 2018*
> 
> **Pros**: Working in LIVE DOCS is very intuitive for entering requirements.  And, the Subversion back-end makes going through history pretty trivial.
> 
> **Cons**: The back-end, from the technology to the administration GUI, is all over the place.  And, the system seems very fragile and easy to break.  Licensing is a constant pain and I have doubts about the software's ability to scale.  It does not seem very enterprise-ready.
