CM+ 5.2 extends Neuma's leadership position in several key
areas of Software Configuration Management and Product Management (SCM/PM). CM+
Professional Edition gives you all the performance and scalability of CM+ with
a limited suite of applications and limited application extendability
features.
Small footprint and near-zero administration;
Extremely high level of reliability, availability and scalability;
Rapid data navigation across integrated applications;
Maturity of Change Package based CM process, for both very small and very
large projects;
Built-in, robust SCM/PM process that fully supports today's iterative
development lifecycles;
Fail safe capabilities including full transaction journaling and rapid
project checkpointing and automated recovery.
Release 5.2 adds several dozen significant new features,
focusing on four main areas of improvement:
Ease of use and increased navigation capabilities. The Windows tree browser
provides an instant, configurable tree navigator for all your hierarchical CM+
data. Context is applied automatically to all revision controlled objects so
the hierarchy reflects any structural changes that apply.
Reduction in administration and customization. The administrator menu has
been expanded to support the most frequent admin functions. This includes
starting and stopping servers, maintaining licensing parameters, and creating
and registering new libraries. The process menu has been introduced to collect
various operations used to configure CM+ processes.
Advanced CM capabilities and integration of CM with 3rd party tools. Align,
submit and get functions have all been enhanced in release 5.2. Workspace
management functions have been added giving the designer powerful tools setup
and maintain multiple development workspaces.
