Would you pay for TMS (Test Management System) solution?
My company is developing tms platform.
After a brief survey across all projects in the company, it turns out a lot of folks are using Google Sheets to manage theirs runs, test cases whats not.
As to why company is doing it, i can only assume money. They did a short demo its quite nice, looks similar to TestRail (but with Jira-vibe, if you know what i mean) with AI (obviously).
But i started to wonder that it was made for QAs use only. And usually someone else is making calls as to what product/solutions/tools to buy.
If you were to ask from management on your project - do you want this or that solution to manage test cases, test runs - would you try and persuade PM or CFO to pay extra for a tool? Or just use free solution? Or use something else like Google Sheets as tms?
Obviously it depends on your project, team and management and maybe something else, but...
Note: cannot share this platform, nor I want to promote anything, just curious what you think
