StarUML

What do you like best?

The best thing about this tool is that it is very user friendly and very helpful in visualizing the requirement of the project in the graphical and hierarchy form. It also helps in creating different kind of models and determining dependenies between different elements of model. Also using this tool, we can perform dependencies test on model which helps in validating our model before finializing it.

What do you dislike?

While testing, sometimes it does not behaves as per expectation. But working it with care can resolve this.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

Whenever you start working on new project, or creating user requirement document for project, you can consider using this tool for creating different models which will help client and new fresher developer joining to our project understanding you project and its requirement in easy and efficient manner.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

After creating a user requirement document, when we say client to check it, the client sees this as a tedious job to do because the document contains lots of textual data only. Using StarUML, I use to overcome this problem by adding different kinds of models into the document along with text, which helps client to keep engage in it and visualizing requirements in a graphical and hierarchical manner, which is easier to understand.
