What Kovair ALM is
Kovair ALM is a browser-based application lifecycle management platform for managing requirements, development, testing, defects, and releases. It supports Waterfall, Scrum, Kanban, and hybrid approaches, with configurable delivery methodologies. Teams can build artifacts, forms, layouts, views, filters, reports, and dashboards through mouse-click configuration rather than code. Its traceability links requirements to releases, with impact analysis and audit-ready reports. Test management connects cases to requirements and defects, supports online or Excel execution, and can create a defect when a test fails. Defect tracking includes severity, status, and assignment policies. Workflows support conditional branches, delays, waits, editing while running, and progress tracking. Kovair says its Omnibus integration layer connects with more than 100 tools, including Jira, ServiceNow, and Subversion. The platform can be accessed through a browser without client installation and from Android and iOS devices. Pricing is available on request; the listed plan has no published price.
