What RaQuest is
RaQuest is a requirements management tool that operates as an add-in for Enterprise Architect (EA). It tracks requirement details such as status, priority, risk, assigned members, comments, change history, relationships, and test items. Project tree and list views support filtering, sorting, and condition-based searches across a project. For review work, teams can manage changes and approvals, establish baselines, and compare a baseline with an earlier one. RaQuest generates project documents in RTF, HTML, CSV, and Excel formats and includes an add-in for importing requirements from MS-Word. Its EA integration connects requirements to UML items and supports traceability, matrix diagrams, and creating Use Cases from requirements. Information is saved in an EAPX or EAP file or an EA repository. RaQuest runs on Windows 11, Windows 10, and Windows Server 2022, 2019, or 2016; it does not support non-Windows systems. A 30-day trial requires EA 15.0 or later. The Standard license is $156 per license, and the Floating license is $280 per license; both require EA.
