FAQs
Can my team access Violet Requirements?
Yes; users who only need to view requirements are free. Uses who need to edit requirements are considered a requirements user and require a license; see Pricing for details.
I already use a requirements tool: why would I use Violet?
There are great requirements management tools in the market! We've observed their data can become siloed and teams can be challenged to keep the whole group up-to-date. Further, requirements are often disconnected from the design and verification data relating to them, so systems engineers spend lots of time manually keeping things aligned.
Violet offers a means for teams to access their requirements at no extra charge, while also dynamically linking your specs to other data on the platform. Set up a link once and get notified of changes while your traceability products are automatically updated (verification traceability matrices, e.g.). Gone are the days of exporting to CSV: if you need your requirements data in other tools, Violet can synchronize updates to the appropriate destinations.
Can my customer or partner organization access Violet Requirements?
Yes! Violet supports Guest Users, which grants your external collaborators read-access to requirements and the ability to view and add comments.
Instead of exporting your latest specs and posting that data to the customer's portal, just invite your stakeholders to Violet where they can directly collaborate!
