The Infogenium Blog: April 2007

Today I’m pleased to announce the availability of EdgeRM™ 1.0 Release Candidate 1. This is a pre-release version available via download for public evaluation.

EdgeRM allows software project teams and individual developers to create and organize the requirements for their software development projects, including features, use cases, and operational requirements. It provides an intuitive web browser interface for easy access to all project-related information. With EdgeRM, development teams and business stakeholders can collaborate efficiently throughout the development cycle. EdgeRM makes it easy to see what is being built and where you stand in the development process. Built-in support for RSS makes it easy to get the latest updates.

Whether you are a project team of 20 or a Micro-ISV proprietor, EdgeRM can help you achieve improved development productivity and product quality.
