Plastic SCM is a powerful Software Configuration Management solution that monitors and manages source code alterations.
However, it is important to note that it comes with some limitations, including a 30-day trial period and a maximum of 5 users.
In the latest release, Plastic SCM became the go-to SCM system after proving to be a fantastic replacement for its predecessor. The software offers great branching support, Visual Studio integration, and provides an optional Microsoft SQL Server back-end. Keith Richardson, senior web developer at Dinsmore & Shohl LLP, confirms that the exceptional technical support provided by Codice Software was a decisive factor in choosing Plastic SCM.
Joe Niski, senior analyst at Burton Group, explains that the two biggest challenges for SCM systems are enabling highly parallel distributed development and making project status visible to developers and management. Many products support distributed teams but few provide useful visualizations of a project's code base. Plastic SCM takes a task-centric approach to version control, facilitating swift development lifecycles. It also includes graphical views of changes, providing extra value for managers and developers.
