What is SpectrumSCM?
SpectrumSCM is a comprehensive software configuration management platform built to help development teams manage and track changes to source code, documents, multimedia assets, and any other content that is part of the software delivery lifecycle. It brings together version control, issue tracking, code review, release management, and other key capabilities into a single integrated solution.
At the core of SpectrumSCM is a powerful version control system that maintains change history and supports branching and merging workflows popular in modern agile processes. Developers can work concurrently while keeping track of who changed what and when across parallel streams of work. SpectrumSCM integrates with all major version control tools like Git, SVN, Mercurial, and Perforce.
Beyond version control, SpectrumSCM provides extensive project planning and tracking tools centered around a customizable issue tracking system. Issues can be grouped into sprints, milestones, or custom hierarchies to organize workflows. Users can assign issues, change status as work progresses, associate issues with code commits, and much more to coordinate teams and understand progress.
Comprehensive access controls and permissions allow managers to control what users can see and do across projects. Dashboards and reports provide visibility into recent activity, issue status, release progress, and more. SpectrumSCM also enables code review, documentation management, integration with IDEs and CI/CD tools, and other capabilities that support the complete dev to delivery lifecycle.
In summary, SpectrumSCM provides integrated tools for work and change coordination across parallel streams of development activity. It brings together version control with agile planning and tracking to provide centralized visibility and control over the software delivery process.
