ReqView review
A traceability-focused requirements tool with a useful free plan and costly paid entry.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
ReqView is a requirements management application for software, hardware, and systems engineering projects. It organizes structured requirements documents with custom attributes, traceability links, verification and validation data, risks, change proposals, reviews, approvals, impact analysis, baselines, and project version comparisons. Teams can work through web, Windows, macOS, and Linux applications, making it suitable for engineering groups that need requirements control across different environments.
Its strongest fit is for teams that need traceability and controlled change management rather than a basic document repository. Requirements traceability matrices, verification and validation records, risk management, approval workflows, history, baselines, and Git or Subversion version control cover the core activities of a structured requirements process. Import options include Word, CSV/Excel, and ReqIF, while export supports DOCX, XLSX, PDF, HTML, CSV, and ReqIF. These formats can help teams move specifications and reports between ReqView and established engineering workflows.
The pricing structure gives teams a low-commitment starting point, but the paid tiers become substantial. FREE provides read-only project access, limited editing for one document, up to 150 objects in an editable document, and one custom attribute. PRO costs €440 per user per year and adds traceability, document exports, and basic Git or Subversion version control. TEAM costs €600 per user per year and adds dashboards, table views, linked projects, advanced Git version control, and integrations with Jira, Azure DevOps, Sparx Enterprise Architect, and ReqIF. ENTERPRISE costs €1,800 per floating client per year and adds unlimited users plus floating licensing. ReqView suits teams willing to invest in formal requirements practices; teams needing only lightweight, inexpensive task tracking should choose an alternative.
