Merative Ideas Portal

Shape the future of Merative!

We invite you to shape the future of Merative, including product roadmaps, by submitting ideas that matter to you the most. Here's how it works:

Post your ideas

Start by posting ideas and requests to enhance a product or service. Take a look at ideas others have posted and upvote them if they matter to you,

  1. Post an idea

  2. Upvote ideas that matter most to you

  3. Get feedback from the Merative team to refine your idea

Help Merative prioritize your ideas and requests

The Merative team may need your help to refine the ideas so they may ask for more information or feedback. The offering manager team will then decide if they can begin working on your idea. If they can start during the next development cycle, they will put the idea on the priority list. Each team at Merative works on a different schedule, where some ideas can be implemented right away, others may be placed on a different schedule.

Receive notification on the decision

Some ideas can be implemented at Merative, while others may not fit within the development plans for the product. In either case, the team will let you know as soon as possible. In some cases, we may be able to find alternatives for ideas which cannot be implemented in a reasonable time.

Strengthen OOTB Password Rules

OOTB 'Change my password' link for internal users only has very weak rules, i.e. the only check is that the new password matches the new password confirm, and it is actually possible to set a single character password.

    Hi Garry,

    We acknowledge that this enhancement request has been accepted for consideration.
    It will not be delivered as exactly requested as SPMs core business does not include the provision of complex password changing algorithms or security logic. We do accept that there does need to be improvement in how we expose and document this area.

    IBM may consider and evaluate any RFE Community feedback for this request through activities such as voting.

    IBM will update this request in the future.

    Thank you for your interest in the Cúram product.
    Shane McFadden, Cúram SPM Product Management team
