Clearcase is a monster... almost a full time job.
IMHO, should revision control be this complex?
It is a sophisticated program but, from this developer's view, way too much.

Good luck -- the WAN performance with the 'dynamic sandboxes' was
absolutely terrible for us (there is no equivalent in CVS[NT], but
that's how everyone was using CC).  There was also a problem with the
authentication in our mixed NT4 / Win2K domain structure that resulted
in is moving *to* CVSNT.

I never got too deep into CC (it was administered by another group) but
it seems like a capable product.  It was certainly expensive enough...
