Team collaboration and agile planning

    • Tools for teams to iterate quickly and stay connected

      Manage your team using tools accessible from any modern web browser. Pin favorite queries to your project home page to create a customized dashboard for your team: open bugs, test results, build status, or whichever metrics are most important to you. Your tiles will automatically update to keep everyone on the same page.

    • Agile planning doesn’t mean you have to use Agile methodology. Capture ideas, tasks, feature requests, or user stories, and prioritize them in your backlog with templates ready for Scrum, Agile, or CMMI. Capacity planning capabilities show how much work you’re taking on compared to previous releases.
