Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Atlassian, Nutanix and others in Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) Suites."How you write your user stories, and the requirements gathering, in Agile Manager is pretty good."
"Gives me a dashboard where I can see what things are not being worked on, what things are blocked."
"It's designed around Agile, so it has all of the pieces that match up with the process."
"If teams are tracking correctly and entering their information correctly, it's really easy to see where you're at, within your release, and whether you're on track or not."
"The effect of these kind of tools drives the way you organize things. It helps you shape the way you flow."
"Rally Software provides the capability to accurately estimate the time required for building large software projects, which can be challenging to predict...Rally Software enables us to schedule tasks better, allocate resources, and meet project deadlines."
"Helps me plan an estimate of how soon or how far out we'll be able to deliver something."
"It's a good platform to keep track of all the user stories across all projects. So rather than having one off Excel spreadsheets with all of the requirements, it is a good place to have all of that."
"With this product, searching for historical information or the evolution of the requirement, detecting conflict between projects has helped a lot."
"The testing module that we are used to, that wasn't there at all."
"There are few customisation options. For instance, the workflow for story cards cannot be changed out of the box from the standard (Defined, In-Progress, Completed and Accepted)."
"The Reporting feature can improve, especially around executive summaries and dependency mapping."
"Rally Software is highly complex, and it takes some effort to get everything tied together. But once you do, it's a satisfying experience, and the result looks beautiful. Azure, ServiceNow, and Jira do not have all the features that Rally Software provides in one place, making it an exceptional tool for project management."
"I think there needs to be some simplification. The team-level side can be challenging and complicated."
"In Rally Software, the connection with GitLab and GitHub needs improvement."
"Customization features may not be exposed or unavailable, so people may be looking for them. So, customization is an area people have told me is more desirable."
"In terms of improvement, perhaps some more metrics. If they could add some additional, that would be cool."
"One problem I see is that if there is a dependent user story - for example, if my team is working on one thing and there is a dependent user story from another team - we can have a dependency created but we don't know if there is a change of status from the other team. That is something which is very important for Agile Central to look into so that if the other team makes any changes we will be notified as well."
