"It's an integrated system that includes all the information that we need to deliver our products smoothly and to track the progress of each piece of code."
"The traceability is valuable. While managing the workflows, it was always nice to have that traceability from requirements and all the way through design. It integrates with Microsoft Test Manager, and you can have everything that is related to a requirement attached to it."
"Team Foundation Server (TFS) is easy to use, and we have a complete trail and traceability. We also like the access control part."

"The dashboard needs more enhancements."
"I would like to see TFS improve its web interface as there are some limitations with IDs and the integration behind it and with open-source tools like VS Code."
"Integration from Visual Studio could be improved."
"The user interface could improve and test management was not useful in TFS."
"In the next release, I would like them to include integration for various projects, similar to what JIRA has, and they could create this feature on the dashboard."
"Sometimes we feel that it need more CPU, and RAMs on TFS server, either we implemented the hardware with the product minimum requirements."
