"It is a stable solution."
"User alerts are very helpful for knowing when work is required."

"It has great functionality: work items, backlogs, source code, build releases, and it's easy to use."

"It has been really dated. When you start to work more in an agile environment, it is not really that flexible. They tried to replicate the look and feel of Jira, but it is not quite there. It was nice to use in the past, but it is not as flexible now with the changing development environments and methodologies."
"TFS should allow more integration with different platforms."
"The solution should have better dashboards."
"TFS needs to be stable."
"Merging branches is definitely one of the more challenging aspects for people new to TFS."
