"It is very user-friendly."
"Basically, the capacity to construct various products is something I find handy."
"The work item feature is most valuable. It allows us to store all product requirements. We can also link the test cases to those requirements so that we know which feature has already been tested, and which one is waiting for testing. We can also couple the code reviews, unit tests, and automated tests into these requirements. It is reliable. It has all the features and good performance. It also has reporting tools or analysis tools."
"The most valuable features are test case writing and bug tracking."
"The solution is very much stable."

"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."
"The solution's server for deployment needs to be improved."
"The dashboard and the customization of dashboards is an area they have to work on."
"The project management side should be addressed and the project and release planning should be somewhat extended."
"I'm looking for specific options that aren't currently available, such as active status, new status, or what's currently in progress."
"I understand Microsoft is phasing out TFS in favor of Git, so I would steer anyone interested in TFS to look into Git."
"Microsoft should discontinue the use of SharePoint as I don’t really see any value add to TFS, document management features can be included in TFS web portal itself, if required!"
