Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It can generate reports showing a burndown chart, burnup chart, and the planned vs actual velocity.""Agility is highly flexible. It can do much more than what our client is doing with it. They use it in a defined way. Some at that company have a much broader knowledge of agile and SAFe, but they're given applications and a mandated way to work. We had to work within their parameters and provide an accurate transition so the data would be mapped and pushed through.""It allows my clients to have one central tool to manage their agile projects.""With some of the other tools, you have to buy 20 different plugins to get to the same capability that comes with the basic Agility capability.""For visualization capabilities, the automation capabilities make it possible to support the different personas. The features and capabilities are excellent and come with excellent support."

"The most valuable features are in-line editing, easy custom view setup, intuitive and helpful visuals (e.g., contextual formatting) and the collaboration features.""It scales very well. It improves in technology constantly and gets up to speed with the latest and greatest.""With this product, searching for historical information or the evolution of the requirement, detecting conflict between projects has helped a lot.""The effect of these kind of tools drives the way you organize things. It helps you shape the way you flow.""CA Agile Central provides visibility into how teams are meeting business objectives.""It has allowed the quality assurance team to keep all information in sync with the application requirements and user stories for our general development.""The Defect feature. In one view you can see all your defects and you can push them into the different releases.""We have teams come and go all the time. We have teams in India, America, Ireland, Poland, Italy, England... we are spread out everywhere! Rally is our key tool for scrum planning and our single source of truth, and it handles it all flawlessly."

Cons
"There is room for improvement in getting the analytics portion of the solution more integrated with the rest of it.""In my work as a contractor, it's always frustrating when a client has multiple software applications that don't talk to each other and they all perform the same function. That presents a huge challenge between their IT groups.""The machine learning features are a new capability but could be improved. This is being worked by Digital.ai currently. Multicolor simulation, specifically, could be improved.""The user interface can be improved by adding Save, Edit, Add, Cancel, and Return buttons to the popup windows that are displayed when you click on a child item.""Improve how to create and track releases. Currently, I have to create child projects."

More Digital.ai Agility Cons →

"I think the interface could be a little bit more visual and less wordy. Right now, it seems like it's just a lot of text on the page. In other ticketing systems where it's more visual, you can see more of a flow. But in this one it's more just a list of tasks. I would like to see that a little bit better, especially considering it has so many great organizational features, like child tasks, different artifacts. It would be great to see it presented more appropriately.""We'd like better dashboards to make visibility better.""The navigation within the tool sometimes is a little tricky for me. I'm sure with more use, more practice, I'll become accustomed to it, but some of the things just aren't intuitive.""More importantly, we are seeing internal challenges from Atlassian because of their highly integrated suite that enables further automation and centralization of activities that are also highly necessary – messaging notifications cued off builds, collaboration on Solution Architecture Documentation, etc.""We did submit an enhancement request. I think a lot of teams that do very large scale products have the same issue. They just do not realize it would help them.""I'd like to be able to color code timeboxes, so I have an easy visual way to track the success of sprints.""I think there is a missing link with the development activity. Some developers are pushing in new versions of the code, but you cannot make the link from the user story to a specific application version.""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)."
