Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"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 can generate reports showing a burndown chart, burnup chart, and the planned vs actual velocity.""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."

"It is very easy to make a software release. It used to take us at least a couple of hours to make a release, now we went to production with a new one last night. This new release took me five minutes.""The solution handles complex deployments very efficiently.""The most valuable feature is the snapshot functionality, which allows us to access previous versions of the artifacts.""The stability is good. I haven't experienced any issues.""Stable solution that's good for automating the CI/CD pipeline: from development to production.""The most valuable functionality is the ability to define the deployment process, schedule the deployment and automatically execute the deployments to different environments."

Cons
"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.""Improve how to create and track releases. Currently, I have to create child projects.""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 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."

More Digital.ai Agility Cons →

"The technical support of the solution could definitely be improved as PMRs take long to resolve.""I certainly would like to have a better way to pass information between deployment steps using UrbanCode Deploy because that's really difficult to do.""The scalability of this application needs improvement. Changes and variations in the application become bottlenecks as they need to be more seamless and comfortable.""I would like to see more reporting for container architecture.""The interface allows access in a number of ways but that can be confusing.""I would like to have the agent up and running at all times, as opposed to only while it is in the DevOps pipeline."
