List of Agile Tools
In order to carry out a project successfully, the project manager requires assistance with a set of tools. These tools can be generally regular productivity tools to help project management work. Moreover, the use of such tools usually makes the project managers work in ease as well as standardizes the work and the routine of a project manager.
Criteria For Choosing Agile Tools
Notably, the best agile tool provides the following important elements for agile project management.
- Task management – Firstly, Kanban or Scrum boards incorporate projects, task lists and everything else that goes with it. For example from files and discussions to time records and expenses.
- Team collaboration – In addition, communicate updates with local and distributed teams and share task lists, feedback, and assignments
- Agile metrics, reporting & analytics – Further, time tracking and projection, easy-to-understand progress reports for stakeholders, quality assurance, and progress with tools to identify and remedy project obstacles, evaluate performance, and appraise financials
Lastly, I check for integrations. I want to make sure the tool plays well with the right tools. Therefore, in the case of agile tools, which are often required for developing software, I treat integrations with software development and issue management tools with higher priority. However, it is important to keep in mind that teams in non-development environments will not need this type of integration and would benefit more from integrations with other work apps like Slack, Google Apps, Adobe, etc.
