Manager Tools and Performance Engineering at a pharma/biotech company with 10,001+ employees

I'm actually looking forward to leveraging more of Octane - on the capability in Octane and knowing that Agile Manager will move into Octane gives me that long term perspective. Octane's important in our environment because of the flexibility - the fact that you can get information from a development environment and know that you can shift your focus more to the left. From a testing perspective, I can see the areas that the developers are executing multiple times, where their defects are. That would influence the testing part of the organization to say, "Maybe that's an area that we should focus on, giving that there are multiple defects." I'm actually looking for that better integration using Octane as that mechanism and probably as the Agile Manager add-ons come in, expanding it.

Manager, IT Product Support at a retailer with 1,001-5,000 employees

* The Sprint Closure feature is very helpful to capture the sprint retrospective information. * The Storyboard is an easy way to manage the stories at a high level. This can be configured to include more flexible Kanban statuses. * The ability to easily filter and sort from multiple screens and then be able to export this information is great. This is a quick way to get reports the way I want to see them. * Dashboards are flexible and visible. * I also like the ability to update backlog items from a list view so that you don’t have to pull up each one to update. This saves a lot of time. * The ability to make mass updates to records saves time.

Director of Enterprise Applications at a logistics company with 10,001+ employees

Resource allocation and management across multiple products. We have the same resources working on multiple products each with their own releases, and Agile Manager does not handle this well, so the overloading or underloading of resources is difficult to monitor. The only way around this was to call each product an application within the same release cycle artificially in order to really track the allocation of resources and workloads. ALI integration needs to be improved. We have some large multi-module projects and for the SVN and Jenkins servers we need to completely reset them up every release which is cumbersome, there should be an option to copy the configuration from one release to another for the ALI integration. The dashboards are excellent views into the project but you cannot drill in or copy the graphs into a powerpoint or word document to provide a status synopsis. There are some long standing bugs on the storyboard that allow user stories or defects to be moved to the left rather than the right if people make a selection within the User Story or defect. It should provide a warning as if you have a lot of user stories it can be hard to find the ones reporting wrong. For the integration with ALM, it is done via a user account rather than a system account so the history of change will reflect the integration account rather than the user that actually made the change. User accounts are managed by email address, this is an issue when a company changes domain as the account cannot be changed.
