"The linking of PI Objectives with different features was one of the cool things. It had features, epics, and stories out of the box."
"We've actually used it for virtual PI planning. We have teams in different locations, and we actually virtually do PI planning, big-room planning, using the tools."
"The most valuable features of Rally Software are the executive dashboards, ease of use, and many other features. They have encapsulated everything that a GI can do, such as monitoring, maintaining, and then releasing. It's continuous integration and development."
"The Defect feature. In one view you can see all your defects and you can push them into the different releases."
"Ease of use - I don't even know when a new release is coming and I don't need to because it's so easy to use what's new."
"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."
"We use the roadmap features, and we're getting better at using dates to use the roadmap so that we can see if we're on target for work."
"It is very stable. It has been on the market a long time."
"Helps me determine how fast I can launch, go to production."
"It should just have the integration with Jira. We haven't looked at it since Atlassian bought the product."
"We want Rally to generate OKRs, to allow teams to record the OKRs, and then the OKRs can be mapped to the epics and there is organizational alignment."
"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)."
"In terms of improvement, perhaps some more metrics. If they could add some additional, that would be cool."
"I think there needs to be some simplification. The team-level side can be challenging and complicated."
"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."
"Customization features may not be exposed or unavailable, so people may be looking for them. So, customization is an area people have told me is more desirable."
"In Rally Software, the connection with GitLab and GitHub needs improvement."
"I'd like to be able to color code timeboxes, so I have an easy visual way to track the success of sprints."
