Pitfalls to avoid when choosing an Enterprise Agile tool
Planning and Tracking Weak PPM capability, unable to support cross-project reporting
Quality and Test Management Add-ons for parity hides costs and management complexity
Enterprise DevOps Costs of CI integration with lack of CI SDK for extensibility
Traceability, Reporting, Analytics Limited traceability with reporting capabilities difficult to setup
Deployment and Integrations Little cost efficiencies when working at enterprise scale
Enterprise Readiness Unable to transition from waterfall to hybrid app development
Cross Collaboration Workflow capabilities are complex to set-up
