Share your experience using Zoho Sprints

I use Zoho Sprints for Agile project management. It supports Scrum and Kanban frameworks, allowing me to work with epics and user stories, and manage projects effectively. It is suitable for software industries that adopt Agile methodologies in their projects.

Zoho Sprints can be integrated with other Zoho products, providing additional functionality. It is cost-effective with a simple pricing plan and supports small to medium-sized teams. I can also integrate it with other Zoho products like Zoho Books and Zoho Invoice.

There is a need to improve the charts and velocity calculations in Zoho Sprints. The session for charts should be enhanced to provide better insights.

I have been reselling Zoho Sprints for about two years.

Zoho Sprints is stable with minimal downtime. There is a dedicated website for maintaining downtime, ensuring reliability.

I have not encountered many limitations to using all the features of Zoho Sprints. It supports features like sprints, releases, epics, user stories, and backlogs.

The customer service and support for Zoho are good.

Neutral

Zoho Sprints offers both monthly and annual licensing options. I can select according to my requirements.

I would rate Zoho Sprints an eight out of ten. 

The charts and dashboards need improvement.

Zoho Sprints is a defect-logging tool. Once we do the testing, the defect needs to be logged. We log it in Zoho Sprints so that we can track the time taken for resolution. We also use the solution for status because it goes through various stages. Once development is complete, it gets assigned to the testing team. When the testing team is completed, it goes for deployment, and so on.

Zoho Sprints is a defect-logging tool. Zoho Sprints is a more cost-effective solution than Jira. Other than that, everything is standard, including the logging of defects. You can change the status and track it through the different stages. Another useful feature is time logging, where the resources can log their time.

Zoho Sprints is a confusing tool, and you need to get used to it. It's not as simple as Jira, where everything is clear about what needs to be done.

Since Zoho Sprints is a SaaS system, it is scalable. It's a web page. You create as many projects as possible and share them with the team members.

More than 50 users are using the solution. Currently, we are running around six projects simultaneously, and we plan to increase the usage. Scalability is addressed through the cloud. We use Amazon and Google Cloud to upgrade automatically.

The solution’s technical support is excellent.

Positive

We previously used other tools like Jira and ClickUp. Jira is a time-tested tool that has been around for years, and many people and companies use it. ClickUp was something new but had some issues, so we dropped it and switched to Zoho Sprints.

The solution's initial setup is very easy. The solution's deployment is immediate because it's a web version. The moment you create a project, it's all ready to go.

On a scale from one to ten, where one is difficult and ten is easy, I rate the solution's initial setup a seven out of ten.

Ours is a small entrepreneurial team, and everybody is a developer. We have three leads, and the rest are developers. The leads handle all the deployments.

The solution is good for tracking defects. People work in different time zones, and Zoho Sprints is an excellent tool for managing them well. The solution provides around 60% to 70% improvement in efficiency.

Zoho Sprints is a more cost-effective solution than Jira.

Zoho Sprints is a SaaS solution. We do backlog grooming through a spreadsheet with the corresponding executives from the client side. It's not done in the tools. We use Microsoft Excel for planning. We do have maintenance with all the customers. We use various tools. We use WhatsApp and other collaboration tools for high priority cases. Otherwise, we use Slack.

I would recommend the solution to other users.

Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.
