"Our technical sales staff and business development people need to know how far the developers are on any product that we're developing. DevOps makes it easier for you to see how far along they are with the work because they have a repository where they store everything. There is a portal where you can see what has been done, what has been tested, what is working, and what isn't. I have a huge dashboard with an overview of what the development team is doing from an executive point of view."
"Typically the sprints themselves and managing the tasks have essentially eliminated our need for reporting."
"They need to continue improving the interface with the third-party options."
"It would be great if they worked more closely with other solutions. There needs to be better integration with the platform for development purposes."

"The UI, the user experience, is challenging for newcomers."
"It would be great if I could integrate with a human resource type of software that could control timesheets."
"We are facing a lot of issues in the development of containerized solutions. We are facing a lot of challenges in this area. They could make the process simpler."
"The solution can improve by adding integration with on-premise tools. The only built-in repository options are GitHub and DevOps."
"Azure has not yet advanced to the performance level of the other major competitors and is missing integration with important technologies."
"Some of the queries, the way they're built, need to be looked at. We need better query tools."
