Anil Tiwari - PeerSpot reviewer
Ai Solutions & Digital Transformation Lead at UnifyCloud
Task management has become transparent and reporting now tracks team productivity in detail
I reduced my rating from a perfect score because of one concern. Microsoft Azure DevOps is very easy to use. If any person is new to the platform while creating user stories or repositories, it is a very efficient way for people to work. The platform does not require in-depth training. If someone provides a one to two hour description, people with some technical knowledge would understand it greatly. The platform is interesting for both fully technical and non-technical persons. People can use it easily and it is understandable. Anyone can create a user story or Microsoft Azure Board, generate reports using SQL queries while adding conditions, or monitor tasks. Any person with admin rights can see graphs showing which resources have spent how many hours on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. Based on that information, we can measure resource performance, which would be really helpful for management or HR departments when increasing employee salaries, offering appreciation, or providing bonus activities in an organization. Regarding governance and security within Microsoft Azure DevOps, there is strong security because Microsoft provides a secure and productive environment that follows all compliances. Everyone can trust Microsoft because it is a reputable brand in the market. People can rely on and trust any Microsoft product. I am not talking about Microsoft Azure DevOps only, but also CRM, Windows, security, and Entra ID. With any Microsoft product, there is no need to worry about security or compliance concerns. From a security and governance point of view, Microsoft Azure DevOps provides very strong capabilities.
