Planview AgilePlace vs. Zoho Sprints

AgilePlace is a great way for teams, or individuals, to bring visibility to the work in process and in their backlog. The color coding and icon use helps to quickly analyze the type of work or status of the work. The product team is doing a good job at listening to their user's feedback and implementing improvements. Where it falls short is when reporting needs to occur.

Best suited for agile software development and project management. For those who have tough and tight requirements where changes need to be done simultaneously along with the development, this can come in handy. Sprints would give a clear idea of who is doing what in a project team. Task status, bugs fixed, planning, everything under one tool.

• Okta Integration: We love using SSO for all our SaaS apps, and as new team members join, they can be automatically joined to the appropriate LeanKit boards.
• Filtering and viewing: Can filter and refine by several fields as well as custom fields. Assigned Users, Tagged, Card Type, Date, etc
• Their analytics and reporting can be helpful for PMs, especially if they have several teams they oversee.

• Custom Design For Organisation
• We can easily track the performance
• Can track bugs and time spent on a particular task

• The formatting of what they call "cards" could be better. They can be clunky if you have a lot of text in just one.
• Needs better support for media, attachments.
• Not the most pretty interface in my opinion, though it works.

Incentivized

• Perhaps it could be a little faster, with so many functions the platform becomes somewhat slow and delays the work.
• The boards to organize tasks do not show me all the pending tasks of various projects, it would be ideal to be able to modify this to be able to centralize the pending tasks.
• Mail notifications are abundant and stressful, I tried to eliminate receiving so many emails but it seems to be a failed mission.

we are happy with the tool and the service and continuos improvement of the tool so there is no need yet to change to another one.

LeanKit isn't the best designed Kanban system I've seen, but overall it's pretty usable. The boards I've used are pretty complex, so it can be difficult to find things. I found that searching and filtering for specific cards was somewhat of a challenge. Dragging a card from one lane to another is kind of a fun way to get things done though.

Every time I have reached out to the AgilePlace support team I have received a timely response in addition to professional & personal feedback. Their consultants are knowledgeable and the management team is happy to jump in and help when needed.

Very easy.

Originally, we had evaluated two other tools next to Planview LeanKit: Kanbantool and Kanbanflow. The latter was a close contestant for productive use, as it was also very customizable and a joy to work with and look at. It also had lower user fees and a mobile integration. In the end, we picked Planview LeanKit because of several reasons: Aesthetics: The look was much more clean and professional. Reporting: It was obvious from the start that we could use Planview LeanKit as a tool for improvement. API: We needed to integrate the Kanban into our central systems and Planview LeanKit API was (and still is) a way to do it. Card Headers: This sounds like a simple thing, but the headers above the titles fit our work perfectly and looked perfect, which helped the decision.

They are similar and very powerful tools, with really incredible functions. But Zoho Sprints gives me much more customizable dashboards and interface and the reports are much more tailored to our particular work.

Good use cases for small/large teams

• Our team meetings are more direct and quick to get through thanks to the better visibility of the workload
• Easily being able to move cards between team lanes gives instant visibility to where the responsibility for the next step is needed.

• It is accessible, it helps us manage and track multiple projects and tasks easily.
• Creating Sprints is easy, besides, it has many integrations.
