New in Zoho Sprints: Release Management

New in Zoho Sprints: Release Management

Hello all,
  
We are excited to launch the next big feature on our roadmap - The all-new 'Release Management'. We can hear your 'WOW' and yes we're also happy to hit our next milestone. Agile as a concept strives in delivering a qualified outcome at the end of each iteration. This process will not only help hasten your delivery but can also stand as a potential to plan your next phase accordingly. Do you think these iterations are sufficient to run your projects? 
 
For instance, if you have a big project with a team of 500 employees working together, managing and tracking every iteration is a tedious process. A group of members will work across diverse project goals like: New features, Enhancements, Integrations, Bug Fixes, etc. All these goals will run across different iterations. 
 
You need something bigger to sketch your plan effectively and schedule your deliverables on time. This is where a release management acts as a blueprint to run your projects productively. You can create a release plan for every goal of your project, run different iterations in a single release, and deliver larger outcomes in a destined time frame. 
 
Highlights of the 'RELEASE FEATURE' in Zoho Sprints
 
Make your release plan picture-perfect with these entities:
  • Releases run across the default Stages (A stage defines the status of your release) - PLAN, ONGOING, RELEASED . You can create custom stages (if required).  
  •  Create templates for your release and use them for similar projects in the future.  
  •  Add new or associate existing work items to your release.  
  • View the commits and pull requests attached to the associated work items from the source code management tools.   
  •  Filter and export your release anytime.  
  •  View release reports and track performance of your release in the reports section.

Here's a quick video on our release module. We have provided help tips to guide you. Take a tour and start working with your releases.

Happy releasing!

                                                              Hello there, It's been a week since we launched the Zoho's only agile project management tool - Zoho Sprints. I guess you guys are loving it! Bringing agility to your team has never been this easy because you will be able to inspect, iterate, and adapt. You have a requirement; break it down into smaller units; get the work done in parallel; receive the deliverables in shorter phases called sprints. The best part of Agile is you get a chance to quickly respond to change and not stick to a fixed plan.

                                                                                                              Hello Zoho CRM, How do I update "Lead Status" to more than 100 records at once? To give you a background, these leads were uploaded or Imported at once but the lead status record was incorrectly chosen. So since there was a way to quickly add records in the system no matter how many they are, we are also wondering if there is a quicker way to update these records to the correct "Lead Status". I hope our concern makes sense and that there will be a fix for it. All the best, Jonathan

For the growing number of people using services such as odrive to sync multiple accounts from various providers (Google, Dropbox, Box, OneDrive, etc.) it would be really helpful if you implemented standard protocols such as WebDAV / FTP / SFTP so that alternative inc clients can be used.

Instead of manually exporting data every time, users can schedule exports for Phases, Tasks, and Tasks in Zoho Projects. These exports can be set to run once, daily, weekly, or monthly

                                                                                                              I have created a pivot table showing annual revenue of a client and how much payment that client is paying my company. Is there a way using pivot table to add an additional field that subtracts those to fields / shows me a percentage of that difference?
