Work Item Followers

Work Item Followers

Zoho Sprints has introduced a feature called Followers that allows you to follow or to be added as a follower to a work item. Once you're a follower, you will automatically receive notifications whenever there's an activity in the work item.
 
David is the manager of his engineering team. He'd like to keep an eye on the overall assignments of his teammates. Instead of assigning the work items to himself, he just follows them. This helps him to stay up to date about the progress of each work item.  

To follow a work item,    

  1. Navigate to a particular work item.
  2. Click the Follow button. 

To add followers,   

  1. Navigate to a particular work item.
  2. Click Add Followers on the right corner.
  3. Select the users to be added as Followers and click Select .
  4. Click Add .

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.
