Q3 updates for Zoho Sprints

Hello all,

I hope you are all doing great. Happy to connect and share a few updates. This quarter is filled with small yet interesting new features and enhancements. Let us take a look at them right away!

Zoho Projects integration

We successfully launched the much-awaited integration between the waterfall and the agile model. Configure your Zoho Sprints portal with Zoho Projects. Start mapping the projects, work items, log hours, and users in both applications. Learn more.

 

Work in progress limits

Every status on your board can now be set up with a maximum and minimum value using 'Work In Progress' limits. This will help the team stay organized with the ideal number of work items. If the status limit exceeds the allocated maximum value, you can move them to a different status to balance.

Work item checklist

Prepare a to-do-list for your work items to get things done easily. You can group a similar set of checklist items under a common checklist group. Learn more.

Custom tags

Tagging is one of the essential elements that make your work easy. Create tags for a particular set of categories and tag all the relevant work items. Bulk select and filter work items based on these tags.

Archive epics

Epics are a collection of user stories, tasks, bugs that run across multiple sprints. Once all these work items and sprints are completed, the epic is accomplished. You can now archive all the completed epics and view them later.

Export reports

You can now export reports using the 'Copy and Paste' function. All you need to do is select the window, copy the content, and paste it to your excel sheet. Now, save it as an XLS file. Learn more.

MS Teams integration

Configure your sprints portal with the Teams platform. Integrate your account with MS Teams and manage your work items across the board and backlog. Learn more.

Sync GitLab and Bitbucket issues

• You can either authorize your GitLab.com URL or the self-managed URL to configure it with Zoho Sprints. 
  

• While associating projects to repositories, you can mark a single project as an 'Issue Project'. This will automatically sync all the upcoming issues added in the repository to the project.
  

That's an end to our third quarter. 

Are you excited to explore what's coming up for the last quarter?

Here's a sneak-peek 

• Work item linking:  Link work items with similar set of goals using the default or custom link types.
  

• Custom roles and permissions:  Create new roles and define permissions to the users in your team.
  

• Release management:  Forecast your product growth, estimate the capacity of your team, and plan your upcoming product releases well ahead.
  

Integrations

• Zoho Cliq
  
• Zoho Meeting
  
• Zoho Mail
  
• Slack

• Zoho Sprints - Your team is all set to sprint ahead

  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.
