Tip #7 - Scrum settings

Tip #7 - Scrum settings



In Zoho Sprints, right after you create a project, by default you can start only one sprint at a time and once the sprint starts you will not be able to add or move work items to it. To overcome this limitation, we have introduced "Scrum Settings" to help you with two things:
  • Add new work items or move existing work items from the backlog to your active sprint on board.
  • Start multiple sprints at the same time. (You can start only 5 sprints in parallel).
Say, you run a big team and you've got multiple sprints to be delivered in a month, this setting will come in handy. By enabling it, you get to run sprints in parallel and accomplish them without any glitches. 



 Note: This feature is available in our paid plans for the admin level users.

Doesn't it sound cool? Yes, then try it out and share your feedback with us. You can also get in touch with our support folks. Either mail to us at support@zohosprints.com or connect with us through live chat from 10:30 AM to 7:00 PM IST (Live chat is available only for Indian customers).

          • Tip #28 - Plan less and deliver more using WIP limit in Zoho Sprints

            Hello, It's been a while since we met with a quick, interesting tip. As the saying goes, "Too much of anything is good for nothing", today the focus is on delivering your outcomes with the right amount of planning. Your plan should be practical, calculative, and achievable for driving a qualitative success.    Laura's plan   Laura has a habit of planning her project deliverables before assigning work to her team-mates. Once the plan is finalized, she schedules a general meeting with her team and
          • Tip # 3- Working on the Scrum board

            Continuing from our Tip #2 on leading to a sprint, let's see how to manage the work items on the Scrum board.  Once you start the sprint your work items are automatically displayed on the Scrum board where you will actually manage the work items. It is a snapshot of the backlog items identified for the current sprint.    The layout of the Scrum board Simply put, the scrum board is just like a physical board with sticky notes on which the work items of the active sprint are displayed.  The scrum board

          • Tip #1- Why swimlanes?

            Lanes define a clear path to reach your destination. In Agile, swimlane is one such concept that sets a simple and clear process of the work that you do.   The concept of swimlane can be related to the pool, where the swimmers gather in their respective lanes to start off. Similar to the pool, work items are grouped in different categories. Each category is referred as a lane and is displayed in horizontal format. Swimlanes are effective in categorizing the work items with respective to specific

                                    Creating campaigns are difficult.  I'm fairly computer literate but some of the way Zoho Campaigns formatting works is painful.  Images fail to upload or are very slow. To top it off, syncing the contacts is a pain as well as temperamental links to create Segments. At this rate I'm afraid we might need to migrate back to Mailchimp.
