Overall Satisfaction with Team Foundation Server
We used TFS in conjunction with a SharePoint upgrade to roll out Agile/Scrum. The key thing was traceability between MS products (linking). There were multiple project teams and a scrum of scrums was used. Adoption rate was decent, but it was tough to cut the cord on share folders.
- Traceability between MS Suite
- Clear what's a Bug, User Story, Feature, Epic
- Linking test cases
- Bad use of real estate is it's No. 1 failing, why all the white space?
- Too much functionality makes it difficult for new users to jump onboard - it's daunting at first
- Configuring dashboards is easy, but not necessarily what you want to show to upper management - needs some tweaking
TFS is more robust; JIRA is more user friendly for management
