Development
The agile tool you want to use
Build an agile development environment that puts team happiness and productivity first
Take control
Every engineering team's process is unique. Your approach will vary based on a number of factors — such as the type of product you are building, development methodology, and technology stack. Use Aha! Develop to create an agile development environment that perfectly fits your workflow. Choose between a scrum, kanban, or hybrid approach and integrate with the dev tools you already use. Extensions empower you to customize nearly every aspect of your experience. This simple yet powerful approach lets you put just the right amount of process in place so the team can do their best work.
Streamline workflows
Software development is a blend of roadmap-driven work and technical work. Getting the balance right requires a clear view of everything that needs to be prioritized — so you can make tough trade-off decisions. Create a unified backlog that ties features from product management in Aha! Roadmaps with engineering work in Aha! Develop. Estimate effort using story points or time and move work into sprints based on the team's capacity. Or pull cards straight onto a kanban board and get started on the work.
Track delivery progress
Move work efficiently through your development process. The workflow board provides a single view to track progress, drive collaboration, and facilitate stand-ups. Agile reports — including burndown, velocity, cycle and lead time, and throughput — provide insights into how the team is performing so you can optimize every aspect of your workflow. Use Aha! Develop and Aha! Roadmaps together to create a unified environment that keeps product management informed of updates in real time. This unlocks a new level of visibility and collaboration as you work together to achieve your release plans.
