Targetprocess – Project Management for Software Teams

ss-targetprocess
Targetprocess is a visual project management tool designed for software teams. The web-based application gives its users the ability to plan and track any process, including Scrum, Kanban, or whatever custom processes they can dream up.

Available as SaaS or as a downloadable package, Targetprocess focuses primarily on Scrum and Kanban software development methods. Once your team has started using the platform, you’ll be able to view anything you want as a Kanban board. Track the progress of large projects by setting up lanes, using filters, and customizing the content on cards. You can also use lists to view project hierarchies and manage backlogs. When it comes time to start planning for the future. View your timelines. Timelines offer a high-level overview of how your team’s work is progressing through time.

One of the ways that Targetprocess stands apart from competitors is with its custom views. Users can create their own visualizations with as many custom views as they need. Targetprocess doesn’t impose any limits on the custom views that users build. The application also integrates with external systems and mashups that let users add new functionality to the Targetprocess UI.

Practical Uses:

  • Track the progress of a large project
  • See how any individual on your team is handling the tasks he’s been assigned
  • Share boards with people outside of your organization

Insider Tips:

  • Setup default sorting of cards on custom boards
  • Create a project portfolio for your entire company
  • Access boards from an iPhone or iPad
  • Use mashups to add functionality to the Targetprocess UI

What we liked:

  • Targetprocess handles large quantities of cards with ease
  • Users can share boards with people inside or outside of their groups
  • Users can quickly switch between Board and Timeline views
  • Targetprocess offers complete mobile accessibility

What we didn’t like:

  • Targetprocess doesn’t currently offer an Android app

  1. This is a great project management tool especially considering that my business is based in 4 different cities. Knowing how each faction of the company is working is great for me because it means I know where to focus my time and efforts.
