Your path to business agility
Introduction by Planview AgilePlace COO Jon Terry As many of you know, we’ve been working for a while to develop a new version of Planview AgilePlace that, among other things, will allow our customers to manage their enterprise projects and portfolio with a hierarchy of multiple levels of kanban boards. Some of you might have seen...
As citizens and taxpayers, I’m sure we all like to see our governments working to become more efficient and effective. And here at Planview AgilePlace, we’re obviously pretty bought-in to the idea that applying Lean-Agile to an organization’s operations can bring dramatic productivity improvements. So, we’ve been excited this past year to see strong signs that people...
Introduction by Planview AgilePlace COO Jon Terry We know — we geek out a lot about people using us for construction, or manufacturing, or logistics, or auto repair, or talent management or whatever. Our business at Planview AgilePlace really has spread quite a bit beyond our software development management roots by now. But, we still recognize that our...
Well, we finally did it. Planview AgilePlace now has file attachments. When we first started out, our corporate clients were a little leery of this whole SaaS thingy.

First and foremost, Professional Edition users can now add comments to their cards by replying to system-generated notification e-mails. So, if someone assigns you a card, adds a comment in...
As we mentioned in an earlier post, our customers have integrated Planview AgilePlace with many different kinds of systems. And we provide services to develop integrations if you don’t have the time or inclination to do this yourself. But, if you do want to develop your own integration, read this article about our API in the Planview AgilePlace Knowledge...
One of the new features just released in Planview AgilePlace Kanban is the ability to specify WIP Limits by Card “Size”, instead of the number of Cards in a lane. Earlier this week, after announcing this feature, I got a couple of “Really?” emails like this one, from Arne Roock: Chris, just saw your new features. Most of them...
We are excited to announce a new set of features for our Team Edition based on ideas coming from our best source – you – our customers. We think you’ll agree that these features help move Kanban from the team level to the enterprise, while still retaining our trademark ease-of-use. And just wait ’til you see some...
