Award-Winning
Agile Lifecycle Management Solutions

From pilot projects to distributed, multi-team programs, Rally
’s family of Agile
lifecycle management solutions gives teams the visibility and
collaboration needed to formalize and scale Agile development practices
that deliver high-value software in rapid iterations.

Rally unites Agile project management with requirements management, test
management and defect management, so everyone has a real-time picture
of your project’s features and quality, priorities, roadblocks and
risks. Rally’s deep support for all roles and activities in the software
development lifecycle lets you replace expensive and poorly integrated
point tools with a highly secure, hosted web service that starts fast
and scales easily across platforms and geographies for low-risk,
low-cost deployment.

Rally Enterprise is our flagship product for full Agile lifecycle
management

Scale from small projects to distributed, multi-team programs

to manage releases and iterations without undue overhead and complexity.
Rally Community is free for up to 10 users and includes Agile project
management, requirements management, test management and defect
management for a single release team.

roles, tools and dependencies in multi-team programs or cross-cutting
initiatives. Rally Enterprise is a complete solution for the software
development lifecycle that supports multi-team Agile development with
integrations to existing systems and is available in both on-demand and
on-premise deployment options.

Agile Project Management for Rapid Iterations

With
Rally's Agile project management, your entire organization gains
real-time visibility into the status of features and quality,
priorities, roadblocks and risks.

Rally provides release and iteration planning, scheduling and tracking
that supports your team’s natural signaling.

Project management that propels the business

Rally's Agile project management solutions drive early and consistent
delivery of customer value by enabling cross-functional teams to
efficiently plan and manage software releases that propel the business.
By simply dragging requirements from your product backlog into your
iterations and releases, Rally helps you balance resources against your
highest value features and build plans the whole team can commit to.
Project managers—or anyone responsible for meeting customer needs—can:

Manage product and release backlogs that reflect the priorities of the
business.

Use drag-and-drop release planning with high-level estimates to match
resource capacity and historic velocity.

View feature completeness, defect status and failing tests across
multiple projects and teams.

Get real-time access to automatic release metrics, burn down and
cumulative flow charting.

Quickly adjust scope to respond to changing priorities.

Real-time visibility into Agile projects

Rally delivers real-time visibility and low-burden reporting to Agile
projects by supporting the natural signaling teams use as stories
progress through their lifecycle. With Rally, everyone can assess the
priority and state of each feature, how much effort remains versus how
much is available and what needs to be done to remove blocks and move
work forward. Rally's project management tools help you:

Schedule all or parts of requirements from your release backlog with
drag-and-drop iteration planning.

Understand all the priorities, work and commitments for the iteration.

Real-time dashboards let you drill down into stories and see progress on
their associated tasks, tests or defects.

More time coding; less time managing tools

Rally’s user-customizable dashboards allow users to tune their view to
focus on the information they need to be productive team members.
Developers and testers have a light weight environment that
significantly increases their time spent coding and testing, rather than
managing tools and reporting status. Rally's project management tools
help you:

Customize your personal dashboard to monitor progress, receive alerts
and view reports.

Quickly navigate between multiple projects and products.

Easily update requirements, tasks, defects, and notifications from a
single dashboard.

Receive notifications and collaborate with team members via Rally, email
and RSS.

Instantly communicate handoffs, blocks and readiness to synchronize
distributed teams.
