Hi @Daniel Brown ,
Specifically regarding managing sprints effectively, you will need to define what the effectiveness is. By tracking these metrics with your team, you can make sprint management effective by default in most situations. Simple metrics, like the Velocity Report or Sprint Report, are provided by JIRA itself.
However, when it comes to more sophisticated needs such as:
- Tracking custom JQL metrics
- Aggregating sprints into periods (months, quarters, half-years, or years), visualizing, and drilling down the data (e.g., from years to sprints)
- Viewing multiple boards/teams on a single screen
- Conducting in-place retrospectives
- Comparing metrics between teams or periods
- Identifying, quantifying, and prioritizing reasons behind mediocre performance, and easily justifying budget allocation for improvements
- Viewing Dynamics between the current and previous periods
- Viewing % of a metric relative to Initial or Final Scope. Average of metrics for the selected periods
- Viewing average of metrics for the selected periods.
-
Generating retro reports for SAFe, LeSS, SoS, etc. teams to:
- Compare groups of teams, e.g., Team 1 and Team 5 as one entity versus Team 3 and Team 4 as another.
- Compare periods, e.g., 2024 vs 2023 for Team 1 and Team 5 combined.
you will have to find a 3rd-party app. The functions I described above are completely covered by the app I developed - Multi-team Scrum Metrics & Retrospective.
