Why Agile Teams Around the World Choose VersionOne

• Our Company - Agile with Integrity

  We pioneered the agile management tool market in 2002 - way before it was the cool thing to do. Since that time, others have jumped on the agile bandwagon. Unlike others, we have remained true to our community roots throughout the company’s history, continuing to be the single most active sponsor and contributor of agile events, conferences, associations and user groups. Our entire company is committed to agile ideals and practices, 90% of our employees - from product development to marketing and sales - are certified ScrumMasters.

• Our Customers - One Team at a Time

  More than thirty thousand agile teams in one hundred seventy countries use our software every day – from five person teams to global software organizations like Adobe, Dow Chemical, Lockheed Martin, Motorola, Novell, Sabre, Symantec, Thomson Reuters, and Wells Fargo, have selected VersionOne as their enterprise-wide agile management solution.

• Our Partners - Objective Expertise, Unparalleled Experience

  Many teams are looking for practical agile experience they can bring in to help with the transition to agile. To assist, we could have hired an army of agile consultants and changed our focus from delivering the best agile tools on the market. Instead, we partnered closely with the most respected agile trainers and consultancies in the business. We are truly honored to work closely with the industry’s premier agile consultants such as Jeff Sutherland, David Hussman, David Anderson, Sanjiv Augustine, Robin Dymond and others.

• Deployment Flexibility - Agile On-Demand or On-Site

  We are the only enterprise caliber agile management solution to offer our customers both On-Demand (SaaS) and On-Site (Local) deployment options for ANY team size and ANY agile methodology (e.g., Scrum, XP, DSDM, AgileUP, Hybrids, etc.). You can easily customize our products to match your specific agile process.

• Pricing Flexibility - Perpetual + Subscription = Prescription

  Instead of promoting or dictating a single licensing and pricing model, we prefer you tell us which model makes most sense for your business. Teams of any size can choose from either a perpetual or subscription model to help ensure alignment with internal financial and budgeting needs. In addition, there are no gotchas or hidden fees - ever.

• Ease of Use - Agile Management Made Easy

  Customers consistently tell us they prefer our simple user interface and built-in process navigation to the more cumbersome and complex UI’s of competitors. For organization-wide deployments, our user interface has proven to dramatically accelerate tool training and user adoption. Larger teams typically realize a savings of 2-5x on training and consulting fees.

Custom fields, terminology and workflows give most teams all the flexibility they will ever need.
