   Easy agile, made for teams

   The UI is so clean, it makes it desirable to use. Reporting is very easy to understand - without any of the complexity that comes with creating reports (like in Jira). I like that it has an opinion - it’s built around agile’s best practices. Easy to reprioritize in between sprints, and the sprint board is easy to understand so it’s great for first time agile teams.

   🏁 Competitors: Jira, Asana, Trello, Wrike, monday.com

   👍 Pros:    Sprint focused|Easy to use|Information is easily accessible|Easy integration|Unlimited users|No sign up cost|Great customer support|Automation and custom functions|Slack integration

   👎 Cons:    No mobile app atm|Occasional bugs

   More time doing stuff that actually matters

   My team has always worked adhoc on everything without properly using a project management tool. Once we adapted our workflow to Tara, it worked wonders for our organization. Tasks are easily grouped under umbrellas (Requirements, i.e. Epics in Jira) and everything is so visual that it's never painful to actually manage your tasks. Sprints make it easy to see what you need to get done this week, and we run daily standups using that view.

   Highly recommend Tara to smaller teams that just need to focus on getting stuff done.

   👍 Pros:    User friendly interface|Great set of functions

• I was going to quit and my coworker just put in her two weeks

  Great advice overall, but I would centralize this list in an app dashboard, e.g., Tara.ai, Azure DevOps, Jira, etc., and automate the outbound updates to the C-suite douche patrol. Source: about 2 years ago

• Training Juniors Remotely Is Possible. Here's How.

  Tools like Gather Town to encourage more ad hoc group interaction. One team I led used this tool daily for nearly a year, and the frequency and quality of our interactions were on par with an in-person office. - Source: dev.to / 8 months ago

• Simple but customizable alternatives to VR meetings

  Well, after some more googling I found a good candidate: gather.town if anyone is interested. Source: 11 months ago

• Do people miss informal chats with coworkers when wfh?

  I'm really digging gather.town for this. Our team has it set up & the ad-hoc "meetings" have gone up tremendously. You can choose to engage or not but it seems to be way more informal than slack for a quick sync, which is a gigantic strength imo. Source: about 1 year ago

• Do you agree ? I don't but this company also asked new joiners if they'd join at half of what they were offered. I don't know if they are feeling the heat or are we wrong about remote being best model for IT jobs.

  As mentioned above by @yowzas648 you should check out https://gather.town We started using it this week with my team and it is game changing, it does exactly what you just described. Source: about 1 year ago
