Microsoft Azure DevOps can be used for all kinds of operations in an SDLC, from managing boards and teams to automating builds and releases for the code while maintaining their versions and the GIT integration is like a cherry on the cake which makes it a complete suit for your projects.

To be honest, I'm working on the Azure DevOps portal for the last 2 years, and there is nothing you can dislike about it, this is the best tool available for DevOps which is a package of everything you can even think of while working. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is straightforward to manage projects with Azure boards, as we know what user stories are at which stage and to whom it is assigned so that we will have a clear idea about the project's progress. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

So, When we change the status of a story in the Taskboard or while in the board and also assign it to somebody. It doesn't automatically refresh for other user who is using it unless he refreshes it he can't see the changes made. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's a great software which makes it easy to explain my tasks & dependencies Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Story splitting does not work sometimes & the tasks become an orphan. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

You can build different boards, with specific access levels, also you can create test cases, which can be used by the team. The collaboration within the team increases to a complete new level when using Azure DevOps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is quite complex from a perspective of a beginner. Anyone who is new to this might need some training or some tutorials for ease of use. It'll be good if there are any open tutorials from Microsoft. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

To manage tickets and work on development of new projects and monitor and track bugs, defects, new enhancement and user story requests raised by different stakeholders Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing so far, the experience has been great so far. It helps manage the backlog pretty efficiently Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is a lot of features can be the best in their own areas. As I play a PM role in my job, the best thing of Azure DevOps to me is that it provides me full features for digital project management, from discovery to deployment. So in short, the best thing is that it has all the things a PM need in a single tool and I don't have to use separate tools/systems in finishing my job. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I guess it's the comment field text editor, not really a dislike item, but if they can enhance the feature, that will be ideal! I always have issues with copying & pasting images, it seems images can only be pasted under certain methods, and I can't drag an image directly to the editor. Apart from pasting images, the editor is actually a bit weak in terms of formatting when compared to Word. One more thing is the attachment feature. When managing a project, there is always a lot of versions of documents, say a requirement file can go from v1 to v50. If the attachment feature can have version control, that would be great.

Sometimes the UI can be a bit clumsy. The UI is not the most user-friendly. It could have better project management capabilities. Collaboration through this tool is also a bit of a challenge. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We get everything we need for a scrum in one place, like backlog, sprint, delivery plans, retrospective, wiki documentation, team calendar, planning poker, dependency tracker etc. and easily accessible with a single go and in a smooth and easy portal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In a backlog view, we can see all the stories consolidated way. I would like to have the stories split into individual iterations that are currently missing and can be a great add-on if made. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
