It's very visual so it's pretty easy to see where a task is in the swim lanes. I've had minimal training and have been able to maneuver to do basic things like creating and editing tickets, move tasks around, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about IBM Targetprocess? The screen refresh is very inconsistent. Sometimes the screen will update right after I save changes and other times it won't, sometimes even after I do both a screen refresh (via TP provided refresh button) and browser refresh. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering IBM Targetprocess: I would recommend using TP because the user interface is pretty intuitive and very visual. If you're a key command person, you can do that. But if you prefer to do everything with the mouse/trackpad, this tool is great for that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is IBM Targetprocess solving and how is that benefiting you? We are using TP for our bug and user story tracking to help keep the company on the same page and going in the right direction. We are using it in an Agile workflow so it's a key part of all of our meetings, from daily sprint standups to backlog grooming and sprint planning. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

AZ Ahmad Z. Senior Consultant Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 3/15/2017 "Fun to use, easy to maintain" 4/5 What do you like best about IBM Targetprocess? High visibility of tasks. We can easily see which task is assigned to which person at a glance using the profile pictures, which I like the most. Easily customizable to set WIP and the rules around it. Overall, it has definitely contributed towards increasing our day-to-day productivity and has increased the level of transparency. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about IBM Targetprocess? The dragging of tasks across boards is still quite buggy and lags even on the best configuration machines. This should be fixed on priority. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering IBM Targetprocess: Though you can definitely try out other free, but please at least once give a chance to Targetprocess. I am sure you will love it and ultimately make it your daily driver. The only thing which I would like to advise is to see whether you can easily handle the reporting module of the application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is IBM Targetprocess solving and how is that benefiting you? We are using this product as a Kanban board for our project.

TP makes it easy to associate work with major feature objectives and then track the work's development progress. TP also integrates with a host of other work/code management platforms that makes it easy to use as a central place for work requests. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about IBM Targetprocess? The custom reporting elements of TP are clunky and seem more like an after thought then a fully realized feature. There are very basic reporting functions such as average time in state, etc. that you cannot do. It definitely a miss given that the platform specializes in work management. The notification elements of TP are also clunky - either you get too many notifications (notified about everything) or none at all. It can make it frustrating to quickly track updates on your own work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering IBM Targetprocess: If you need to do complex reporting, I would advise integrating Target process with another platform that specializes in that. Otherwise Target process is great for work tracking purposes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is IBM Targetprocess solving and how is that benefiting you? We use TP to run our SCRUM sprints. It definitely helps us stay organized, plan for future sprints, and keep track of the progression of current sprints. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Software Project Manager Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 4/11/2017 "Targetprocess is our go to tool for planning all our daily tasks." 4/5 What do you like best about IBM Targetprocess? We love having the ability to utilize a kanban process for all our support tasks and having the scrum process for our software release planning. It gives us so much flexibility to set up our own processes without being tied to one someone else suggests we need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about IBM Targetprocess? Having so much flexibility with processes/view/card design it can quickly become overwhelming. We also find it hard to find tasks and views. We find it hard to keep things organized at a high level. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering IBM Targetprocess: Take the time to go through the user guides which are very helpful in getting set up and started. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Software Engineer Telecommunications Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 3/15/2017 "Targetprocess is very flexible and accommodates our unique work flow very well." 4.5/5 What do you like best about IBM Targetprocess? I really enjoy that Targetprocess allows what I call 'inception style organization' and the entities can have many relations. You can have a project which holds epics which is made of features that are made up of stories broken apart by tasks, it's great. I also really enjoy that you can paste images easily into the inline editor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about IBM Targetprocess? The only reason it doesn't get a 10 out of 10 rating is that once in a blue moon it is slow to load up and navigate. Takes a couple seconds to load maybe? Not thing biggest problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is IBM Targetprocess solving and how is that benefiting you? We use target process to manage a team of about 9 developers. It is great for keeping track of all things related to the development process and allowing product managers to have insight into the dev work without stepping on our toes.
