Software Lifecycle Management for Agile Teams: Rally

Rally is the first on demand subscription Web service for managing the entire Agile software development lifecycle. It seamlessly marries Agile project management with tracking of requirements, test cases and defects to give software-driven organizations the visibility and team collaboration needed to respond faster to new opportunities and changing customer demands.

With deep support for managing and coordinating rapid iterations, Rally replaces expensive and poorly integrated point tools with a highly secure, hosted Web service that starts fast and scales easily across teams, platforms and distance for low risk, low cost deployment.

	Agile Project Management for Rapid Iterations Release planning, scheduling, and tracking that supports your team's natural signaling so the entire organization gains real-time visibility into status of features and quality, priorities, roadblocks and risks.			Early Testing and Agile Defect Tracking Generate test cases directly from requirements to pull testing forward. Grouping test results and defects by requirement improves tester-developer communication and shows feature quality and readiness.
	Customer-Centric Requirements Management Organize requests, decompose features and trace dependencies for better responsiveness and alignment with customer needs. Rich-media composers make requirements easier to write, estimate, code, and test.			Highly Secure, Subscription Web Service Start fast on a world-class infrastructure that coordinates the full development lifecycle across teams, platforms and distance with no hidden costs.
Rally manages the entire software lifecycle by marrying Agile project management for rapid iterations with customer-centric requirements management, early testing and defect tracking.

Fast, low-risk adoption of change-tolerant iterative development

Rally is easy to adopt in whole or in part so it can fit the needs of differing projects and company cultures. Teams can quickly start with planning and tracking releases and iterations (Agile project management), or with managing requirements, test cases or defects - and grow into managing the entire lifecycle. As a fully-hosted Web service, your path to implementation is exceptionally short, and the Rally Jump Start training provides six hours of high-impact tool and process coaching through a convenient series of webinars to start you off right.
