Planview® today announced it has ranked highest for both the Single Lean/Kanban Team and Scaled Agile Framework® (SAFe) Use Cases in the Gartner “Critical Capabilities for Enterprise Agile Planning Tools*” report. The research assessed 16 enterprise Agile planning tool offerings across six use cases. In addition to receiving the highest score in the Single Lean/Kanban Team and SAFe Use Cases, Planview received the second highest scores in the Distributed Agile and the Project and Program Portfolio Use Cases.
“The key to success in any Agile transformation is leveraging solutions that empower your teams at every stage of the journey,” said Patrick Tickle, Planview Chief Product Officer. “We’re pleased to be recognized by Gartner for the Single Lean/Kanban Team and SAFe Use Cases. We believe these two methods are at the core of today’s transformations – scaling with SAFe and the accelerating use of Kanban to support continuous delivery and business agility.”
