Features

  • Track Issues/Bugs/Tasks. Integrated with your own Bugzilla or JIRA.
  • Collect Research Findings. Gather points from papers, Heuristic Evaluations, Ethnographies, User Testing, etc., into one location.
  • Progress Reports. Get predictions on when the project will be finished. With one click, see an agile report that shows how much work remains to be done on any particular project. The report will run a statistical regression analysis to predict when the project will finish.
  • Draw diagrams on the web. Draw any kind of Storyboards, Task Analyses, State Machines, etc. (using the open source license of mxGraph )
  • Run Web Surveys. Using Web Survey Toolbox, you can track, administer, and run surveys. Read more.
  • Analyze most frequently discovered problem areas. Coming Soon: Look at reports and graphs of your problems sorted by topic and area.

What does it do for my design team?

  • One stop for all your research findings. Keep your surveys, issues, diagrams, and the planning for how to accomplish them all in one place so you can showcase your design, how you made those decisions, and how the development is coming along all in one place.
  • *Prevent unintended side effects of a design change.*Have you ever reached into your crowded medicine cabinet or cupboard to pull out one thing, but you pulled another item out or knocked a second item over? When you make a design change without analyzing it, you risk knocking something else over without seeing it. This system ties all of your research and analyses together so that you can see how one change will affect other design lessons.
  • *Use Bugzilla or JIRA or your own other Issue Tracker for tasks and bugs.*This connects to your own issue tracker so that you don't have to switch systems. It tracks additional information about each issue, like data points and findings associated with it.
  • Interconnected data.*When you are looking at your research findings, you can track it backwards to where it came from, and track it forwards to what design tasks came out of it. *{*}Coming Soon:* When you print out a storyboard, you can also see the incomplete tasks and bugs that the developers are working on for each screen. You can track your development progress through any diagram.
  • *Connect the design to the development to the planning and progress tracking.*You can create agile reports and graphs from your data in issue trackers to see how your progress is coming along. Unlike other systems, you can use your current Bugzilla or JIRA to track your issues and see your progress relative to that data.
