The more information you can collect, the better. Raw data is not enough. That’s why we focus on better data visualization in the Reports module. It will soon be capable of presenting crucial information such as cross-team dependencies, predictability reports, velocity charts, work progress reports, or team availability reports, to name just a few. This is just a beginning, as we aim to expand the range of report widgets successively.
The Overview module will also be adapted for greater flexibility. We plan to achieve this by introducing configurable Column Views. You will soon be able to create a customized Column View by removing unnecessary columns and selecting such that you need to switch between at any time easily. Column Views will also be branded by newly implemented metrics.
Furthermore, we aim to expand financial monitoring. We plan to add new columns on Overview: Budget, Actual cost, and Estimated cost. The latter two indicators could be either set manually or calculated automatically – based on the costs of tasks in the scope. The next planned feature to implement is that users will have the possibility to calculate the estimated task and actual costs based on the cost rates of resources needed to perform it.
We intend to focus more on Objectives & Key Results (OKRs). Users will soon be able to align the objectives with scheduled works to drive execution. Furthermore, key results of the objectives could be tracked and measured. The former allows breaking the biggest, most ambitious goals into smaller, more manageable, and transparent elements. The latter will improve the control over the execution with the help of generated, up-to-date charts.
