SUMMARY

Zoho Sprints Simplifies Iterative, Incremental Product Development

SaaS unicorn Zoho has launched Zoho Sprints, an agile project management solution which encourages teams to work iteratively and incrementally, over short periods of time, to quickly release potentially shippable products.

The new product from Zoho follows the scrum framework and combines backlogs, agile reports, collaboration tools, and customizable scrum boards, making it ideal for software developers and other teams that follow the agile methodology.

Sridhar Vembu, CEO of Zoho on the launch, stated, “Developing new software is nothing like making trains run on time. It’s more like laying train tracks through unknown terrain, which requires one to improvise and make decisions on the fly. Agile project management formalizes that spirit of improvisation, and Zoho Sprints brings that spirit to life for all agile teams.”

Zoho Sprints which is available immediately with user-based pricing that does not tie customers to contract slabs. The free plan supports up to five users and five projects. Paid plans start at $20 for 20 users per month and can support an unlimited number of projects and features.

Zoho Sprints is also included in Zoho One, the company’s all-in-one suite of applications to run an entire business.
