Hansoft successfully implemented by Blue Fang

Hansoft, the leading vendor of tools for project management and QA in the game development industry, today announced that award winning game developer Blue Fang has successfully adopted the Hansoft production management solution.

“Blue Fang has tried many project management tools over the past ten years, ranging from industry standards to homegrown systems. Each had their strengths and weaknesses but only Hansoft has brought it all together in a single package that is useful for both our developers and producers. The ability to work with agile and traditional methods makes Hansoft the most attractive option for the way we develop games,” said Blue Fang producer Fred Galpern.

Hansoft is used by development teams in 20 countries for collaborative scheduling, task tracking, instant communication, Agile, QA / bug tracking, resource usage, portfolio and document management.

“Blue Fang is well known for its high quality games and we are excited to provide them with a tool that will help them increase studio productivity and maintain the inspirational environment that makes the team so successful. Teams using Hansoft don’t have to choose between agile and scheduling project management styles. Hansoft enables these different styles to be run side by side, within the same development project,” said Hansoft CEO Patric Palm.
