Simplifying complexity for the team
- Login to Hansoft via Windows (integration with Active Directory). Read more (PDF)
- Improved look and feel through a new set of icons.
- History and task assignments can be saved for deleted users.
- Delegation and limited visibility to resource groups.
- Box selection in the time line view allows you to move multiple task scheduling items in the timeline view at once instead of one by one.
- Access items not fitting on a toolbar through a quick drop down. This has been a big issue when working on lap tops or smaller screens.
- Right aligned item descriptions, when they cannot fit into the column, makes them more readable, when for example having long user story descriptions or sub project paths.
- Undo or redo is not reset when someone else is editing in the project schedule or product backlog.
Simplifying complexity for QA
- Open items, tasks or bugs in a floating activity details window. Vastly improves usability and workflows around Quality Assurance and working with multiple bugs or tasks at once.
- Redesign of how multiple comments windows works (now named “All comments”), making it more accessible and easier to find. Workflow status changes are now shown in the same window as comments, which improve the Quality Assurance process.
- The workflow now requires a new comment (since last workflow status change) instead of an existing comment. Vastly improves how the comment system adds to the bug and project workflows.
- Scrollbar for item settings in the activity details window improves usability and batch editing possibilities.
- Manage the link to task/item/bug column in an easier way through a drop down and seeing the bug or workflow status before each link.
Simplifying complexity for the Enterprise
- Prioritize items using categories (medium, high, very high etc.) instead of work priority numbering enables new work ways such as prioritizing part of the backlog (in effect having multiple backlogs in one), prioritizing via the wall view or prioritizing from My work.
- Hide completed items in the product backlog makes the backlog more manageable.
- See Item status on task scheduling items (Not done or Completed) in the product backlog so it is easier to grasp overall state of the project, when using both scheduling and agile backlog items in the same backlog.
- Multiselect users and add to resource groups and projects.
- Enterprise license management enables user accounts to be shared across geographical locations, servers and databases. Read more (PDF)
- Performance enhancement:
- Up to 50% less Windows resources (USER objects) used
- Up to 50% less time to login after starting Hansoft
- Up to 99% reduction in time to select a new item, task or bug makes the user interface feel more responsive
