Zoho Sprints review

Zoho Sprints is a full agile tracker at a lower price point than most of this list, though we could not confirm its US dollar prices from our location, so the price is pending. The free plan covers 3 users and 3 projects with unlimited work items and sprint cycles, Scrum and Kanban boards and agile reports. Starter, sold yearly for 12 to 100 users, adds epics, timesheets, an estimation planner for story points and integrations with source control tools. Elite adds client and vendor portals and custom roles, Premier adds release management, work in progress settings, sprint capacity planning and webhooks, and Enterprise adds objectives and key results, test case management and budget tracking. Zoho documents integrations with Jenkins, Azure DevOps and GitLab CI/CD. The plan ladder is long, so check which tier holds release management and test cases before committing.

Who it is for
