Alpha Tasks & Agile
Agile project management with sprints, epics, features, and a Kanban board for tracking work across your team
Tasks & Agile Module
The Tasks & Agile module provides a full agile project management toolkit. Organize work into epics and features, plan sprints, track progress on a Kanban board, and measure team velocity with built-in analytics.
Work Item Hierarchy
Work is organized in a top-down hierarchy. Epics represent large initiatives, features break them into deliverable chunks, and tasks are the individual units of work.
