45 Rally Software Testimonials

"It has been a terrific experience, partnering one-on one with a Rally Engineer for 48hours, staying up late until 3am, in order to learn the SDK and see all those people pair programming and getting into routines that we do not have...I recommend people attend the hackathon, for the experience."

"Make sure you get education, make sure you get people to attend training and get adopted into the Agile environment so that they’re ready to hit the floor running when they start."

"Rally really goes beyond a planning tool and acts as a solution where we can measure how effectively we are executing. As a result of Agile and Rally, the quality of our software has increased dramatically, specifically because we can detail test cases for each user story and constantly track our progress. Rally gives us a solution that allows us to set up our business strategy and effectively execute on that strategy."

"Having a trainer onsite helped to get everybody on the same page, able to ask questions. You know, everybody’s always a little resistant to change, so the opportunity to ask questions on why you do it this way, why do you estimate in story points instead of hours, etc., was a real benefit. It helped us just get over those initial humps."

"We want traceability throughout our entire process. By making Rally a standard across all teams, we can move things quickly into production and ultimately make better business decisions for our customers."

"Rally has had a powerful and positive influence on HomeAway. I believe in what Rally does and will continue to recommend them strongly to organizations searching for an Agile solution."

"Overall productivity has improved by 20 since we have adopted Rally s tools. But what is more significant is that we have a much better idea of the executive sponsor s vision on our development projects."

"Rally allows us to remove hurdles in a complex software and hardware development environment. Our teams can do real work, and others can see that progress and make decisions that are fact-based."

"It was important to me to have a tool that enables the processes to be dictated by what’s right for the business, rather than the tool forcing the organization to comply with certain processes. Rally definitely gives us that flexibility."

“Rally has provided our organisation with complete transparency into our development progress. This visibility has significantly enhanced collaboration, both within development and with teams outside of development. For example, our sales team knows exactly what we are doing and feels comfortable committing to a specific date for a given set of features or functionality with their customers and prospects. Rally is not just viewed as a tool, but it has become an integrated part of how we work.”

“I believe we’re 25 to 50% more productive as compared to teams using traditional waterfall methodology. In my career, I’ve seen and managed a lot of software being built, and this is the most effective and efficient way I’ve ever done it.”

"And we have Rally by our side, a key colleague in Agile to stay in tune with industry trends and up-to-date knowledge. Rally brought knowledge and expertise from both the practice and platform perspectives."

"We save time because we are better managed, and we save money because we have tighter releases with higher quality. We also know more than we ever did about releases when we put them out."

"Rally is a full web application that is very economical. It let us start small and scaled up easily without needing a lot of professional services. Within a month the first team was using 80 of Rally’s available functionality and we have been able to quickly repeat our implementation with other teams."

"Telstra has integrated Rally with automated deployment tools to complete their entire ALM cycle. If the code isn t attached to a story and a feature in Rally, it s simply not deploying... And Rally is particularly valuable in capturing the velocity of the entire Release Train, in real time."
