Forecast the future with SmartView predicted Epic due dates - new feature!

Plandek’s SmartView for Epics has been upgraded to help you derive an up-to-date predicted delivery date to hit delivery deadlines.

We're thrilled to announce the launch of the new and improved SmartView for Epics, featuring predicted Epic due dates.

The problem: Larger bodies of work can easily run away from us, as scope changes and deadlines get pushed back, our desired outcomes start to look less achievable. Items often slip through the cracks and project initiatives steamroll, eating up more effort, disrupting longer term plans and causing more team frustration as pressure mounts.

The solution: SmartView uses real time intelligent analytics to enable you to track the delivery of your work across the entire toolchain. You can use SmartView at both Sprint and Epic level, depending on where you're focused, to spot any blockers and mitigate delivery risks.

SmartView for Epics can shed light on your most important initiatives, tracking your progress and using your historical data to spot potential issues as they emerge, highlighting them as insights, and enabling your team to have more time to mitigate risks so you can focus on achieving your goals. You will be better equipped to deal with issues as they arise.

The all new SmartView for Epics now includes a predicted delivery date to help you keep track of your Epics and know if you are going fast enough to hit your due date.
