  • A date for the release.

Mingle captures all this information in real time. Mingle also allows Product and Project Management to take requirements (or user stories) from the product backlog and allocate them to a sprint.

Velocity

Velocity is used to track the amount of work the team can deliver in a sprint. Mingle generates metrics in real time and allows the team to track its progress, thus making Mingle an ideal scrum project management software.

Real-time views can be shared with stakeholders of the scrum project. This allows everyone on the team, including management, to not only track progress but also gain visibility into impediments that can be removed before they become blockers for the team.

Mingle supports other flavors of Agile such as Extreme Planning and Hybrid as well.
