How it works

Kendis makes it trouble-free for you to plan and track your PI on top of your existing Agile tool. It offers a 2-way real time sync with Jira and TFS that connects in a matter of seconds.

Setup your Program Board

Kendis offers very flexible boards for planning your PI. You can set the number of sprints and define all your teams that can be distinguished with different color badges. Furthermore, your teams’ swimlanes can be connected with Sprints in your ALM tool.

Once Kendis is integrated with your Agile Tool, you can get all of your features ready for your PI on to the program board in Kendis. You can use filters for both Jira and TFS or you can use JQL for getting features from Jira or Queries for TFS.
