Overview Presentation

Jixee is an online task and communication hub for developers. It is a simple issue tracking application that simplifies a development team’s workflow. Developers usually work in teams, sometimes co-located, sometimes geographically distributed. To build great software, they need to constantly communicate and collaborate. Of course, there are many collaboration and task management tools available, but the more simplified it is, the more developers can concentrate on their real job, and that is software development.

Features, Benefits, Strengths

• Simplified, Minimalist Design ‚Äì Jixee issue tracking application is designed to be used within minutes by any development team. Combining simplicity with functionality resulted in an application that is lean and geared for productivity. Developers can focus on their work because the interface shows only the essentials: what has been planned, what is in progress, and what has been completed.
• Powerful Visual Tools and Automations ‚Äì This online task and communication application is a true central hub for anything that is going on in the development project. Users can use either a Workboard view or a Kanban view to manage tasks with drag-and-drop. They can visually manage every stage of the development cycle, even customizing it by editing the pre-set Workboards. Users can organize and divide tasks as milestones, tasks, sub-tasks, or sprints, and even create dependencies. And they can work on their preferred environment and automatically create, update and complete tasks. It also has a powerful search engine and rollup reporting tools.
• Chat Integration, Push Notification, Integrated Version Control, and more ‚Äì Jixee allows cross-platform communication with services that development teams are already using. It integrates with many popular chat clients so users can remain in communication with the rest of the team. Setting a dedicated room in whatever chat client allows the user to receive any stream activity automatically from this simple issue tracker. They can get real-time notification whether they use a web client, email, or its own OSX desktop client.
