Our latest update pushes our development vision even further, keeping things simple and ensuring that the right people have the right tools and the right information to make educated, strategic decisions and perform at a high level. Many of our customers are using Agile methodologies, and now TeamDynamixHE supports this dynamic approach to project management, which will help them do their jobs even better."
