Features of Pacely

Intuitive Organization System

Pacely employs an innovative stacks system that allows developers to break down their backlog into smaller, prioritized clusters of stories. This feature eliminates the hassle of sifting through long lists, enabling users to quickly identify their highest priorities at a glance.

Prioritization of Stories

Within each stack, users can order their stories relative to one another. As stories are completed, they automatically move to the bottom of the stack, ensuring that developers can focus on the next highest priority without losing track of their progress.

Quick Story Creation

Adding new stories is a breeze with Pacely. Developers can quickly insert a new story anywhere within a stack by simply clicking between existing stories. This feature allows for rapid task entry, enabling teams to maintain momentum without interruption.

Story Breakdown

Pacely allows users to break down larger stories into smaller sub-stories effortlessly. Each sub-story inherits the parent’s ID, making it easy to track relationships and dependencies between tasks.

Flexible Sprints

With Pacely, developers can set flexible start and end dates for their sprints. The tool automatically detects unfinished stories at the end of a sprint, providing options to move them seamlessly to the next sprint or backlog, ensuring nothing falls through the cracks.

Customizable Board

The customizable board feature allows teams to tailor their workflow stages to fit their specific needs. From inception to completion, users can define how stories progress through their unique workflow.

GitHub Integration

Pacely integrates with GitHub to automatically associate branches made in repositories with their corresponding stories. This feature provides seamless tracking of commits and pull requests, enhancing collaboration between development and project management.

Slack Notifications

Stay updated with real-time notifications through Slack integration. Pacely ensures that users never miss important updates or messages, keeping everyone informed in a familiar environment.
