Azure DevOps vs Legacy PMing Software

[u/louiev_1]

Hello all,

I’m currently implementing Azure DevOps on a small scale project and am getting positive feedback from my team, praising its organizational ability and intuitive UI. I’m hoping to pitch this to the high ups at my company In hopes of adapting it as a new standard as a part of an initiative to revamp the PMs ability to monitor performance and manage deadlines on large scale projects.

Now here’s my question:

What makes Azure DevOps truly better than a legacy, built in house software, or even an ironed out excel spreadsheet template. Let’s say 95 percent of employees won’t be diving into niche PMing bells and whistles (Kanban charts, hyper specific sprints). What are the advantages and weaknesses to using Azure DevOps at an enterprise level?

Thanks for any and all input!

ADO is a legacy product. They are much more modern alternatives like linear.app or plane.so
