As a Project Manager, your time is far too important to be wasted on mundane tasks like detailed tracking of the day-to-day activities of each of your developers. Wouldn't it be nice if you spent your time negotiating project scope and identifying and removing team impediments? Our experience has shown that consistency in card sizes and estimates allows you to perform full project planning with little effort. Additionally, it results in diagrams that accurately reflect your project's status. With this, release planning sessions take hours not days, freeing up valuable time for both you and your developers.
