This page is deprecated, it has not been updated since March of 2010, we need a new approach --Sean Murphy
With respect, I think there is a better, table-based approach. I will try to start one here:
See http://groups.google.com/group/lean-startup-circle/browse_thread/thread/96b1f28443d78b8a?hl=en
Net Promoter Score popup code: http://petewarden.typepad.com/searchbrowser/2009/08/net-promoter-score-nps-example-code.html
There seem to be other pages with lists of tools already in this wiki. Please add links to them here to make them easier to find:
Hi all, Has anyone had good luck with Agile software for product management, specifically software that would work in a lean environment? I've tried a physical scrum board in the past, but never quite got it off the ground. If so, I'd love to hear about your suggestions and experiences.
Thanks! Tracy

I recently stumbled upon http://www.agilezen.com/ but have not tried
it
I also used https://www.acunote.com/ in the past , and liked it very
much
but at the end I find (if your team is all in one place) a physical
board to be the best.

Pivotal Tracker is pretty amazing as a kanban board. Agile Zen shows
some promise as well. Neither of them are all that great at doing
product roadmapping for a huge product family, but then doing so seems
a little less than lean ;)
Cheers,

Hi, Tracy. I've tried it both ways, and I strongly encourage teams to
get a physical board working well for them before they consider moving
to software.
Here's an example board that you may find helpful:
http://www.scissor.com/resources/teamroom/
Bill Wake also has a nice gallery of team rooms and charts:
http://xp123.com/xplor/room-gallery/index.shtml
If you're absolutely dead set on using software, then I'd check out
Pivotal Tracker:
http://www.pivotaltracker.com/
It's pretty opinionated, but in this case I think that's good.
Still, consider taking another swing at using card. Appealing as
software seems, every product management tool I've tried reduces
feedback, increases communication cost, and distorts behavior in ways
that make it harder for teams to learn Agile techniques. The best teams
I coach all use physical boards.

How secure are software based product management tools? I just signed-up
to Pivotal Tracker, but would like to know if my information is safe
from prying eyes.

We used ThoughtWorks Mingle for early product planning. Particularly
good for its tree structure for Stories that you can drill down into.
Later on engineering had trouble keeping up with Mingle's overhead
therefore we switched to Pivotal Tracker. Pretty happy so far. Only
thing we miss is the birds eye view of high level product goals
though.

I'd try Agile Bench (warning: I'm the founder and increadbily biased,
but it really is pretty good - promise!).
http://agilebench.com/home2 - we are cloaked at the moment, but this
will get you past the initial holding screen.
We do all the normal stuff like:
* iteration burndown and project velocity charts
* managing stories, iterations, projects and backlogs
* multi user
* backlog.
You can use it free for 3 people and 200 stories, which should be
enough to see if you like it.
But we are focusing on information that will make your project succeed
rather than adding more and more fields.
We opening up the kimono later this week but I think it is good enough
for you guys to play with, being start up type people :)

This page is a disaster and should be reworked.

@teisenmann's post listing Free Software for Managing a Lean Startup should definitely be mentioned http://platformsandnetworks.blogspot.com/2010/01/free-software-for-managing-lean-startup.html
