ScrumWorks Pro is a multi-user system to help teams manage Scrum projects. There are two ways to reach the data stored on a ScrumWorks Pro server: a full-featured GUI application program (the ScrumWorks Pro Desktop Client) and a simpler ScrumWorks Pro Web Client (browser-based). The Desktop Client allows complete manipulation of all ScrumWorks Pro data. The Web Client provides convenient team-oriented task list when the full power of the Desktop Client isn't needed.
ScrumWorks Pro users are created and modified by the Administrator user. ScrumWorks Pro users can log into both the Desktop Client and Web Client.


Each product in ScrumWorks Pro has its own product window which has a two-column paradigm. On the right is your product backlog, divided in releases (or milestones). Priorization happens using drag-and-drop, where high priority work is moved to the top of list, while low priority work is moved down. The context menus (right click) reveal most functionality. The product window can be customized using a flexible docking framework to suit user needs.
The left pane represents sprints (typically 2 to 4 week iterations) in chronological order organized into tabs by team. Adding work to sprints is easily accomplished by dragging it from the right pane to the target sprint.
The tabs on the left pane display the teams that are working on the open product. Each team's sprints show up in separate tabs.

The Web Client gives team members fast, easy access to sprint-oriented information. Using a web-based Taskboard, Team Members can make quick updates to Sprint task status and hours remaining using drag-and-drop.
The Web Client is a convenience feature and is not intended as a full replacement for the Desktop Client.

ScrumWorks Pro Programs extend Scrum to large groups working in complex structures by organizing, coordinating and tracking the efforts of multiple groups toward common goals. Programs enable date and feature based goal setting across multiple products. Programs are flexible in that a single Product can participate in multiple Program milestones at once. Progress can be tracked with embedded roll-up indicators as well as cross product reporting.
