Finally! A tool to lead your team and manage your projects from start to finish. Use your preferred project management methodology—Agile, traditional, scrum, or KanBan. Sync project data with Team Foundation Server (TFS). Capture sprint planning votes from team members' Android, Apple and Windows devices over WiFi.
The dynamic home page dashboard displays key project metrics—view progress and edit project details from here.
Build your Backlog. Create stories and add their individual tasks, estimating the original story point value for each. ScrumMaster sorts them into sprints at your defined Target Velocity.
Using scrum? Select the stories and tasks you want to vote on. Track meeting time and who attended.
Vote on each task—votes from team members using NextWave’s Agile Story Sizing Cards automatically display, tally, and average. Click to add any votes from team members using an Agile card deck. Discuss and save the vote.
Using KanBan on its own or with scrum? Tasks automatically populate the KanBan board. Completed tasks log automatically to calculate velocity achieved.
Graphs let you see when your project should finish. Have concerns about future work? Change key variables to see the impact on the finish date. Adjust the target velocity. Factor in your confidence for the team to meet the velocity or in the stability of the backlog estimate.
Simplify reporting and communications. ScrumMaster standard reports summarize key project information and track progress.
Create and manage an unlimited number of projects. Create your own customized project templates for quicker new project set-up.

No matter which project management approach rocks in your world, Agile or the more traditional PMBOK®-based methodologies, ScrumMaster takes planning, implementation, and project management to new levels.

ScrumMaster and NextWave’s Agile Story Sizing Cards™ companion applications for your team members replace spreadsheets, sticky notes, and card decks. WiFi connects the apps for voting during Sprint Planning meetings.

Initial project setup is simple and flexible. Create multiple projects—even create your own project templates. Add project and team details that are important to you.

The Team Foundation Server (TFS) upgrade lets you import existing data to automatically populate a new ScrumMaster project. Then, it automatically syncs changes made in ScrumMaster back to your TFS server.

Run Sprint Planning, Daily Standup, and Retrospective meetings—ScrumMaster captures key information for each sprint—or simply use the integrated KanBan board to manage task status.

Burndown, productivity, and projection graphs simplify project analysis. Export report results to Word, Excel, or PDF formats.

So take control! Go mobile. Create better interactions with your team and put better project information at your fingertips.

Although built specifically for Agile scrum masters, each project details are unique. Use Scrum methods or only the KanBan board. Manage all kinds of projects, not just those involving software development. Create personal ‘To Do’ lists—visually track task status on the KanBan board. Introduce students to the art of project planning. Use it with the family and everyone can see which tasks are done and what’s left to do.

Intuitive and easy-to-use, download the NextWave ScrumMaster application now. Put it to work and try it for a month, for free.

  • Reduce team Sprint Planning meeting times. Team votes on tasks automatically record and average. Or, select a new consensus story point value on the spot.
  • Change your Target Velocity at any time—ScrumMaster automatically re-sorts and re-calculates the number of sprints in the Backlog to end the project.
  • Add a story or task at any time—the Backlog's sprints automatically re-calculate.
  • Use ScrumMaster's integrated KanBan board to manage tasks.
  • Use OneNote for integrated meeting documentation.
  • Tasks not addressed during Sprint Planning and Retrospective meetings are automatically re-named and returned to the Backlog.
  • Know what types of work were completed during every day of a sprint and view the trends across the project's history.
  • Allow ScrumMaster to calculate partial credit for work as it’s completed in a sprint… or not.
  • Play ‘What if…?’ With a swipe of your finger in your Burndown chart, ScrumMaster identifies best and worst case scenarios, at any point in the project life cycle:
  • See the impact of a Target Velocity change on project end date.
  • Find the minimum Target Velocity required to meet an end date.
  • Change Target Velocity or Backlog assumptions, assess impact.
  • View team cost-to-date or cost-to-finish estimates.
  • Improve your PM skillset. Track the difference between your original story point estimates, those voted by your team, and actual story points completed throughout the project’s life cycle.
  • Save heaps of time setting up new projects by creating re-usable project templates!
