Capture Customer Feedback
The TeamPulse Ideas & Feedback portal extension offers a simple and cost-effective solution for capturing customer feedback in TFS projects. It can be easily exposed to external stakeholders like users, clients or other team departments and allow them to submit feedback, as well as vote and comment on it. Then your team can easily triage and manage that feedback in TeamPulse and turn it into requirements or bugs that can be pushed to TFS. Read more
Track and Report Progress
By synchronizing your TFS projects with TeamPulse you will be able to use the tools powerful real-time tracking capabilities during the full development cycle. By always having up-to-date reports on the project’s health and progress you will be able to easily spot problems and take corrective action as well as analyze historical data.
In addition TeamPulse also allows users to generate and export reports for key performance metrics like velocity, task burndowns, as well as planned versus actual reports. Read more
Visualize and Manage Your Work
TeamPulse offers a virtual task board for managing all your current tasks in a highly intuitive and visual way. Using My TaskBoard you can update, add, edit and delete tasks on the spot without having to go into TFS. With My TaskBoard you can get a clear and focused view of your progress and see what you have to work on next.
Start Working Before Having a TFS Project
TeamPulse is designed to be used throughout the whole development cycle. With TeamPulse you can start by capturing ideas and feedback from internal as well as external users in your TeamPulse project without the need to have a TFS one ready. As you start the project, you may spend the first iterations working on the production of an initial product backlog without the need to go to Team Foundation Server. As development progresses, TeamPulse can selectively synchronize TeamPulse data with Team Foundation Work Items, Areas, and Iterations. Read more
Do Kanban and Scrum
After you sync TeamPulse with TFS managing you projects using Scrum or Kanban practices is easy as one-two-three. You can plan your release and schedule iterations, groom your backlog and schedule the top items to be included the next iteration, and track progress in real time. At the same time the TeamPulse Kanban boards allow you to visualize your development process and better manage the flow of work by setting WIP limits. Read more
Set up the Integration with TFS in 60sec
Click-Click-Click-Done. This is how we refer to the new Import Project from TFS wizard.
It provides users with an unmatched syncing experience where they can import Areas and Iterations from TFS, map the TeamPulse entity types to TFS work item types, configure field mappings between TeamPulse and TFS, set the Default Values and Value Mappings.

"Telerik's TeamPulse combined with Microsoft Team Foundation Server 2012 provides us with a comprehensive project management system. We can track everything through work items as well as follow our project in a visually rich interactive environment. It's the best of both worlds. The time sheet feature is also invaluable to us to get a review of time spent on features. We can get a lot of information from TFS but with TeamPulse, we get it quicker."
