Stepsize
Stepsize is designed to fit into your existing workflow, so engineers can report tech debt without sacrificing roadmap efficiency. Once you have a prioritised list of tech debt, you can start fixing it and actually increase your engineering velocity. Isn't there a risk we'll want to refactor everything even though we don't need to? Stepsize has been meticulously designed to focus on context and prioritisation so that you'll always know which debt is worth your time. You'll actually find the opposite - having a clear view of technical debt helps your team focus on impactful work and ignore the rest. How will Stepsize help us save time and money? Stepsize increases your team's velocity by allowing you to fix your most important tech debt. This means less time wasted on mishandling debt, bugs, downtime, and support requests, which results in happier customers and engineers. How can we develop this new habit of tracking technical debt? If you've been tracking issues in a spreadsheet or in a backlog, you've already been doing it. It's just an easier process as it all happens in an Engineer's editor. Plus, Stepsize displays the data you track in the right places at the right moment, so engineers will be reminded to keep tracking debt.
