Rally Unveils New Solutions to Support Business Agility

BOULDER, Colo., June 10, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Rally (NYSE: RALY), a leading global provider of enterprise-class software and services to drive business agility, today unveiled three new solutions to support customers in their journey toward business agility. Created to help customers deliver value faster, measure and benchmark performance, and create adaptable portfolios, Rally's solutions help organizations align execution with business strategy.

"Organizations today are recognizing that team agility is just the first step in a larger journey towards enterprise-wide business agility. Our customers around the globe are looking not only for the most innovative technologies, but the training, thought leadership, and coaching that supports transformation across the enterprise," said Ryan Martens, founder and CTO of Rally. "The solutions we announced today combine the right software and services to help customers improve performance and enhance business agility -- unlocking resources to invest in growth, respond to disruptions and deliver value faster."

For customers whose business challenges can't be solved with software alone, Rally offers expert coaching services, support, and training. This unique combination of the right software and comprehensive services forms the foundation for Rally solutions to succeed in complex companies where a tool or coaching alone might fail. Solutions announced today include:

Rally Program Launch solution
The Rally® Program Launch solution provides the software, coaching and training services customers need to launch scaled Agile programs -- and deliver the right products and features to market with speed and predictability. Leveraging a phased, Ready-Sync-Go approach, the solution helps companies of all sizes and maturity levels scale Agile practices, transforming their development organizations for responsive and sustained value delivery. Using Rally Program Launch, customers can achieve 2-4x faster time-to-market and gain millions of dollars in new revenue, with results in as little as three months.

Rally Program Launch is generally available. For more information about this solution, visit: http://www.rallydev.com/program-launch.

Rally Portfolio Scenario Planning solution
The Rally Portfolio Scenario Planning solution combines software with industry-leading portfolio coaching to empower strategic planners to rapidly create realistic and adaptable action plans from their business strategy. When Agile teams deliver products incrementally, the business gains new opportunities to respond to ever-changing market needs. Rally Portfolio Scenario Planning provides a safe "sandbox" for portfolio, product, and engineering leaders to create resource allocation scenarios without impacting teams' productivity. Following modern principles of capacity planning, users can optimize the value of their near-term delivery plans and inform their hiring plans. With this solution, portfolio managers can safely review real options for turning business strategy into action before committing to an execution plan.

This solution is available in beta to qualifying customers. For more information, visit http://www.rallydev.com/community/business-agility-0.

Rally Insights™ solution
The Rally Insights solution combines the benchmarking data and analytics from Rally Insights software with Rally's world-class services, which include transformation consulting, coaching, and training. The Rally Insights solution offers a quantifiable means for continuous improvement in software development paired with experts in Agile transformation so that businesses can inspect, learn from, and adapt performance to deliver value faster and better respond to market challenges. Rally is the only company with the multi-tenant architecture, historical data, metrics framework, and coaching expertise necessary to help companies measure, evaluate, benchmark, and enhance their Agile performance.

The Rally Insights software is in beta, currently accessible by all Rally customers, with general availability expected later this year. For more information about this solution, visit http://www.rallydev.com/insights.

"The solutions we're announcing today aim to help companies get the most out of their Agile initiatives, from their first steps in an Agile journey to full program management to analysis and reporting—all based on what has worked for some of the most successful and respected companies around the world," said Brad Norris, Rally's vice president of solutions marketing. "Rally is a true partner to our customers, and that commitment is alive and well in the way we designed each of these solutions. Each one includes not just technology and tools, but counsel, thought leadership, and hands-on support from a company with unparalleled industry expertise and focus on customer success."

Rally is exhibiting its new solutions at this week's RallyON!™ 2014 conference in Washington, D.C.
