New release Crocus process and project management framework
16-02-2009
Bright55 released today version 1.1 of its web-based software framework for process, (agile) project management and compliancy.
Support added for agile project management
Our web-based process and project management software framework named Crocus now supports you and your SCRUM or agile projects and teams as well. Write user stories, estimate them using storypoints. Work with a feature-backlog, assign work to sprints or iterations and track and monitor the velocity of your teams.

Portfolio management reporting refined
Projects or process instances can now be grouped together to form a project group or portfolio. The portfolio status-reports have been refined. View the report online in your browser or generate a Microsoft Word or PDF status-report.

Run and monitor process/workflow instances
Next to designing and describing your business processes using Crocus Designer and publishing them to the web using Crocus Online! or generating a process report using our reporting engine, you can now also instantiate processes/workflows, execute them and monitor all running process instances.
Further improvements
We fixed most of the suggested improvements and reported bugs. Documentation and user manuals have been updated. New screencasts are available.
