Analyze resources

Map out what it will take to achieve your plan. Understand capacity at the individual and team levels, accurately estimate engineering effort, and visualize workloads — so you can set realistic delivery dates. You can even create alternative scenarios to compare different versions of your plan.

Initiatives capacity report with team details in Aha! Roadmaps

Rightsize your roadmap

Start by adding details about each team. (Or link directly to teams in Aha! Develop.) Then, enter an initial estimate of what it will take to deliver new functionality. Use the capacity report to identify resource constraints early. Adjust the timing and scope to deliver a roadmap the whole team believes in.
