Uppsala, Sweden, January 19, 2012 – Hansoft, the leading vendor of tools for defect tracking, agile and lean development, has successfully launched Hansoft 6.7, including a readymade integration with JIRA.

Hansoft 6.7 bridges tools and methodologies with improved features and SDK capabilities. One of the most significant new features is a full, readymade integration with JIRA, which allows entire organizations to work together in real time despite using different tools.

”Hansoft is already known for its ability to manage different methodologies in parallel, a functionality we have further improved in this release. We have also included a readymade integration with JIRA allowing teams to migrate to Hansoft without data loss, a common request since many of our customers have used JIRA before Hansoft. The integration can also be used to run the tools synced side by side: then it doesn’t matter if a developer updates a bug, task, feature or requirement in Hansoft or JIRA ,” said Hans Andersson, Chief Development Officer at Hansoft.

Hansoft 6.7 also contains a number of usability improvements and enhanced support for mixed methodologies, like critical path functionality and upgraded cross method metrics.
