Uppsala, Sweden, April 20, 2011 – Hansoft, the leading vendor of tools for project management and defect tracking for Agile and Lean software development, has successfully released Hansoft 6.6. The new version of Hansoft contains, among other things, features for improved collaborative reporting which allows users to share reports with hyperlinks and transfer ownership of shared reports.

“Sharing reports via hyperlinks makes it easier to show reports to, for example, executives who don’t use Hansoft on a daily basis. This is yet another feature that facilitates collaboration in every part of the organization,” said Hans Andersson, Chief Development Officer at Hansoft. Hansoft 6.6 also contains a number of other new features, such as accumulative time columns to track total time spent on tasks and support for more fine-tuned estimates on defects committed to sprints.
