Why time tracking is essential to agile software development

Agile software development is a structured and iterative approach to project management and product development. One of the easiest ways to approach agile resource planning is to implement a time tracking tool that removes the burden of tracking on developers and provides product managers and engineering leads visibility into the progress of each stage of development.

Time tracking in Jira enables a number of different functions including automating invoicing and payment process for contractors or customers and providing visibility into resource allocation across teams, while removing the burden from your customer.
