Tasktop recognized for aligning business strategy and software delivery at large enterprises to accelerate digital transformation
Tasktop, a pioneer in value stream management and provider of the leading value stream management platform, announced that GigaOm Research has once again positioned the company as a leader in its 2022 GigaOm Radar for Value Stream Management. According to the report, “Tasktop focuses directly on driving software development performance improvements at the enterprise level.”
Tasktop was the only vendor to receive the highest scores possible for its ability to serve business leadership, technical leadership, and engineering management at large enterprises, where value stream management helps align technical delivery directly to business strategy, identify dependencies across teams, and ensure teams can deliver efficiently.
“Being named a leader in the 2022 GigaOm Radar Report for Value Stream Management validates what our customers already know: value stream management has never been more important in connecting business and technology. Our VSM platform helps align the daily work of large-scale software delivery organizations with strategic business goals around growth and profitability,” said Neelan Choksi, Tasktop’s president and COO. “Tasktop offers enterprises the visibility they need to accelerate time to market, make data-led investment decisions, and increase efficiency in the software delivery lifecycle.”

Tasktop’s Radar rankings achieved the highest scores possible in six categories:
- Overall ROI/TCO: “For organizations with thousands of developers and a great deal of inefficiency to deal with, costs will be well below the level of benefits that can be achieved.”
- Business-level insights: “Tasktop Viz targets driving performance improvements, for example, offering a predictability score that is related to the ability to plan and prioritize.”
- End-to-end value-based management: “Tasktop Viz is fundamentally a dashboard-oriented tool; it enables organizations to pull data together from other tools and gain an overview of what is going on across the process.”
- Insight-driven value focus: “Tasktop recognizes the time frequently wasted in “ideation” and associated approval processes and looks to address this delay so resources can be released for creation, release, and improvement of features.”
- Scalability: “Tasktop’s on-ramp is straightforward: visibility into common data types can be achieved quickly.”
- Solution ecosystem: “Even Tasktop’s entry-level packages include training, coaching, and assessment services.”
