"I really like the way you can access your work items from within Outlook. I like the way you can bring up the full work item forms, make edits, and save immediately to TFS. It was great to create new meeting requests or mail messages from the work items."

Lori Lamkin
Product Unit Manager for Team Foundation Server at Microsoft

"These types of products are important to the industry."

Joel Semeniuk
CEO and co-founder of ImagiNET Resources Corp.

"I know of a good number of companies that will love having something like this - getting their timesheet management into TFS (so it can be reported on, especially) will make life a lot easier for them."

James Manning
Software Design Engineer for Visual Studio project at Microsoft

"I like the idea of being able to link work items to e-mails and meetings. I also like that it provides non-technical information workers the option of working with TFS in a more familiar environment. Congratulations to TeamExpand on the release!"

Jason Barile
Principal Test Manager for Visual Studio Team Foundation Server at Microsoft

"TX Chrono, by TeamExpand, allows users to easily track how they are spending their time, store that information in TFS, and make it available for reporting in the warehouse."

TFS Integration Platform to Improve TFS Management

November 20th, 2009
by Olga Belokurskaya

Hi!
I’ve really almost missed it. However, it’s a great news regarding the improvements’ in TFS management and working with TFS.

It’s been quite for long that users asked for the possibility to integrate TFS with different data stores, or other version control & work item tracking systems, or helpdesks, etc. This possibility was partially represented by TFS Migration and Synchronization Toolkit, however, it was not good enough in addressing users’ needs.
Well, about a week ago the so called “alpha” release of TFS Integration Platform was announced, enriching possibilities in TFS management. There’ve been lots of changes applied to the platform, as compared to its predecessors.
Major improvements have been done to quality and robustness. Moreover, the documentation has been improved greatly to help developers better understand the platform. The steps have also been made toward better serviceability. What is more, this time the community has been involved in the project.

“Changing from “migration and synchronization” to simply “integration” was about simplifying the message about the purpose, and helping to disambiguate from upgrade scenarios which are often confused with migration. “ – Said Matt Mitrik, the project responsible.
