Summary

Software is eating the world, and Agile development is fueling it. Since 2013, twice as many companies are using Agile techniques to create more value for their business, faster. Our Q2 2015 Global Agile Software Application Development Online Survey shows that a third of firms have been practicing Agile for more than five years, and 54% have successfully scaled their Agile practices to more than half their teams. We call these firms Agile experts, and they have lessons for everybody. Application development and delivery (AD&D) professionals should read this report to learn which Agile practices these experts teams are using and how they mix methodologies, organize, and measure their progress.
