PineStem is a Project Management tool made for helping and doing things efficiently. It’s not only a project management tool, but also an analytical suggestive tool. For example, based on the previous history of employee’s performance, it suggests which employee or team is more suitable for a particular task. Having the right person for the job is half the battle won, but it can be difficult for a project manager to distinguish the capability of an individual programmer. PineStem makes it simple to determine which employee will be best suited for a given job based on their past performance. It takes various parameters into consideration including their experience and the bugs raised on the tasks that they've worked on. As more projects & tasks are logged and followed in PineStem, the analysis of individual performance gets better and the overall effort efficiency, code quality and overall reliability of an individual is identified with ease. Monitor sprint performance to estimate project overshoot: Sprints are the backbone of agile methodology. Being on top of the sprint's daily progress is paramount in order for a project to succeed. PineStem will track your sprint progress, it'll inform you of the work left and whether you are meeting your daily targets taking into consideration the remaining tasks and bugs. Learnings from the past are utilized to analyze the sprint performance and indicate possible overshoot of the sprint. This will help the manager take remedial action to bring the project back on track.

Recording bugs with adequate details, tracking their status, fixing and regression are all integral part of this component. PineStem comes with a fully integrated Bug Tracking module that is well connected to the tasks in a project. The association of bugs to a task also helps in identifying how many bugs are created by a programmer for each task worked.
