AW: [ljc] Challenges of Managing Virtual/ Remote Software Teams

Hi,
Managing remote software teams is very challenging and not
really productive from my experience. We have done this in my company for 6
month (Germany, UK) with the following tools:
1.
Skype and Teamviewer (for
screensharing), furthermore telephone conferencing through Talkyoo always
depending on the task.
2.
We had someone only dedicated
to managing the team (organizing jour fixes,...).
3.
We had daily, small jour
fixes (not more than 15 minutes) to update each other.
4.
We had a weekly longer jour
fixe (up to 1 hour) to discuss problems and how to further proceed.
5.
We were using Confluence,
JIRA, Greenhopper and Bitbucket (all Atlassian) to share knowledge/code/etc.
and manage sprints/kanban boards
That is what I remember so far. To say it also again, remote
teams are not as productive as if you are all in one place. Furthermore it is
more expensive (tools, travelling...) and the development process itself is
very slow (more bugs, more fixes due to miscommunication etc.).
Best
Peter
