It's funny that "Individuals and interactions over processes and tools" is the first of the tenets of agile and the most ignored. I think most people's frustrations with agile are from people worrying too much about processes and tools.

    Scrum/Agile has 2 advantages over waterfall.

    • things that don't work get stopped early, without stigma.

    • the team works together towards an overall goal, it is not individuals working on individual tasks.

    The "agile" tools themselves rarely encourage either of these practices.

    Jira

    • assigns tasks to individuals.
    • treats closed and cancelled differently.
