In the article, you will read useful tips for catching errors early and specific “messages” that, if you hear them in your project team, you should pay attention to.

How to do it?” by Delivery Director Tomáš Holý.

Enehano Solutions is a company that delivers comprehensive Salesforce projects aimed at transforming business, marketing or back office in companies. Our work is not much different from classic custom development, except that we operate within the framework given by the Salesforce platform from the very beginning. However, activities such as collecting customer requirements, business analysis, architecture design, development, testing or project management are very similar to the “custom development” standard.

The whole and the thailand data  details, and he should definitely know the answers to the questions:

1. Are the people on the project a group or a collection of individuals?

9. Aren’t we reinventing the wheel?

10. Do we have JIRA or another tool for recording and tracking the completion of sub-tasks? If you ask people on the project this question and their answers are not quick and clear, something is wrong. Maybe only locally, but maybe not.
