Project Management Software for SaaS Companies in Paris

From one team to several squads

At ten people, a SaaS product team can run on one board and one weekly meeting. At thirty, it usually splits: a squad for onboarding, one for billing, one for the platform. Each gets an engineering manager, each plans its own sprints, and the founders lose the simple view they had when everyone sat at one table.

The split also creates new questions. Which squad owns a customer's bug report? Who decides when two squads need the same developer? How does the CEO know whether the big release this quarter is on track without attending five sprint reviews?

In ShipSprint, each squad gets its own project and board, with per-column WIP limits and its own sprint rhythm. Requests from support, sales and customers still arrive in one shared triage inbox, where product decides which squad takes each one. Ownership becomes a recorded decision instead of an argument in a channel.

The view from the leadership team

On Business, the owner command center shows every squad in one place, and a Monday digest arrives assembled. Delivery forecasts are recalculated from each squad's measured velocity as sprints close, so each squad's share of a release shows a date based on evidence, and a slip appears weeks before it matters.

Scorecards and manager performance analytics on Business help with the new managers. They're built from delivered work and hours people log themselves, adjusted for approved leave, and every person can see their own. There are no screenshots, keystroke logs or activity tracking behind them.

On Team and up, the manager dashboard gives each engineering manager the same kind of view for their own squad, and capacity planning shows who is away before a sprint is committed.

Releases and the French calendar

Capacity planning on Team and up counts approved leave and public holidays. For a French SaaS company, the cluster of public holidays in May, the August summer break and Christmas to New Year are the periods that most reduce capacity. A release that needs three squads to finish together is particularly exposed in May, when each squad may lose different days, and in August, when support cover for the launch is thin. Put the holidays into each squad's plan and let the forecasts reflect them.

Using ShipSprint from Paris: four points before you start

Who you're buying from. Your supplier would be Quantuva Technologies Pvt. Ltd. in Hyderabad, India. There's no office or local entity in France; support is by email and in-app chat.

Time zones. IST is 4 hours 30 minutes ahead of Paris in winter and 3 hours 30 minutes ahead in summer. Questions sent in your morning usually get a reply the same working day, Indian time.

Billing. Billing is per seat in Indian rupees through Razorpay, and your bank converts the charge to euros. How TVA applies to a service bought from outside the EU is something to check with your accountant.

Data protection. GDPR applies to the customer data in your tickets, and enterprise customers may ask you to list your own vendors. Check the sub-processor list and the security overview against your obligations and the commitments in your customer contracts.
