Questions

Licensing questions.

Do I need Enterprise to see analytics?

For your own projects, yes. The demo project's analytics are shown in every edition, so you can see each report with realistic data before you buy.

Can CHIPS tell us why we keep missing our estimates?

Yes, in the Enterprise edition. The estimate review flags each story that ran over and lets the scrum master give it reasons from the team's own list. Past sprints can be brought in from Jira with a JQL query or from a spreadsheet. Analytics then ranks the reasons, shows what they cost and which kinds of story run over most often.

Does CHIPS send any data to you?

No. CHIPS runs entirely on your server. License keys are checked offline with a digital signature, so there is no activation server and nothing phones home.

What happens when a license expires?

Administrators see a reminder 30 days before. After the expiry date there are 14 days of grace with everything still working. After that CHIPS falls back to the Community limits. Your rooms, history and recordings are never deleted.

Who counts as a seat?

Scrum master and administrator accounts. Team members who join a room to vote, including guests, moderators and watchers, are not counted and are always free.
