Data analysis and visualization techniques for project tracking: Experiences with the ITLingo-Cloud Platform

Considering the market's competitiveness and the complexity of organizations and projects, analyzing data is crucial to decision support on software development and project management processes. These practices are essential to increase performance, reduce costs and risks of failure, and guarantee the quality of results, keeping the work organized and controlled. ITLingo-Cloud is a multi-organization and multi-workspace collaborative platform to manage and analyze data that can support translating project performance knowledge into improved decision-making. This platform allows users to quickly set up their environment, manage workspaces and technical documentation, and analyze and observe statistics to aid both technical and business decisions. ITLingo-Cloud supports multiple technologies and languages, promotes data synchronization with templates and reusable libraries, as well as automation tasks, namely automatic data extraction, automatic validation, or document automation. The usability of ITLingo-Cloud was recently evaluated with two experiments and discussed with other related approaches.
