Hi Artem,

Why were they not successful?

Kanban can work great, Scrum as well.

I worked at a company where they used Kanban and it did not work. Reason was that they were just using Kanban boards and not limiting WIP to optimize flow. So there were 30 tickets with status test and more tickets just kept getting added there.

I introduced Scrum there and it improved the whole situation. They were now able to plan and deliver more predictable

So it had nothing to do with Kanban but once again with people.

Thanks for the response!

Kind regards,

Maarten
