People tell me it's great, and that they love using it. Some who I don't even know to be software developers, though that is rare. Nonetheless, regardless of who is talking about it, they never seem to talk about using Agile methods and how it actually benefited them or their project. While I don't disagree with the values of Agile, that is "Individuals and their interaction, delivering working software, customer collaboration, responding to change"(source), a group of inexperienced developers who are just being introduced to Agile may, for one, not be able to tell what these benefits are compared to not using Agile methods. This lack of compelling motivation cause against what Agile is about; it requires self-motivated members to really see the biggest impact, in my opinion. However, as a framework it is still a good learning environment where tasks are broken down and focus can be established.
