TeamPlain Web Access for Team System

Today we have installed TeamPlain on our Team Foundation Server. The version we installed is the 2.0 RC.

The only scary moment when installing it on the Team Foundation Server is when you host it in IIS next to the other Sites (Sharepoint , TFS Server, Default WebSite) and hope that IIS is mapping the port correctly.

The tool works great and it is faster then we expected once the firewall port is opened ;)

The only drawback we found till now is the licensing. Although Microsoft claims it is included with the Team Foundation Server licence you actually should have a TFS CAL to access the site. The main reason why we want to use the TFS Web client is not to buy TFS client access licenses for the not developers. So it is going to be interesting to see if MS creates a new type of licenses for web access?

Installing TeamPlain was a breeze! Our team was a bit nervous about the IIS configuration, but everything went smoothly. The performance exceeded our expectations, and we're seeing improved productivity. The only downside is the licensing issue; it's a bit frustrating to need TFS CALs for non-developers. We hope Microsoft addresses this soon. Overall, a great tool

TeamPlain has been a game-changer for our team. The setup was straightforward, and the performance is impressive. However, the licensing model is a bit restrictive. We don’t want to buy additional TFS CALs for non-developers just to access the web client. If Microsoft can sort out this licensing issue, it would be perfect.

We recently installed TeamPlain, and I must say, it’s a fantastic addition to our Team Foundation Server. The installation process was smooth, and it runs faster than we expected. The only hiccup is the licensing requirement for TFS CALs for web access, which is not ideal. We hope Microsoft reconsiders this approach.

TeamPlain has significantly improved our workflow. The installation was easy, and the performance is top-notch. However, the requirement for TFS CALs for web access is a major drawback for us. We need a more flexible licensing model from Microsoft to make the most of this tool.

Setting up TeamPlain was quick and painless. It’s performing exceptionally well and has streamlined our processes. The licensing issue is a bit of a letdown, though. We’re not keen on buying extra TFS CALs for non-developers. Microsoft needs to address this to make it more accessible.

TeamPlain has been a wonderful addition to our toolkit. The setup was seamless, and it works faster than we anticipated. The licensing requirement for TFS CALs is a significant downside, though. We’re hoping for a new licensing model from Microsoft that better suits our needs.
