Just received the following email:

To our Pivotal Tracker customers,

The VMware Tanzu division is announcing the end-of-life (EOL) for the Pivotal Tracker offering, effective April 30, 2025.

Customers with active Pivotal Tracker subscriptions may continue to use the offering through April 30, 2025, after which time the offering will sunset. You can export your data any time before April 30, 2025.

It is recommended to migrate any needed data out of Pivotal Tracker on a timely basis. Please review the instructions to export data here. If you have any issue in migrating data, raise a support ticket . The VMware Tanzu division will not provide any support for migrating data beyond April 30, 2025.

Thank you, VMware Tanzu Division

We were also said when head the news. We are using it since 2010, but we wanted to build tool that feels like home to Pivotal users. you can check our progress litetracker.app (don't want it to sound like an ad, as we want to build it for ourselves mostly)

That's too bad. I worked at a shop that used it from 2014-2018 and I really liked it.

Seemed to have an opinionated yet quite simple and low-friction Scrum/Agile oriented workflow. I personally liked that about it. I got the impression you could skip the story points and stuff if you just wanted a basic ticket tracker.

Oh really. We haven't used it in years but when we were small and just getting our start we used it and really liked it.

Indeed. Their sign up page is now a 404.
