Azure DevOps tells you what changed. Everview shows what it means — across boards and code.
Azure DevOps is the one connection that carries both halves of delivery: Boards for work items, sprints, and backlogs, Repos for pull requests, commits, and pipeline runs. Everview reads both, connects them on a single living execution canvas, and writes your approved changes back.
How it works
- Two-way sync. Everview reads work items, sprints, and backlogs from Boards, and pull requests, commits, and build history from Repos. Creating and editing work items, moving them between sprints, changing states, comments, links, and sprint create/complete all round-trip back to Azure DevOps. Azure DevOps stays your system of record.
- Connect in minutes. Sign in with your Microsoft work account. Everview lists the Azure DevOps organizations in your directory and creates a first team from your first project’s default team. Work items and sprints sync right away; pull requests, commits, and build history follow.
- Permissions mirrored. Everview acts as you, with your permissions — nothing more.
What Azure DevOps teams get
- Both halves on one surface — the work items and the pull requests that deliver them, connected rather than compared side by side.
- Nothing to map by hand: Everview reads the project’s process configuration — Agile, Scrum, Basic, CMMI, or a custom process — to learn its work item types and estimate field.
- Predecessor and successor links from Boards feed the critical path, so a slip shows you what it lands on.
- Ask Ever in plain language: "Which work items carried out of this sprint?" — with the evidence trail back to the exact items.
- Simulate re-plans before committing them; approved changes sync back to Azure DevOps.
Questions worth asking.
Does Everview replace Azure DevOps?
No. Azure DevOps stays your system of record — Everview syncs with it two-way and adds the layer of understanding a board and a repo can’t give on their own. Nothing migrates out, and disconnecting removes the event subscriptions Everview created and stops syncing; your Azure DevOps data itself is never touched.
What Azure DevOps permissions does the app need?
You sign in with your Microsoft work account through Microsoft Entra ID, and Everview acts as you, with your permissions — nothing more. Depending on your company’s policy, an admin may need to approve Everview the first time anyone connects; Everview shows the approval link to send them, and once they approve, everyone can connect.

Which Azure DevOps editions and accounts are supported?
Everview connects to Azure DevOps Services, the cloud product at dev.azure.com; Azure DevOps Server (on-premises) is not a connection option today. Sign-in needs a Microsoft work account — personal Microsoft accounts aren’t accepted, so an organization tied to one has to be moved into a directory first. If you use an organization as a guest of another company’s directory, connect it with “Add organizations from another directory” and sign in once more with the account that backs it.
