How to decide Between Agile and Waterfall

1. When your project has strict regulatory requirements and many initial product requirements Waterfall
2. If your project has few initial requirements and doesn't need to meet strict regulations Agile
3. If you're in an organization that has strict processes that you must adhere to Waterfall
4. If your organization doesn't have strict processes to follow & you can work flexibly Agile
5. When you are working on projects with budget constraints, period, and fixed scope Waterfall
6. When you are working on projects with high interdependencies and risks Waterfall
7. When you are working on projects with unclear requirements and project deliverables Agile
8. If your team is delivering an enhancement to an existing legacy product Waterfall
9. If your team is trying to build something innovative that does not exist in any form today Agile
10. When you have fixed and firm timeline Waterfall
11. If you need to get the project delivered in a short amount of time Agile
12. If the project budget is fixed and can not be increased Waterfall

The Agile Manifesto and Mindset

We are uncovering better ways of developing

software by doing it and helping others do it.
Through this work we have come to value:

Individuals and interactions over processes and tools

Working software over comprehensive documentation
Customer collaboration over contract negotiation
Responding to change over following a plan
That is, while there is value in the items on
the right, we value the items on the left more.

Traditional Teams vs Agile Teams

Traditional Teams Agile Teams

Traditional teams follows a top-down approach 01 Agile teams are self-organized and self-managed

Possible bottlenecks in the product release cycle due to Agile teams are cross-functional, interdisciplinary, and
multiple component teams 02 complete tasks without external dependencies

Organization evaluates individual performance 03 Organization evaluates team performance

There are distinct job roles, title, and importance is given Agile teams are cross-functional, and skills matter more
to hierarchy 04 than titles

Traditional teams are not of fixed size 05 Agile teams are usually small (3 to 9 persons)

When to Use Agile or Waterfall

Simple = easily knowable.

Complicated = not simple, but still knowable.
Complex = not fully knowable, but reasonably predictable.
Chaotic = neither knowable nor predictable.
