Net Promoter Score Definition
Net Promoter Score (NPS) is an attempt to distill into a single value, what users of a company’s products think of it. Users are asked a single question along the lines of “How likely are you to recommend this product to a friend or coworker?”, which is the question used by the UserStories.com website. A product’s NPS is determined by subtracting the percentage of people unlikely to recommend the product (0-6) from those likely to do so (9-10). A more detailed description including examples is also available.

Product Reviews
Nealy have all features I want
Ding-Yi Chen rated it a 8 on (March 02, 2010)
Frankly speaking, the look-a-feel of Banana Scrum does not look professional. The demo project also confuse people who don't understand Spanish. However when I login the web site, I am impressed as it contains: * Satisfaction criteria for each story. * Customizable sprint name and number. * Your own domain. It has nearly every features I want, except: * Lack of Post-it view * No intuitive way to add/assign user when you are in splint planning: I know users can be added in admin, but novice user may take some time to find it. * Web site is somewhat slow. Nevertheless, Banana Scrum is one of the best free scrum sites I tested so far.
Very nice all around tracking tool
Paul Klipp rated it a 7 on (October 05, 2009)
This is one of my two favorite story-tracking tools for non-co-located teams. Nothing beats BVCs, but if you have to use an online tool, this is one to consider.
