  • +It is particularly useful for maintenance teams, support operations, or projects with unpredictable workloads, as it reduces cycle times and improves responsiveness to changes
  • +Related to: agile-methodology, scrum

Cons

  • -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case

The Verdict

Use Waterfall Model if: You want g and can live with specific tradeoffs depend on your use case.

Use Kanban if: You prioritize it is particularly useful for maintenance teams, support operations, or projects with unpredictable workloads, as it reduces cycle times and improves responsiveness to changes over what Waterfall Model offers.
