Tasktop for Microsoft 

Microsoft Team Foundation Server (TFS) provides work item tracking, source control and Agile project management for the software delivery lifecycle. When combined with Tasktop Sync, TFS provides an ALM backbone for both Visual Studio and Heterogeneous development projects. Tasktop Sync synchronizes all artifacts to TFS, even including those not created or owned by TFS. This enables TFS to provide cross-project tool reporting and process governance across a complex and fragmented tools stack. By integrated third party tools with TFS, organizations increase project visibility, collaboration and control which results in improved productivity, quality and ultimately shorter development cycles.
