Cycles vs Sprints

A sprint, in Scrum, is a fixed period of committed work with a backlog, a planning meeting, a review, and often points and a velocity chart. A cycle, in Dayzen’s project tools, is a named date range on a project. You can put tasks in it. Only one cycle on that project is active at a time. When it closes, unfinished tasks move forward only if another cycle is already sitting on the calendar after it.
