Because it is administration performed for somebody else's report. Two systems to update, a timesheet on Friday, and a standup that repeats what the board already says.
The predictable outcome is that the board is accurate on Monday and fiction by Thursday.
My tasks, a status and time logged against the thing you were already working on. Subtasks, dependencies and custom statuses exist if the team wants them and stay out of the way if not.
The standup digest is generated from what actually changed, so the meeting is about the exceptions rather than a round of narration.
It is not an issue tracker for code and it does not host repositories. If your team lives in one, keep it and connect them.
And it will not remove estimation. It will make the history of your estimates visible, which is not always comfortable.
The same objects and fields the interface uses, including custom fields, from the moment they exist — no second schema to learn and no drift to debug six months later.
Webhook deliveries are logged with responses and retried, so a failed integration is visible rather than silently absent.
No. Time is logged against the task you are on; timesheets are a view of that.
Yes — same model as the interface, custom fields included, tokens scoped to your permissions.
Yes. Loop holds phases, capacity, time and margin above it.
Half an hour on your own numbers is usually enough to say whether Loop is the right place to start.
