Personally I’ve found that maintaining your own version of tech radar (inspired by Thought Works) to be super helpful.

It gives you an opportunity to have a backlog of tools and evaluate them in your own way.

Some of them could work for you and some might not. So having your own version of tech tool evaluation process for your team helps a lot.

For reference I’m adding a link to ThoughtWorks’ tech radar here.
