Agile development method has engrossed extensive communal and academic consideration as the restrictions of conventional software development techniques become apparent. A frequent observation in the software development industry is that by making use of agile project development style, projects are expected to be successful. Agile use to keep track of the constant changing development environment [1]. For a traditional software development organization, highly effective techniques are required to adopt agile methodology. Adopting agile signifies shoring more cooperative environments and organizational policies that enable self-organization and team efficiency. The ability to meet client needs, improved software quality/fewer defects, reduced time and costs and the timely delivery of quality product are tremendous advantages of using agile development [2]. For a successful implementation of agile in an organization, transformation model needs to be used in an efficient manner. While adopting agile development, numbers of organizations come across issues and challenges along with their own projects success and failure stories. In order to identify the issues related to agile development adoption and its impact over the quality of end product, we have conducted a survey. In this survey, people from 50 different organizations interviewed. Some highly occurring issues, in adopting the agile development methodology and affect of agile over the quality of the end product were identified.
