My current team does not do standups (or Scrum or... any of these things, really). We have a rolling list of open features/cleanups/bugs and a polite triage convention. In my last company we were all-in on what I can only call Scrummerfall.

As far as I can tell, the effectiveness of the team has a lot more to do with people's ability to self manage their workload (under any system) than how much time and effort is dedicated to tracking it.

We are also able to provide other dependent teams with better day to day visibility on specific requests rather than sprint-level visibility.
