Waydev helps collect and organize our data to provide insights on the team's work
What do you like best about the product?
The automated emails that share the key information about the teams performance. It can be difficult to stay on top of all the metrics that matter to the team, but the emails remove that cognitive load.
What do you dislike about the product?
Getting up-to-speed on how to best leverage waydev took more time than anticipated.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It collects and organizes the data that matters to me. It can be difficult to stay on top of all the requirements behind managing a large software team, however the automate emails with key metrics allows me to set it and forget it.
It's a great tool for monitoring the development team's performance
What do you like best about the product?
I found the setup process really simple. You have to connect to your git provider and Jira but it's really only a few clicks and the documentation provided was extremely clear. There are a lot of metrics you can track and you can create custom dashboards to organize them. The DORA metrics are also a great objective benchmark to compare against.
What do you dislike about the product?
I haven't found anything I dislike about it yet.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It was hard to objectively determine how well the development teams, as well as individual members are performing. With Waydev we can decide on the metrics that are important for us and track team performance easily against those so we can spot immediately what needs improvement and how to approach it.
No brainer for large teams
What do you like best about the product?
Waydev provides multiple data points that help technical and non technical managers better manager their engineering efforts and critical points. As a Eng manager and founder of over 15 years, I believe that data can compliment the natural skills of most Eng managers out there. Also, as a former competitor of Waydev, I can attest that this is currently the best solution out there for those looking for a solution in this space!
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing so far though a public roadmap and more developer evangelism would be beneficial
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Monitoring a remote team in the post covid era to pick up on crucial points often missed in qualitative assessments
A powerup to our sprint retrospectives and my one on ones!
What do you like best about the product?
Waydev has ceratinly been super helpful brining in more quantitative data to our sprint retrospectives, and my one on ones. It helps paint a better story of throughput and avoids "I'm feeling X", but rather "based on X metric...".
What do you dislike about the product?
I think a way to customized dashboards to be more specific on what you need but this is a tiny thing as the default one is fantastic!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Again, it's really helping provide a lot of out-of-the-box analytics on speed of output metrics and stability of output metrics, which are absolutely essential to a startup. It saves me a lot of time.

Great insights, really customisable
What do you like best about the product?
I'm a big fan! They do have a high product development speed and provide great updates constantly.
I also love their custom dashboards because it gives me the possibility to set up dashboards with all the metrics that I need, displayed exactly how I want to see them.

What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing really, super communicative and supportive. Great insights for me and my managers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps us track the bottlenecks we encounter before causing problems, which is a big time saver.
Based on all the insights, we managed to improve the efficicency of our team - for example, we have more frequent deploys and a smaller Change Failure Rate.

Waydev is a big time saver for a busy engineering leader.
What do you like best about the product?
What I like most about Waydev are the DORA Metrics. I was really interested into zooming into our Change Failure Rate and Lead Time, and Waydev pulls them in automatically.
I’m also a big fan of the new Custom Dashboards feature because I like to have full control over what I see in my dashboard.

What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing that bothered us with the platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before Waydev, we tried to track the progress of our teams and set some specific targets, but without a tool like this, it’s almost impossible to keep track of every important metric. Doing this manually takes lots of time. Waydev is a big time saver for a busy engineering leader, because it doesn't require manual imput from me or anyone in my team.
Waydev helped us be a lot more efficient by providing insight into the software development process
What do you like best about the product?
There are many things I like about the platform, but the one I like best must be that it truly improved the efficiency of my team. We didn’t exactly know where we could improve as a team, until we got Waydev. It gave us a lot of insight into what’s working well, and what’s not, so it gave us the power to perform better.
What do you dislike about the product?
They did a great job, actually. Can't think of anything I don't like about the platform. If I have to nit pick I would love to learn how to make use of the charts within the app (some kind of learning center). But their awesome success team covered that pretty well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We felt like we needed to have more insight into everything that’s going on in the software development process and see the areas we can improve. Waydev offered us full visibility and we knew exactly how to improve. For example, since we were able to measure it and zoom into it, our Cycle Time reduced considerably.
Review Waydev
What do you like best about the product?
The advantage of using waydev is to be able to have complete control of the actions generated by the developers once the work is started in azure/gitlab or even Jira.
The greatest advantage that waydev allows is to be able to have a large number of reports according to the search criteria of each user.

What do you dislike about the product?
One of the things where the platform fails is having constant or repetitive problems in some of its functions.
The best ones that they do sometimes are during the hours in which one is visualizing the tool.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The workers at waydev have resolved most of the issues we've had in the course of using the tool. The response time could be said to be fast and the "will" to solve problems as well.
Insights on velocity and bottlenecks
What do you like best about the product?
Waydev let's you quickly see where you have slow down in your code delivery cycle and target the areas that need assistance.
What do you dislike about the product?
No downsides, but I wish I had more control over the reports. I don't want to just create a dashboard with widgets but freeform queries as well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- Development velocity and areas of slow progress
- Focus on areas of code change(new, refactor, etc..)
- Identify areas of code/repos with the greatest churn
