V1 - The fast & visual way to understand your developers. Waydev analyze your codebase from Github, Gitlab & Bitbucket to help you bring out the best in your engineers work.
Hey @stapho_thienpont! Until now we've had a limit for of 12 months, but from now on we've managed to process your data since the start of the repositories.
Report
Overall I recommend this for non-devs.
It's a nice UI/UX wrapper on top of github.
It has a very smooth onboarding experience and was easy to link up to Github.
But... it's probably best used as a place to start discussions with developers rather than evidence of progress or absence.
I was hoping to use this as a way to visualize my own development velocity but ran into a few gaps:
- Can't track different branches other than master
- I find the impact score a bit misleading since it's tied closely to # of commits.
- Some of my commits are fairly massive updates while others are trivial. This means that it is still similar to rating the quality of a book by the number of pages - which is useful in some very basic scenarios but quickly degrades.
Cheers!
@marcojelli Hey! I am happy you found it useful.
- Regarding the branches, we will push a fix next week.
- Every feedback it is a big push for us, we try to improve the Impact Score as much as we can, because of this we will also add Slack and Google Apps.
Hey @marcojelli!
We know about the problem related to branches, and we try to solve it as soon as possible.
As for impact formula, we try to improve it every day and this kind of feedback helps us a lot.
@marcojelli Hey Marcus! Now we're tracking all the branches and we've change the Impact Score. You can try here our last version https://app.waydev.co/login
I love that it's so easy to use for non-technical founders, especially that more and more marketers are going into the space of technical products and it gives them more flexibility and opportunities to learn.
I've been using this since the early days, I can say it's a very well crafted product. Since I'm a dev, I tracked my own progress over months and the algorithm seems to be on point. I will def continue to use when my team grows!
This looks like a great concept. Coding is difficult and complex, and this is often the barrier between development and managers or clients. While initial stats may not be 100% accurate, I can see how continued use can lead to better results.
Pros:
Easy to use, creates a bridge between non-technical managers and developers, can help keep track of multiple projects, status at a glance
Cons:
You need to take the metrics with a grain of salt, I can see how it might not always be accurate
Can't use superficial metrics like that. Means nothing. Needs to measure actual value created, e.g. by impact on the users, or feedback from customer interviews etc
Hey @anton_ushakov! Thank you for your feedback! Waydev comes to help you take better decisions. We're an add-on to your project management tool. Due to the Product Hunt Launch, we've realized that "Impact Score" term it is not relevant to use for what we're doing, and we decided to change with "Activity Score."
Great to be back on here. At the previous launch, we've received a lot of feedback regarding our solution, we've processed the feedback, and we're excited to kick off 2019 by launching our new product. The new dashboard gives you an overview of your work so you can check the health or see correlations across your commits. -- https://www.producthunt.com/post...

We intend to use this product as soon as we have full time development
Pros:Very clean UX
Cons:We don’t have full time developers yet, so we can’t really benefit yet.

Pros:Seems like a good idea to non-tech founders
Cons:Actually tells them nothing about progress made
