What do you like best about the product?
Visualizations are money. Customer service is awesome. They really care
What do you dislike about the product?
They’re a startup right now so that comes with a few quirks, but nothing they won’t keep buttoning up with time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We need to know what our engineers are doing. This is a seamless way to get insight into what’s going on With quantitative data.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Get to know them. Half the battle when it comes to buying saas is knowing the people backing the software will be there to ensure your expectations are met. These guys understand that alongside all of the code they’re pushing.

A must have to understand and take actions with your technical teams.

What do you like best about the product?
The ability to classify teams and compare metrics that align to KPIs is critical for anyone responsible for technical teams. The reports generated from Allstacks help me know where my areas of improvement are.
What do you dislike about the product?
There aren't really any dislikes, more just feature requests and the team at Allstacks is working with us to develop this additional features. It is a solid product and is only as good as the data you drive to it. If it could only make my team put estimated due dates in tickets. :)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We leverage both internal and offshore development teams and Allstacks helps me create benchmarks for both. I can use the data from Allstacks to negotiate better deals with my offshore teams. Im also using the data to revise processes and identify developers who might need training.

Gave me insight into what I knew in my gut but didn't have the data to back up

What do you like best about the product?
Allstacks gives insight into what Project Managers inherently know about their projects but don't always have the data to share. I really appreciate how easy this tool makes it to share data with stakeholders. As a project manager, I am close to my projects and know what's going on but having that clear data to share isn't always so easy to pull together. This tool helped solve that problem. Not only did it report on the real time statistics but the forecasting reporting was also very helpful as a cross reference to the estimates the team was putting together. I would recommend Allstacks to anyone trying to gain a deeper understanding of project status, team performance, and trends.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes there can be too much of a good thing. There is tons of data to review, some pages could be simpler to understand as a new user.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A real example of a solved problem was a process breakdown we didn't know we had. The reports I was receiving about what the QA team was working on weren't lining up with what the dev team was seeing. Allstacks gave us user data from Jira on a level that showed that there was a process breakdown. The level of data wasn't something I was able to get from Jira itself. With the more granular data we were able to identify the issue and amend the process so the dev team got QA feedback faster.

Phenomenal team and code health monitoring software + forecasting

What do you like best about the product?
- An incredibly detailed suite of reports across all aspects of our engineering lifecycle, from Slack to Jira.
- Great metrics and breakdowns. Has everything I would have wanted to measure myself, and a number of new ways to cut the data that I had not thought to measure before.
- Intelligent in its measurements and predictions – for example, the overtime analysis counts 'major event' activity and not just sending a quick slack message, allowing me to more accurate tell who on my team might be overworked.
- Forward-looking reporting – most analytics tools just help you cut historical data, this also applies it on a go-forward to see how we are trending toward our launch dates.
What do you dislike about the product?
- Would like some power-user abilities, like a bit more customization on how some reports are visualized, exports, etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- Getting more predictability in our engineering cycles – have already begun to realize this after just a couple weeks of using the tool by drilling into some key metrics that drive our releases and utilizing their related features like the 'Portfolio' and 'Milestone' reports.
- Better insight into team health – been able to use a lot of the breakdowns to see what is and isn't working well across the different pods on our engineering team.
- Analysis of strengths and weaknesses of different team members – was able to numerically confirm anecdotal things I have noticed in a couple cases already, and look at other areas with new, more holistic, perspective.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try the demo! I was surprised at how much value I found immediately – initially thought it would take a lot of setup.
