Keeps me on track and helps with daily work
What do you like best about the product?
As a senior software dev, I rely on two features daily:
- Activity section. A few times it really saved me when I needed to remember what I was doing last week or even earlier. It's almost like having a work diary without writing one.
- Interaction Chart — it's handy to see who's working on what and who could step in if someone is away. Both features together make it easier to follow what's going on without having to ask around all the time.

What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there were more slack/email notifications or maybe a weekly summary of starred items.
Also, I've noticed some teammates aren't using Jellyfish to its full potential, likely because they don't see the immediate value, so maybe more training or quick demos would help.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Jellyfish mostly helps me not lose track of what's been going on. Before, I sometimes had to scroll through Slack conversations or tickets history just to remember what I worked on or who was involved. Now I can open the Activity view and see it right away, even if it was weeks ago. The Interactions also solve the problem for me - I can quickly figure out who’s working on what and who to ask if someone’s out.
All these things just make catching up and staying in the loop a lot less effort.

Engineering manager for a tech company
What do you like best about the product?
Makes tracking sprint metrics, PR review rates, and everything else you need to know to fine tune your team very easy... when you use Jira in the right way. As long as you use Jira in the standard way, jellyfish just works, and it works great.
What do you dislike about the product?
One of my teams is an enablement team, not a domain team, and we set up our jira boards to work off of labels instead of by project. This makes it much harder to track, since I can't group tickets or sprints by label. I simply don't use jellyfish for that team. If they added the ability to group by a label, I would use it for every team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easy metrics for measuring team velocity and productivity
Productive and Insightful Project Management Tool
What do you like best about the product?
I like how Jellyfish provides clear visibility into project progress, team performance, and resource allocation. The dashboards are intuitive, and the analytics help make data-driven decisions faster. It’s also easy to integrate with other tools we use, which streamlines our workflow.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the loading times can be slow when handling large datasets, and certain customization options for reports are limited. It would be great to have more flexibility in tailoring the visuals and filters to match specific needs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Jellyfish helps us centralize project tracking and align engineering work with business priorities. It gives us real-time visibility into progress, workload distribution, and delivery timelines, which improves planning and prevents bottlenecks. As a result, we can make informed decisions faster, keep projects on track, and optimize our team’s efficiency.
Robust Tool for Project Tracking and Efficiency
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate how Jellyfish provides visibility into areas not always apparent in daily operations, allowing us to pinpoint actionable process improvements. The individual metrics are very useful for one-on-ones with developers, helping identify areas for improvement. I love how it integrates well with AI tools like cursor and Copilot, helping track usage statistics and throughput metrics. Jellyfish is extremely beneficial for estimating delivery times and understanding the impact of changes in project scope.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would make navigation between Jira and Jellyfish a little smoother. Sometimes I think I'm going to click in to see an issue in Jira from Jellyfish, and there are multiple screens in between that view that I don't expect.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Jellyfish improves project estimates, delivery times, and process visibility, enhances scenario planning, and identifies actionable fixes in workflows. It integrates seamlessly with Jira, tracking metrics effectively, and helps in adapting AI tools by showcasing impacts on cycle times.
Insightful and Effective Tool for Engineering Management
What do you like best about the product?
Jellyfish provides clear visibility into engineering operations, helping us align team efforts with business priorities. I especially appreciate the detailed metrics on engineering allocation and delivery trends. The dashboards are intuitive and the reporting features make it easy to communicate progress with stakeholders. It's been instrumental in driving data-informed decisions for our team.
What do you dislike about the product?
While the platform is powerful, the initial setup and integration with some engineering tools took longer than expected
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Jellyfish helps solve the challenge of understanding how engineering teams are spending their time and whether those efforts align with company priorities. It brings transparency to engineering operations, making it easier to identify bottlenecks, track delivery performance, and allocate resources effectively. As a result, we’re able to prioritize better, improve team efficiency, and have more informed conversations with leadership based on real data instead of assumptions.
Excellent tool for monitoring Engineering Productivity
What do you like best about the product?
It brings together data from our ticketing management system and our code repository to show productivity metrics per developer, team and sprint. This is invaluable in identifying areas of improvement and enabling fruitful discussions between development managers and the developers. This also helps us in our discussions with vendors who can then align skillset to our technology and needs around velocity.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can appear expensive at first, however we were extended a long trial period and support that helped justify the costs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Planning of sprints and releases and allocation towards initiatives.
Ease of Use
What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to use for most parts. The AI impact should make our use of GitHub Copilot simpler. Understanding other teams' velocity isn't straightforward, but it's not difficult to locate the information. We also received training on how to interpret these metrics.
What do you dislike about the product?
The interface is a bit complex, and without training, we aren’t aware of features like team activities, Jira, and PR measures. The team also has many questions about how these are calculated.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The company uses this tool to track team velocity and AI activities. We are in the process of learning how to use it. It's important for us to have a shared understanding when we communicate.
Great for tracking personal engineering impact!
What do you like best about the product?
Absolutely the best functionality is the ability to drill down into my stats for a given time slice. The granularity in which I can how I performed for a given week is astonishing. Love the different metrics and how they tie back to my work for the week.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish the was the ability to have custom groups of individuals favorited. It does not appear easy to select all the SR staff engs and then compare their metrics at once. I'd love to be able to do this so I can see where I stack up against the group.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Jellyfish allows for me to have great insight into the ACTUAL work I did in a given week. It allows me to tie back that work to true impact on the engineering org. It also helps to provide metrics when I am going to bat for an engineer or for myself.
Jellyfish takes the obscure and makes it visible
What do you like best about the product?
I love that there are easy to use dashboards taking information that is also already available in different systems like Jira, and Bitbucket - and makes it easy to be able to grok what is going on from a numbers standpoint. It also helps hold all the teams across the company accountable to have good Jira hygiene to ensure the reporting is as expected. Its pretty easy to add new teams, and begin consuming data. You can absoultey get the same results going directly to each application, however this makes it easy and visible without having to search for the data and where it lives in a consistent way.
I tend to use it on the daily to check in on the heartbeat of the team, see how engaged my developers are, and who deserves recognition for going above and beyond even if its not in a forum that is easily visible to me (code reviews, meetings, etc.).

What do you dislike about the product?
Due to the nature of the refresh happening on a rolling 24 hours, I wish it would reflect changes a bit quicker.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Today, when we are asked on what kind of capacity we have today, tomorrow, and a month from now - much of that is done manually in excel spreadsheets, smartsheets, or other PM tools that are familiar with our Program Managers. The data is readily available in Jira, however finding it can sometimes require a more power user approach, and each user can customize it so it makes measuring across the Enterprise org difficult. Jellyfish makes that easy, and enables quick adoption by new users - providing a consistent way to measure and share capacity when doing thigns like Quarterly Planning.
Because its a known tool by PMs its also useful when asked to 'prove' the numbers behind our estimates when doing Quarterly Planning exercises.

Jellyfish is good platform for data-driven engineering/business decision making
What do you like best about the product?
end to end tracking particular project/epic
What do you dislike about the product?
it should consider log time from Jira to calculate the effort spend
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is helping me to see where is my engineering team contributing, how they make progress or improvement in development process. Where they can expedite the development process.
