Actionable dashboards, hassle-free setup
What do you like best about the product?
Jellyfish was the clear winner during our due diligence process for onboarding an engineering analytics tool. Jellyfish's insights provided immediate value, enabling our engineering teams to make informed adjustments from day one. We've incorporated some of Jellyfish's metrics in our sprint reviews and while making data-driven decisions. Currently considering using Jellyfish's DevFinOps features for a more accurate and repeatable software cost capitalization process.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of these may be future improvements already in the pipeline. It's tricky to switch to a sprint cadence view instead of a monthly or a quarterly view. This approach probably makes sense because Jellyfish's primary users are executives and engineering leaders. Occasionally, it's tricky to understand if a particular metric has Jellyfish's secret sauce calculations or if it's verbatim from Jira / GitHub.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have a better understanding of engineering effort allocations across single or multiple projects. We are getting better at sprint and OKR level predictability by using metrics like sprint churn, cycle time, issue lifecycle, etc.

Run your engineering team the way you run your business.
What do you like best about the product?
Being able to integrate data across multiple different engineering critical applications into cohesive metrics for many different dimensions of productivity and analysis.
What do you dislike about the product?
When adopting a sprint driven Agile approach it can be a bit tricky to correlate calendar months or weeks to the appropriate windows of effort.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Recognizing where our efficiencies and inefficiencies are and adapting accordingly. Also, sharing that progress and status with others in the organization.
Easily digestible engineering metrics useful across the entire organization
What do you like best about the product?
Jellyfish creates quality interactive visualizations of engineering performance data that would typically take days to pull together by hand. If anything looks wonky, you can click into the chart and find the source of the discrepancy easily. They consistently update their product, adding new planning features and allowing the user to set sutom views. Our engineering and product teams utilize JF to track delivery - very helpful.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only downsides I see are that some quality of life features aren't in the platform yet, and there is limited customization. However, this is due to it being a relatively young product. Every suggestion I've had has been taken by our CSM and we hear updates all the time. They also have a user forum for feedback.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Jellyfish allocate our engineering costs to tangible business objectives. We are now able to estimate a project's true cost to a higher degree of accuracy than our previous method.
We also use Jellyfish to track program sdelivery. Teams have been able to pull relavant metrics and improve their on-time delivery rate.

Deep insights for Engineering managers
What do you like best about the product?
Jeelyfish provides multiple levels of consolidation on data and trends. At the same time, it gives you the ablity to see the contributing matrices at an individual level.
What do you dislike about the product?
A lot of the data looks empty due to either bad integration or the inability to follow right steps. Jeelyfish should highlight that an provide tips in the tool to improve that.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The engineering headcount increased by almost 4x in the last couple of years and jellyfish enabled us to scale well while effectively monitoring sprint health, and track work allocation, and productivity at an individual level.
Opens your eyes up to new ways of thinking
What do you like best about the product?
My favourite feature is "Interactions and Activity". I've never thought which developers are reviewing whose PRs before, but this feature makes it super easy to visualize direction and amount of interactions in Git PRs.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'm very conscious that people could use Jellyfish metrics the wrong way, such as tying a specific metric to somebody's performance review. Maybe Jellyfish could highlight risk in its UI? Sort of an in-UI education thing?
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I haven't figured this out yet. I've spent maybe 5-10 hours on Jellyfish. I'm still learning the tool and how it can benefit me.
Jellyfish is a powerful tool for Engineering team insights
What do you like best about the product?
Jellyfish (JF) gives you a LOT of data and insights into your teams. While much of this data is available in source tools like Jira or Github, JF makes it very easy to get aggregated information, extrapolations, and insights gleaned from their algorithms and combined metrics. We also use the Cost Capitalization module which is game-changing for our Engineering teams. We get most of the Cost Capitalization data/reports for "free." The Cost Capitalization module has meant our Fiance teams don't need to bother Engineering teams to get Cost Capitalization data (time spent on projects, etc), respond to audits, etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not a dislike, but an acknowledgment of "garbage in, garbage out". For JF to become useful, your team's processes and data practices need to be clean. If Jira data is incomplete, Jira or Github practices spotty or inconsistent, then the information in JF will be poor. A powerful effect of adopting JF has been a concerted effort to clean up our data and processes. It can't be understated the amplification effect in JF if your source data in Jira nd Github are poor. While it's been a heavy lift to clean up data/processes, it's been a significant benefit across our Engineering teams that extends well beyond just JF.
One challenge in JF itself is its learning curve. It can be a complex product and requires commitment and consistent adoption to see value. But if you're willing to work to clean data and learn the ins and outs of the tool, it is very powerful and valuable. More/better training resources and some UX changes could make it more intuitive and easy to pick up quickly.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Jellyfish (JF) provides a lot of easy to see metrics and insights that used to take us a lot of time, forensics, data processing to get before JF. It's difficult to quantify Engineering effectiveness. There is no single metric, piece of data, or silver bullet to tell you how an Engineering team is doing and if it's effective, productive, or healthy. Where are teams feeling pain? Do we have bottlenecks? Are we being efficient? These are notoriously difficult not only to measure but to interpret and act upon. JF's super power is giving us fast, easy access to a lot of data points that let's us spot trends -- but then has the ability to double click and drill into areas we have questions.
Awesome tool for tracking project split and finding inefficiencies with sprint plannings
What do you like best about the product?
UI is great - easy to use and understand, and tickets/projects/teams are imported from our ticket management system, so everything is consistent.
What do you dislike about the product?
The import process for first time initialization could be better - there were quite a few duplicated entries from JIRA projects/tickets.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We wanted a clear picture of how our efforts are spent during product development and the planning process. Jellyfish provides a central place to analyze and visualize related data.
Powerful Insights to Guide Decision Making
What do you like best about the product?
I have been using Jellyfish now for several years. It opens up a plethora of insights that had historically been difficult to compile. This information unlocks much more powerful decision making capabilities. My teams use it to retrospect and make continuous improvements. The deliverables views also deliver as close to ground truth as possible on the status of your company initiatives. All around great product.
What do you dislike about the product?
Any time I have an issue or feature request the Jellyfish team is very responsive. They are continuously delivering new and powerful features. Most recently my teams have benefitted from the new Life Cycle feature. It provides great, actionable detail into the software development lifecycle.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Jellyfish to confirm our actual work allocation is in line with company objectives, our teams use the team-based metrics for retrospectives and reviews, and we use the deliverables views for ground truth on the status of our key company initiatives.
