Great for understanding where engineering effort is spent
What do you like best about the product?
Jellyfish provides the visibility we need for understanding where our development teams are spending their time. It has also helped us to be more aware of JIRA data hygiene, and following best practices for ensuring work items and code PR reviews are properly connected. Equally for managers such as myself, the tool provides a wealth of information for informing individual discussions with team members too.
The scenario planner helps with estimating projections for likely work completion - thereby taking some of the 'guesswork' out of this. This helps inform stakeholders such as product managers as to likely delivery.
The tool is generally easy to use, one of the key aspects during my evaluation and eventual selection of Jellyfish was that it provides the ability to drill into any chart or metric to see the constituent data. The DevEx aspect for gathering information on the 'qualitative' aspects of how development teams work i.e. their 'feeling' about efficiency and good process is up and coming (its not yet as strong as some competitor tools I evaluated) - but this is more than enough for our needs, considering our initial engineering focus is predominantly on quantitative aspects - which is where Jellyfish excels.
Their customer support team is very responsive to any queries or issues, and having a dedicated person as point of contact for advice has been very helpful for us to try and get the most out of the tool.

What do you dislike about the product?
A couple of features we'd like to have:
- ability to set 'alerts' for specific thresholds e.g. 'large' PRs, though some of the other things we'd be interested in have been covered by the recent Team Pulse feature
- integration with Microsoft 365 calendars (currently only Google is supported)
- integration with HR systems, to pull in team structures & reporting lines

Enabling actionable insights and driving valuable outcomes by making engineering work visible.
What do you like best about the product?
Engineering work is clearly segmented into categories that fit with the way our organisation delivers.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes there is a lack of granularity in control of users' access to information.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Jellyfish shows us exactly what software engineers are working and when. By being aware of the effort, cost and timescales associated with deliverables, products, platforms and teams, we can make investment decisions and prioritise accordingly to maximise the value we get from our engineering capability.
Insightful and Elegant
What do you like best about the product?
Jellyfish is a daily companion for our team. We use it regularly to track progress, and review metrics on a weekly basis to inform our planning and retrospectives. It’s easy to use, even for non-technical team members, and the overall interface is clean and approachable. The graphs are beautiful, useful, and easy to interpret, which makes spotting trends or anomalies straightforward.
I also really appreciate the powerful filtering capabilities, which let us cut the data by team, time range, epic, ticket or delivery status in just a few clicks. The integrations with tools like GitHub and Jira work smoothly and help bring everything into one place.

What do you dislike about the product?
The initial setup experience could be smoother. While the documentation is decent, configuring access and getting the right level of granularity in the data takes a fair amount of time and effort. For teams without a dedicated resource, this might be a bit of a hurdle.
Additionally, one issue I've noticed with their AI usage metrics is that "advanced users" are identified based on cumulative usage volume. This can be misleading, high usage doesn’t necessarily equate to expertise or effectiveness. A more nuanced or behavior-based measure would better reflect actual proficiency with the tool.

What do you dislike about the product?
There are some errors in the synchronization of information, alerts of open pull requests, which were actually already closed, giving false positives.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Centralize the information from different sources like GitHub and Jira, which provides a more accurate view of the team's work, allowing easy identification of areas for improvement.
JellyFish - The software engineering intelligence platform
What do you like best about the product?
I like how Jellyfish gives visibility into our engineering work without disrupting workflows. Being able to track DevOps metrics and align delivery performance with business goals helps our team continuously improve.
What do you dislike about the product?
- Steep learning curve: Some users find it takes time to fully understand and configure the platform effectively.
- Limited customization: There can be constraints when trying to tailor dashboards or reports to specific team needs.
- Data delays: Real-time reporting isn’t always as immediate as expected, which can affect decision-making.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- Disconnected data: Engineering activity is scattered across tools like GitHub, Jira, and CI/CD systems. Jellyfish pulls it all together.
- Unclear performance metrics: It tracks DORA metrics (like deployment frequency and lead time) to measure DevOps health.
- Limited strategic insight: Leaders often struggle to understand where time and effort are going. Jellyfish maps work to business priorities.
- Manual reporting: It automates reporting on engineering output, reducing time spent on spreadsheets and status updates.

Helps me focus and grow, without extra work
What do you like best about the product?
Jellyfish has been a quiet win not only for our leaders and strategic decision makers but also for me as an engineer. It gives clear insights into how we work, what are the focus areas, strengths and improvement potentials, AI impact, and how we compare to various benchmarks. What I really like is how it even connects my work to broader goals, which is motivating. And since everything’s automated, I can stay focused on coding.
What do you dislike about the product?
Takes a bit to get used to the visibility, but it’s worth it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Jellyfish solves the problem of visibility and alignment, and it also helps me see how my work contributes to broader goals.
I enjoy using jellyfish as a Scrum lead
What do you like best about the product?
The Teams feature is especially helpful—it makes all important sprint and team-related data easily accessible in one place. It provides great visibility into team performance, and it’s really nice to see AI adoption stats across the company. This helps track progress and alignment with broader tech trends. The application is easy to use, I don't have look around too much to find what I'm looking for. I use it on a weekly bases for my reports. Jellyfish academy is a nice addition.
What do you dislike about the product?
The Activity Recap in the People menu doesn’t seem very useful or actionable. Benchmarks sometimes lack context, which makes interpretation tricky. Also, some data seems incorrect—or I’m just a really high performer compared to the rest of the company. It's a little annoying that it only updates the data daily.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I collect data from Jellyfish for my weekly reports as a Scrum lead.
great tool for insights across developer experience, planned work and unplanned priorities
What do you like best about the product?
I like that Jellyfish offers visibility, alignment, and planning clarity which is all critical for multi-team leadership. It gives great views for visibility, investment breakdowns, and drill-downs at the granular even possible.
What do you dislike about the product?
With the volume and streams of data access it has, its lack of AI-powered narratives, role-specific insights, and planning guidance and at-risk reporting holds it back to being a tool beyond just a data tool . You want a tool that doesn’t just surface metrics - it tells you what to pay attention to and what action to consider. Adding a strategy lens to the data could be super helpful!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Jellyfish solves the problem of poor visibility into engineering effort, alignment, and team health. engineering leaders benefit by helping rebalance workloads, defend platform investment, onboard managers and engineers faster, and spot execution drifts early without micromanaging.
A world of opportunities
What do you like best about the product?
Jellyfish allows the user to easily highlight areas for improvement. The information itself has high value, but how Jellyfish presents it is the multiplier factor.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like to have comparative metrics among the team members from different perspectives, including the classic user points.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I don't understand the question, I prefer not to answer.
