Faros enables insights capabilities we've never had before
What do you like best about the product?
Faros provides incredible flexibility to connect data sets we've never been able to correlate before, much more easily than other solutions like PowerBI. For over a year, my team has been working to build organizational insights data that highlight gaps in processes and development practices using standard CI/CD DORA metrics combined with non-standard, internally generated metrics.
The platform itself handles much of the logic and heavy lifting that would be an instant de-motivator for a lot of organizations. While the learning curve can be a little steep at first, a power user is able to build views, reports, dashboards, etc that provide substantial value in minutes/hours when it would take a team of technical resources months to do the same in other tools.
Technology aside, Faros the team has been a great partner from day one, helping us to onboard and working through our questions with direct communication, and handling issues as they arise, being remarkably quick with turnarounds when a technical problem needs to be resolved.

Centralized data to enhance productivity
Faros is a game-changer for simplifying and visualizing complex data
What do you like best about the product?
Faros has helped us gain visibility into our engineering health. Especially since we can store our metrics in one place, we can easily connect the dots and analyze different aspects of engineering health. The options for visualizations, filters, and alert workflows are a huge plus. This makes it easy for us to automate reports, reducing the amount of manual work after the query has been built.
Another note is their partnership: since the beginning, the team has taken the initiative to understand what we need, making the setup process simple. They are really on top of requests and responsive when it comes to providing guidance and recommendations.
