SS Supreet S. Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 3/11/2026 "Data Visibility Enhanced, Room for Performance Improvement" 4/5 What do you like best about Hivel? I appreciate the data-first approach of Hivel, which I find really interesting. It's very focused on data, and the fine-grained views we get are fairly good. I am a big user of the main dashboards, where we can see metrics like code time, code velocity, and lines of code, which are core to our needs. The new tool that shows how much code was written is also exciting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Hivel? I think, to be honest, the performance of the website itself can be a bit here and there. I'd love to have a much more, you know, better performing website in general. That is something which can be improved. But that is not something I cannot live with right now. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Hivel solving and how is that benefiting you? I use Hivel to enhance data visibility, allowing us to objectively measure developer productivity and contributions at a team and individual level.

Ease of Implementation & Integration: Hivel’s intuitive design minimized onboarding friction. Crucially, its integrations with GitHub, Bitbucket, Jenkins and JIRA were a game-changer. This ease of integration automatically creates a vital link between JIRA tickets and PRs, providing objective, auto-populated data for tracking DORA metrics like CFR, MTTR, Lead Time and Deployment Frequency. Ease of Use Drives Adoption: The clean, uncluttered interface is a major factor in Hivel's success. This directly correlates to a high frequency of use; it's not a tool they are forced to use, but their natural daily hub for productivity metrics tracking. Responsive Customer Support: During the implementation phase and beyond, the customer support has been exemplary. They are responsive, knowledgeable, and have acted on our feature suggestions, making us feel like a true partner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Hivel? Non-Configurable Workflow Rules: The platform lacks the granularity to adapt to our development workflows. Gaps in User Activity and Data Consistency: We have encountered ongoing issues where contributor activity data is missing or incomplete for certain team members. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Hivel solving and how is that benefiting you? 1. Problem: Disconnected Tool Sprawl & Context Switching Before Hivel: Our development workflow was fragmented across multiple specialized tools. This caused lack of a single source of truth. How Hivel Solves It: Hivel acts as a unified "Command Center" that consolidates project management, task tracking, and critically code integration into a single platform. As a TPM, I can see the entire story from the initial task and time spent to the specific code commits and PRs in one place. 2. Problem: Anecdotal vs. Data-Driven Decision Making Before Hivel: Our understanding of team velocity, and developer productivity was often based on manual Jira reports, spreadsheets, and stand-up updates. This was time-consuming, prone to error, and often subjective. How Hivel Solves It: Hivel automates the collection of key engineering metrics by directly integrating with our Git repositories. It automatically links development activity (commits, PRs) to JIRA tickets, providing objective data on metrics like lead time, deployment frequency, and cycle time. I can now move from asking "How is the project going?" to presenting data that shows, "Here is our lead time for the last sprint, and here is the trend." This shifts conversations from blame to improvement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I’ve been using Hivel for about a year, and over the past few months we’ve started exploring it more deeply. I began setting clear goals for my team and tracking actionable insights using the Git metrics. The results have been remarkable our throughput and code quality have significantly improved. I’m an active user of the Goals module and several Git-metric tracking features. Hivel genuinely feels like a superpower for me as an Engineering Manager. Hivel offers a wide range of powerful features that are extremely easy to use and highly intuitive. Their product support is exceptional. I’ve never had to wait more than 24 hours for a response. Whenever I’ve faced an issue, the team has been quick to jump on a call and help resolve it immediately. Truly impressive support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Hivel? I’m currently using the older version of Goals (not Goals Pro). In this version, goals are tracked in days and hours, but the exported reports show values in minutes, which makes it difficult to quickly identify which items met the goals and which didn’t. I often have to do additional manual calculations to interpret the data. I’m not sure if this issue is resolved in the new Goals Pro version. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

AG Akshay G. Sr Engineering Manager 11/11/2025 "Intuitive Dashboards with Powerful Code Review Tools" 4.5/5 What do you like best about Hivel? I find Hivel incredibly helpful for tracking code review metrics and understanding the improvement in code quality over time. It offers me insightful dashboards that clearly show which employees are actively participating in code reviews and pushing changes as expected. This feature helps me ensure the team stays engaged and productive. More so, Hivel provides valuable analysis, allowing me to detect if team members are spending too much time on reworks, highlighting areas where code quality may need improvement. The AI-enabled code reviews are particularly impressive; while they may not always be flawless, they have proven to be a standout feature by offering firsthand reviews of PRs. This helps in giving constructive feedback to the team, either to encourage improvement where needed or to acknowledge exemplary performance. The overall setup and navigation of Hivel was also straightforward and intuitive, which made the onboarding process smooth for my team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Hivel? So in some cases, like, when I want to compare employees, it just gives us a few metrics, and I'm not able to, in general, use Hivel to compare different employees or all the members in the team. The graph just lets us choose a couple of metrics, and that is something I don't really understand well. So it may be something that I don't understand well, but, yeah, that I'm not able to use efficiently to give feedback to my team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Hivel solving and how is that benefiting you? I use Hivel to track and analyze code review metrics, improve code quality, and ensure team participation, allowing for better feedback and appreciation.

RJ Rahul J. 11/7/2025 "Centralized Data with Powerful Insights, Better Onboarding for new users will help more" 5/5 What do you like best about Hivel? I appreciate how Hivel centralizes our data, providing everything in one convenient place, which allows my team to have a real-time view of engineering metrics. What stands out is how it helps us track what is on schedule and what is lagging, along with the reasons behind any delays, enabling us to make smarter, data-informed decisions. I absolutely love the AI features Hivel offers. The detailed data on the volume of AI-generated code we deliver is exceptionally insightful, and it has transformed our understanding of AI's role in our workflow. We initially presumed AI was just accelerating our coding process, but the data revealed the need for additional code quality supervision due to increased rework. Furthermore, Hivel facilitates better usage of AI models across our teams, allowing us to identify which tools fit best. This knowledge-sharing enhancement has driven us to conduct regular sessions where more experienced users elevate the proficiency of others, aiding in skill dissemination greatly. The seamless integration with existing tools like GitHub, JIRA, and Cursor also adds to its utility, streamlining our operations significantly. I find this integration essential because it allows Hivel to fit smoothly into our pre-existing infrastructure, minimizing disruptions as we adopt new insights and functionalities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Hivel? I find the initial experience with Hivel to be overwhelming for new users. When I first got into the platform, it felt like there was a lot happening, with numerous metrics, graphs, and numbers everywhere. I didn’t know what to do and found myself constantly needing to go back to the person who handed it off to me for guidance. It would be beneficial to have an onboarding flow or prompts and suggestions to help new users or those returning after a few months to navigate the platform more easily.

Hivel does a great job of extrapolating the DORA metrics, with the ability to really double-click into each of them for deeper insights. I also see strong value in the AI adoption capabilities—especially given that many companies are currently navigating AI transformation. Hivel’s approach can significantly help drive efficiency improvements across the board. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Hivel?

Hivel has made it so much easier to see what’s really happening across our engineering teams. The dashboards are clean, easy to use, and make sense straight away. I really value how it turns complex delivery data into something leadership can actually engage with, not just numbers, but a story about how teams are working. It’s changed how we talk about performance and flow, and the Hivel team have been genuinely responsive and open to feedback. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Hivel? When people rotate between teams, their data tends to follow them, which can throw off team-level reporting if you don’t spot it. It’s not a huge issue, but it does mean you need to double-check context before sharing results more widely. But Hivel have taken this feedback on board and are evolving the product with this feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Hivel solving and how is that benefiting you? Before, it was hard to connect metrics from different tools or explain delivery patterns clearly to leadership. Now we can see trends in cycle time, review habits, and team flow all in one place and use that data to have more constructive conversations about improvement. Overall, it’s turned what used to be scattered, technical data into actionable insight that drives better decisions and more focused discussions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
