"Essential for Understanding Engineering Metrics"
4/5

They help me better understand why certain tasks take more time than estimates. The initial setup of Hivel was fairly straightforward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Highly Effective for Engineering Teams – Would Love Better JIRA Alignment"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Hivel?

We’ve been using Hivel to boost our team’s developer velocity, and it’s made a noticeable impact. The Daily Activity and Dev360 views help us track day-to-day work, focus time, and overall contribution without needing constant follow-ups. It brings much-needed visibility, especially in remote or hybrid setups.

The Pull Request insights, along with the Cockpit dashboard and Investment Profile, have helped us identify bottlenecks in our delivery pipeline and track where time is being spent across initiatives. With built-in DORA and SPACE metrics, it becomes much easier for tech leads and managers to take data-driven decisions. Hivel has genuinely added value to our engineering workflows. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hivel?

One area of improvement could be around the Investment section — it would be great if it could better align with how different clients use JIRA. For example, supporting custom fields, and allowing DORA metrics, story points, and bug story points to be pulled based on specific JIRA projects or filters, would make this feature more powerful and customisable across teams and best to have based on Sprint Cycle.

"Makes Team Contributions Visible and Meaningful"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Hivel?

Hivel shines a light on the quiet contributors, the ones doing incredible work without always being in the spotlight. The platform helps give credit where it's due, and that goes a long way for team morale. I also really appreciate the smart notifications; they keep me updated on team activities and progress without having to constantly check in manually. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hivel?

While the overall experience is great, I wish the UI could be a bit more customizable. Sometimes the dashboard feels a bit rigid, and being able to tailor it more to individual preferences or workflows would make it even more powerful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Our standups got smoother and the tech team is able to deliver better and faster"
4/5
What do you like best about Hivel?

We felt it was quite easy to setup hivel. the tech team was able to connect to Gitlab, Jira and slack. UI is really clean and simple.

We mostly use Hivel during our daily standups. It shows real-time updates on what each person is working on, how loaded the tech team is, and the overall project status. The dashboards make things really clear and help us stay on track. I personally like the Cockpit feature, it helps us by giving a quick overview of important metrics in one place, so we get to easily see if something’s off in the project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hivel?

There is learning curve to it, new users might find the information provided by Hivel quite overwhelming but it gets comfortable once you get used to it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Dev Intelligence Platform That Understands Engineering Teams"
4/5
What do you like best about Hivel?

Hivel gives me visibility into engineering performance without adding more work for my team. The dashboard is clean, insightful, and actionable. It’s one of the few platforms that doesn’t feel like it’s just measuring lines of code or velocity—it actually helps us improve delivery outcomes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hivel?

Hivel connects our development tools (GitHub, Jira, CI/CD pipelines, etc.) and converts the raw data into meaningful insights. It also tracks team-level metrics that reflect how work flows across planning to deployment, highlighting bottlenecks, delivery trends, and improvement areas. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
