"A Solid Experience with LinearB"

4/5

What do you like best about LinearB?

LinearB has several standout features that truly enhance our workflow. One of the most valuable aspects is its remarkable visibility into teams and groups, which allows us to quickly identify what is working well, and what needs our attention. With full support for standards like DORA and the inclusion of benchmarks, LinearB offers a clear picture of how our teams are progressing, making it an ideal tool for effective communication between engineering managers and stakeholders. Our teams enjoy using LinearB to improve their processes and increase their overall performance. Having objective measures that help drive data-driven decisions, means our teams are always experimenting with ways to improve their impact. The constant addition of new features, such as the Projects view and Grouping, showcases LinearB’s dedication to staying innovative. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LinearB?

Despite its strengths, LinearB does have some areas that could be improved. Its detailed nature can sometimes make upward management challenging. I’d appreciate a streamlined scorecard-type reports that include benchmarks for easier summary reporting to senior leadership. Additionally, the initial configuration that compared individual performance within teams posed challenges during the tool rollout. However, LinearB’s quick response in offering the option to disable this view showed their attentiveness to user feedback. One potential area for growth is actionable insights; introducing contextual guiding insights, as some competitors do, could significantly enhance the platform’s utility. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is LinearB solving and how is that benefiting you?

LinearB is a game-changer in terms of visibility and fostering a data-driven culture. Its visualizations and metrics provide us total transparency into the development process. LinearB’s insights help us continuously learn and iterate on our processes, enabling us to deliver more impact and implement best practices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Interesting software service to boost team productivity"

3.5/5

What do you like best about LinearB?

The customer support has been good, answering queries I've raised. The user interface is very slick and engaging and, if I can get all of the Jira data to pull through in just the right way, I'm sure it can be a useful daily tool. I already appreciate some of the slack commands that allow you to see all outstanding reviews. Very nice! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LinearB?

It can be a bit tricky trying to work out how to properly integrate Jira with it. Technically, the integration is easy but actually seeing the work apportioned to the appropriate users and working over time is a bit harder to quite setup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is LinearB solving and how is that benefiting you?

Being able to measure team productivity is a useful tool to help streamline productivity changes with some objective metrics to measure changes against. I'm wanting to use this as a daily tool to use productivity tracking in a positive way (to encourage the teams to improve by seeing the data reflect better habits).

"Enables Optimizing Cycle Time & Continuous Integration"

4/5

What do you like best about LinearB?

Getting cycle time metrics for teams from a Git perspective is not easy to do without tooling, and LinearB does a great job surfacing this information. By leveraging Jira, you can get some insights at other granularities as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LinearB?

The dashboards are a bit weak, and I end up manually exporting a lot of the cycle time data to show our organization and cross-team trends in retros. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is LinearB solving and how is that benefiting you?

Keeping an eye on team's cycle time. By highlighting this information publically, we've seen it drive behaviours toward more continuous integration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Been using LinearB for a quarter. The insights into team members contributions are very helpful."

3.5/5

What do you like best about LinearB?

LinearB's Pull Request insights are very helpful to Dev Team Leads. They can see how long a PR has been hanging and integrate that into a Slack notification to keep the line moving. We can also see who's carrying the lion's share of the Reviews, which is great information for quarter-end team acknowledgment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LinearB?

The Team sometimes struggles to use the correct naming convention for the Jira integration. We have to manually add new GitHub repos frequently (every day/every other day). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering LinearB:

If a data point isn't making sense, get in contact with the support team - they're very responsive! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is LinearB solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are able to have a good idea of the speed of our teams output. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
