"Excellent Engineering Insights and Support, Seamless Integration"

4/5

What do you like best about Waydev?

We've been using Waydev on regular basis for about two years, mainly for engineering analytics and performance insights. The platform provides excellent visibility into engineering operations — from DORA metrics to PR-related insights — giving a holistic understanding of team performance and development flow. The Waydev team is very supportive, responsive to feedback, and proactive in helping us get the most out of the product. Integration with our existing tools was smooth, and the overall setup process was straightforward. Overall, Waydev has been a valuable tool for driving data-informed conversations and improving visibility into our engineering processes. Recommended for teams looking to gain actionable insights into developer performance and workflow efficiency. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Waydev?

One area that could use some improvement is the Developer Experience (DevEx) surveys — they still feel a bit raw and could benefit from more flexibility and depth. Also, the number of available metrics can feel overwhelming at first, though it becomes manageable once you focus on what really matters to your team.

I’d also love to see more flexible dashboards that allow combining tangible data with subjective insights (for example, using the SPACE framework). In case of many integration, contributors management may be a bit more time consuming than it could be. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Waydev helps us turn engineering activity into clear, actionable insights. It bridges the gap between day-to-day development work and business visibility by tracking DORA metrics, PR activity, and team performance trends. This enables us to make data-driven decisions, identify bottlenecks early, and improve processes in systematic manner. It’s been especially valuable for fostering more objective, transparent discussions around productivity and team health. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good software for understanding how engineering and product come together"

5/5

What do you like best about Waydev?

I appreciate that it gives a more product centric view to engineering output. Rather than focusing on reducing engineers down to an abstract number making opaque claims about individual impart, Waydev looks more holistically at what engineering is working on, how it ties back to roadmap and higher level goals, and really helps understand where time is being spent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Waydev?

The individual developer metrics are not very useful. I would be fine with not having them, but as it is, we don't use them so it,s kind of clutter in the interface. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It's been great so far. It was a slow start for us because we also had to transition to using jira rather than Github issues, But as we've finalized processes, We're starting to have a nice trove of data to help with planning and facilitate discussions amongst engineering leadership and with the product organization.

"Finally, a Clear picture of our Dev Team's work."

5/5

What do you like best about Waydev?

Before Waydev, figuring out our dev team was doing was basically educated guesswork. We'd look at Jira tickets, ask around and hope we had the full story. With Waydev, I can open one dashboard and instantly see where the work is flowing and where it's getting stuck. I really like that it pulls data from Github, no extra reports or check-ins needed from the team Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Waydev?

The first week felt a little overwhelming, there's a lot of data to take in before you figure out what's most useful for you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Keeping our Medical Software Development on Track"

5/5

What do you like best about Waydev?

In healthcare software, deadlines aren't just business goals, they're tied to regulations approvals. Waydev's weekly summaries have been a lifesaver for keeping tabs on progress without breathing down the dev team's necks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Waydev?

I wish we could pull historical data from further back to compare older projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"It's a great tool for monitoring the development team's performance"

5/5

What do you like best about Waydev?

I found the setup process really simple. You have to connect to your git provider and Jira but it's really only a few clicks and the documentation provided was extremely clear. There are a lot of metrics you can track and you can create custom dashboards to organize them. The DORA metrics are also a great objective benchmark to compare against. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Waydev?

I haven't found anything I dislike about it yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It was hard to objectively determine how well the development teams, as well as individual members are performing. With Waydev we can decide on the metrics that are important for us and track team performance easily against those so we can spot immediately what needs improvement and how to approach it.

"Waydev helps collect and organize our data to provide insights on the team's work"

4/5

What do you like best about Waydev?

The automated emails that share the key information about the teams performance. It can be difficult to stay on top of all the metrics that matter to the team, but the emails remove that cognitive load. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Waydev?

Getting up-to-speed on how to best leverage waydev took more time than anticipated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"No brainer for large teams"

5/5

What do you like best about Waydev?

Waydev provides multiple data points that help technical and non technical managers better manager their engineering efforts and critical points. As a Eng manager and founder of over 15 years, I believe that data can compliment the natural skills of most Eng managers out there. Also, as a former competitor of Waydev, I can attest that this is currently the best solution out there for those looking for a solution in this space! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Waydev?

"A powerup to our sprint retrospectives and my one on ones!"

4/5

What do you like best about Waydev?

Waydev has ceratinly been super helpful brining in more quantitative data to our sprint retrospectives, and my one on ones. It helps paint a better story of throughput and avoids "I'm feeling X", but rather "based on X metric...". Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Waydev?

I think a way to customized dashboards to be more specific on what you need but this is a tiny thing as the default one is fantastic! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
