## Reviews

### "Powerful Tool to view your teams" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *18 December 2020* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ability to get enhanced reports into sprint metrics over the month/quarter
> 
> **Cons**: Sometimes tricky to drill down into how things like carryover are being labeled

-----

### "Good software for understanding how Engineering and Product come together" — 4.0/5

> **Michael** | *15 December 2020* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: 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 impact, Jellyfish 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.
> 
> **Cons**: 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.
> 
> 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.

-----

### "Gets the job done" — 4.0/5

> **Evgeny** | *21 December 2020* | Food & Beverages | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Provides data and information necessary to perform my work in a convenient method
> 
> **Cons**: UI isn't intuitive and requires addl. research before using. Navigation isn't intuitive either.

-----

### "Plug and Play analytics that custom fit your business" — 4.0/5

> **Meghan** | *29 December 2020* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The tool allows for allocation of effort spent, allowing a business to understand effort without time tracking.  Rolling that data up into business value data points.   Additionally, we were able to plug this into our existing ticket tracking system, and begin to see the analytics right away.
> 
> **Cons**: The user experience takes time to learn.  The negative is both pro and con because there is SO MUCH data available, its difficult to best know how you'd pack that into an easier UI.
> 
> Wonderful customer services, not only supporting our needs, but also providing their own experience to help solve our business use cases. Again, really pleased we have a solution that allows for effort tracking without requiring time tracking. Additionally to reiterate the plug and play reality of this software is wonderful.  You have the option to customize to fit your business needs, yet still getting business value data right away just by looking at existing tools.

### "Jellyfish is a great entry in this crowded space" — 5.0/5

> **Bill** | *23 September 2020* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love how Jellyfish has an opinionated view that the metrics that matter for an engineering team should be ones that help you understand what value your organization is working on and shipping, not just what individuals are doing on a given day.  That allows me to use Jellyfish in a more strategic way than some of the other tools in this space I've previously tried.
> 
> **Cons**: It's still a somewhat new product, the UI took me a little getting use to because there were so many different types of data and ways to access it.  I liked the breadth and depth of data about my organization they had, but I look forward to them tweaking how it's presented in the future.
> 
> It's been very good so far.  It was easy to setup, easy to start using and within the first week I was using it as the basis of communications and presentations I had to give both to my group and to my leadership.
