What do you like best about GitClear?

I can't personally speak for larger corporate entities which seems to be their target audience, but after discovering some github users using GitClear to do tracking of their productivity to help "Gamify" their personal work on projects, I decided to give it a try and it massively increased my motivation. The site is well laid out and the features it has for even the free tier is great for what it provides. Love the visuals as an alternative for my github repo tracker as well as visually seeing how much work I've done in lines of code + time estimations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GitClear?

Parts of the UI definitely seem a little underbaked and a little confusing at times. It's a little difficult and confusing to customize the viewing of the time scale of your commit history and I can't find a way to view history >90 days which may be an intentional feature? I'd like to see alternative views as well and some novel concepts such as visualizing the size of the project over time with a commit tree showing the project grow over time.

What do you like best about GitClear?

I've been thoroughly impressed by GitClear's seamless integration with GitLab, which has made syncing data for investor reports incredibly efficient. The ability to analyse code at a granular level has been invaluable, enabling us to implement impactful changes to our systems. The platform’s user-friendly design has encouraged daily use over the past month, significantly improving our operational insights and strategic decision-making. GitClear has proven to be an indispensable tool for aligning technical and business objectives. I wish I had used it sooner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GitClear?

While the platform delivers excellent functionality, I believe there’s room for improvement in its user experience to make navigation more intuitive. That said, Codrin in support has been exceptional, providing prompt and effective assistance, which ensured I could leverage the platform's features fully despite initial challenges.

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

GitClear has helped us solve the challenge of understanding and improving our development processes. It syncs seamlessly with GitLab, giving us clear insights into code contributions and highlighting areas that need attention. This has allowed us to optimise workflows and make smarter decisions across the board. The data it provides has also been brilliant for creating investor reports – clear, actionable, and easy to present. It’s quickly become an essential part of our day-to-day operations.

What do you like best about GitClear?

Above all, DiffDelta functions excellently as a metric score for improving development productivity. This gamification is outstanding. We previously used other products claiming to be DORA-based, but due to unstable code line counts, reports with averages weak against outliers, and inflexibility in not providing APIs or CSVs, we considered another product as a last resort. Compared to other expensive services with little academic basis, GitClear felt like it offered reasonable subscription prices and evidence-based reports. When we actually used it, this feeling turned into conviction.

GitClear appropriately makes various reports observable based on the strength of DiffDelta, such as percentile-based peer reports, a commit activity browser that makes it easy to understand the state of engineers, and visualization reports of DiffDelta acceleration to understand the health of source code. We use it for engineer KPI management and confidently recommend it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GitClear?

Occasionally, there are instances where the behavior seems buggy or unstable. However, we can quickly send feedback with screenshots using the "Submit feedback" link button in the header. We usually receive a response by the next business day, and sometimes the issue is resolved on the same day. In this sense, we don't feel it's a significant problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

GitClear helps solve business problems by providing a way to measure engineer productivity, which is typically difficult to quantify, through a well-tuned metric called DiffDelta. DiffDelta is a stable metric that's hard to manipulate, serving as an ideal gamification score where pursuing a higher DiffDelta leads to improved development productivity.

The reporting features are excellent, allowing comparisons of weekly DiffDelta production with engineers from other companies, or comparing an engineer's DiffDelta production in a given week with that of other engineers at the same point in their tenure on the project. The stability of the DiffDelta metric ensures these reports provide highly objective insights.

GitClear's research suggests a correlation between DiffDelta quantity and revenue. Conversely, if DiffDelta quantity increases without a corresponding increase in company value, it may indicate an underlying issue.

The provision of academic evidence allows for confident assessment of not just individual developer productivity, but also team and codebase productivity and health. This comprehensive approach is extremely valuable for evaluating and enhancing overall development processes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Still a new product, and it feels like a lot of bugs. It hangs sometimes, and UI must be improved to make it feel like an enterprise-standard product. They need to work on UI a lot. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
