"Clear visibility into AI Adoption, finally tied to real outcomes"
What do you like best about Waydev?

Waydev gave us something we were missing for a long time: a reliable, data-driven understanding of how our engineering teams actually operate. The integration with our stack (GitHub, Jira, CI/CD) was seamless, and the platform immediately started surfacing insights we couldn’t get before without manual work.

What stands out is the depth of analysis. We can track delivery speed, review cycles, and quality metrics in one place, but more importantly, we can understand why things are happening. The AI-driven insights and the ability to ask questions directly in the platform instead of building dashboards manually is a big step forward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Waydev?

There is a bit of a learning curve at the beginning, especially when trying to align internal definitions (like what “productivity” or “impact” means for us) with the platform’s metrics. That said, once configured properly, it becomes very intuitive. Some teams initially questioned the data accuracy, but that was more about understanding how metrics are calculated rather than actual issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Alex Circei of Waydev

Cristian, really appreciate you taking the time to share this, especially the depth of feedback.

What you said about “finally understanding why things are happening” is exactly the problem we set out to solve. A lot of tools surface metrics, but very few help teams connect those signals to real outcomes or decisions. That gap is what we’re trying to close with Waydev, especially as AI becomes part of the development process.

Glad to hear the integrations and early insights were smooth right out of the gate. We’ve invested a lot there because we know time-to-value matters.

On the learning curve and metric alignment, you’re absolutely right. Defining what “productivity” or “impact” means internally is not trivial, and the platform often surfaces that misalignment early. The good part, as you mentioned, is that once those definitions are clarified, everything becomes much more intuitive and actionable. We’re continuing to improve onboarding and guidance here so teams get to that point faster.

Also appreciate you calling out the initial questions around data accuracy. In most cases, it comes down to transparency in how metrics are calculated, and we’re putting more effort into making that clearer directly in the product.

If there’s anything we can do to make this even more valuable for your team, we’re always open to feedback.

Thanks again for the trust.

"Finally a Clear ROI Layer for AI in Engineering"
What do you like best about Waydev?

What stands out is how Waydev connects AI adoption to real business outcomes, not just activity metrics. We can see which developers and teams are actively using AI tools, but more importantly, how that translates into faster delivery, shorter review cycles, and higher throughput. The dashboards are clear and leadership-friendly, which makes it easy to communicate progress and ROI without digging through raw data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Waydev?

Some of the AI-related insights could benefit from more customization, especially when trying to tailor views for different stakeholders like engineering managers vs. executives. It’s powerful, but sometimes you want more flexibility out of the box. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Alex Circei of Waydev

Thank you, Alexandru, really appreciate the thoughtful feedback.

You captured exactly what we’re trying to solve. Connecting AI adoption to real business outcomes, not just activity, is at the core of how we think about engineering intelligence. It’s encouraging to see that translating into clearer ROI and better visibility for leadership.

On the customization point, you’re right. As teams mature, the need to tailor views for different stakeholders becomes critical. This is something we’re actively improving, especially with the new AI-native experience where you can generate and adapt views through natural language instead of fixed dashboards.

If you’re open to it, I’d love to connect and learn more about the specific use cases where you felt constrained. That kind of input directly shapes how we evolve the product.

Appreciate you being part of this journey.

"AI Adoption Telemetry That Proves Real Engineering Velocity Gains"
What do you like best about Waydev?

The highest value Waydev provides is moving our engineering org past vanity activity metrics. We're actively rolling out AI-assisted coding tools across the stack, and Waydev gives me hard telemetry on adoption rates mapped directly against PR cycle times, deployment frequency, and overall throughput. I don't just see who has the plugin enabled; I see the empirical delta in velocity. As a founder, the fact that I can pull these dashboards up in a board meeting to justify our SaaS spend on AI tooling—without having to build custom ETL pipelines to aggregate the data—is a massive win. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Waydev?

The out-of-the-box reporting for the AI telemetry can be a bit rigid. I want more granular control over slicing the data Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Alex Circei of Waydev

Gabriel, this is a great breakdown, thank you.

You’re pointing to the exact shift we’re seeing across engineering orgs, moving from “who is using AI” to “what measurable delta AI is actually driving.” Mapping adoption directly to PR cycle time, deploy frequency, and throughput is where the real signal is, and I’m glad that’s proving useful in your board-level conversations.

On the reporting side, your feedback is spot on. Rigid, predefined slices don’t work once teams start asking second and third order questions about the data. We’re actively addressing this with the new AI-native layer, where you can slice telemetry dynamically, down to repo, team, language, or even contributor level, without needing to preconfigure dashboards.

If you’re open to it, I’d be interested to understand what specific dimensions you want more control over. That’s exactly the level where we’re investing right now.

Appreciate you taking the time to share this.

"Optimizes Team Performance with Ease"
What do you like best about Waydev?

I use Waydev to track team performance, track the delivery, and understand bottlenecks in the development process. I appreciate the transparency it brings, allowing everyone to see how they perform compared to the rest of the team while providing managers with a high-level overview of the team's performance. I really like the contributor insights feature, as it brings a lot to 1-1 discussions and helps individuals set goals to improve their performance. Additionally, I find the breakdown of the development cycle insightful, showing where the team spends most of their time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Waydev?

I think custom reports could be more flexible, and it would be nice to have the feature to compare teams with the average of the rest of the company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Alex Circei of Waydev

Thank you for the thoughtful feedback, we really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. It's great to hear that Waydev is helping bring transparency to your team's delivery process and supporting more meaningful 1:1 conversations through contributor insights.

Your note about custom reports and comparing teams to company-wide benchmarks is very valuable. Improving flexibility in reporting and giving leaders better context across teams is something we're actively exploring as we continue evolving the platform.

Thanks again for being part of the Waydev community and helping us make the product better.

"Seamless Setup and Insightful Dashboards"
What do you like best about Waydev?

I like Waydev for providing clear visibility into our engineering organization's performance. It helps us track development activities across repositories, monitor pull request merge time, and calculate team velocity effectively. The clear quantifiable DORA matrix numbers give us great insights to cut down hidden bottlenecks. The ease of integration is a huge win, and onboarding was smooth. Once everything is set up, we get a dashboard out of the box that provides a top view of project performance, plus the ability to create custom dashboards. The dashboard also eliminates the need for manual calculations and reporting, allowing us to make actionable decisions more quickly. Adding users from the dashboard was straightforward, and we were good to go without much delay. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Waydev?

At first AI summary took enormous time to load and didn't provide much information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Alex Circei of Waydev

Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed review. We’re glad to hear that Waydev is helping you gain clear visibility into engineering performance, uncover bottlenecks through DORA metrics, and reduce manual reporting through out-of-the-box and custom dashboards. It’s great to know the onboarding and integrations felt smooth and delivered value quickly.

We also appreciate the feedback around the AI summary experience. Early on, performance and depth were not where we wanted them to be, and this is an area we’ve actively improved. Loading times and insight quality have been a strong focus for us, and we continue to iterate to make AI summaries faster, more actionable, and more context-aware.

Thanks again for the thoughtful feedback. It helps us keep pushing the product in the right direction.

"The only tool we found that makes sense of AI in engineering"
What do you like best about Waydev?

The AI visibility layer. Being able to see adoption, usage patterns, and correlate that with outcomes is incredibly powerful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Waydev?

Some of the AI-related features are evolving, but the direction is very strong. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Alex Circei of Waydev

Thank you, Anelya, really appreciate the thoughtful review.

The point you highlighted around the AI visibility layer is exactly the problem we set out to solve. Adoption alone does not matter if it is not tied to outcomes, and we are seeing more teams shift their focus from “who is using AI” to “what impact is AI actually driving.”

On your feedback regarding evolving AI features, you are absolutely right, and this is an area we are actively investing in. Over the past months we have shipped several updates, including deeper AI adoption metrics, improved correlation between AI usage and delivery outcomes, and more advanced insights into how teams are leveraging agents across the SDLC. We are also expanding our DX and feedback layer to give more context behind the numbers.

If you are open to it, I would love to walk you through what is coming next. A big part of our roadmap is making AI impact not just visible, but predictable and actionable.

Thanks again for the trust and for being part of this journey with us.

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.

"Keeping our Medical Software Development on Track"
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.

Response from Alex Circei of Waydev

Diana, thank you for sharing this, especially from a healthcare perspective.

You’re absolutely right, in environments like medical software, timelines are not just internal targets, they’re tied to compliance and real-world impact. It’s great to hear that the weekly summaries are helping you stay on top of progress without adding pressure on the engineering team. That balance is something we care a lot about.

Also really valuable to hear how you’re using Waydev to catch delays early. Identifying stalled reviews or overloaded contributors before they turn into missed deadlines is exactly where we see the biggest impact.

On historical data, that’s very fair feedback. Being able to compare against older projects, especially in regulated environments, is critical. We’re actively working on expanding historical depth and making those comparisons easier and more flexible.

If you’re open to it, I’d love to understand what kind of historical benchmarks would be most useful for your team.

Thanks again for the trust and for taking the time to write this.
