"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.

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.

"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.

"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.

Response from Alex Circei of Waydev

We're glad to hear that you find our automated emails helpful in staying on top of your team's performance metrics.

"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?

Nothing so far though a public roadmap and more developer evangelism would be beneficial Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Alex Circei of Waydev

Thank you for your positive feedback! We're glad to hear that Waydev is providing valuable data points for managing engineering efforts. We appreciate your suggestion for a public roadmap and more developer evangelism, and we'll take that into consideration for future improvements.

"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.

Response from Alex Circei of Waydev

We're glad to hear that Waydev has been helpful in bringing more quantitative data to your sprint retrospectives and one on ones. It's great to know that it's helping to paint a better story of throughput and providing valuable insights.

"Waydev helped us be a lot more efficient by providing insight into the software development process"
5/5
What do you like best about Waydev?

There are many things I like about the platform, but the one I like best must be that it truly improved the efficiency of my team. We didn’t exactly know where we could improve as a team, until we got Waydev. It gave us a lot of insight into what’s working well, and what’s not, so it gave us the power to perform better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Waydev?

They did a great job, actually. Can't think of anything I don't like about the platform. If I have to nit pick I would love to learn how to make use of the charts within the app (some kind of learning center). But their awesome success team covered that pretty well.

Nothing really, super communicative and supportive. Great insights for me and my managers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Waydev is a big time saver for a busy engineering leader."
5/5
What do you like best about Waydev?

What I like most about Waydev are the DORA Metrics. I was really interested into zooming into our Change Failure Rate and Lead Time, and Waydev pulls them in automatically.

I’m also a big fan of the new Custom Dashboards feature because I like to have full control over what I see in my dashboard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Waydev?

There is nothing that bothered us with the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great Developer Team Insights with outstanding Customer Support"
5/5
What do you like best about Waydev?

We have recently switched from a competitor developer analytics tool to Waydev and are super happy and impressed by its quality. In general, we see 4 big arguments for Waydev:

1.) The content they provide via mail and blog is great. I was reading it already for a long time before deciding to go with Waydev, and it was also the main reason why I decided to give it a try.

2.) They provide more KPIs than its competitors and seem to be the leading platform in this regard / have the highest product development speed. Here, I was rather disappointed by our previous tool, which seemed to be stuck for ~2 years after it got acquired by a bigger company.

3.) I just learnt after using Waydev how valuable it is to connect your CI pipeline to your KPIs. The combination of Git-hosting provider (Gitlab / Github), Jira / ticketing system and CI pipeline is really awesome and gives you the possibility to track your DORA metrics (if you don't know what it is, check Waydev's blog).

4.) Last but certainly not least, Waydev has outstanding customer support with super fast response times. But not only do they respond fast (and even the Head of Customer Success is reaching out), they also act fast. I had a few questions during my onboarding, and they were even able to speed up the connection of my repositories to make the onboarding smoother. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Waydev?

The onboarding process was tricky. You need to start configuring your git hosting provider with all the repositories you want to use, you need to get an access token to your Jira system, and then you need to connect your CI pipeline tool. Although I was used to it, it took some time to go through. But the good thing is that the support was actively helping me during the process and as described above, was even able to speed up processes. And in comparison, the tool we were using before was even more complicated, so the onboarding is already much better than the competition :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
