Clear visibility into AI Adoption, finally tied to real outcomes
What do you like best about the product?
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.

The AI-driven insights and the ability to ask questions directly in the platform instead of building dashboards manually is a big step forward.
What do you dislike about the product?
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.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Waydev is solving our lack of visibility across teams and helping us move away from subjective evaluations. We now have a consistent way to measure engineering performance, identify bottlenecks, and improve planning accuracy.
It also helps in leadership conversations. Instead of debating opinions, we can rely on data when discussing team performance, investment allocation, or delivery risks. This has improved both execution and alignment between engineering and business stakeholders.

AI Adoption Telemetry That Proves Real Engineering Velocity Gains
What do you like best about the product?
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.
What do you dislike about the product?
The out-of-the-box reporting for the AI telemetry can be a bit rigid. I want more granular control over slicing the data
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We had a "black box" problem with AI tooling ROI. Half the engineering team swore it 10x'd their output, while others were skeptical, and our release cadence looked relatively flat. It was entirely anecdotal. Waydev gives us a standardized observability layer across our repositories. We can now scientifically correlate AI tool utilization with actual merge rates and cycle time compression. It allows me to allocate capital efficiently—we know exactly where to double down on AI licenses and where we need to invest in developer training instead. It forced alignment between engineering and leadership using a single source of truth.
Finally a Clear ROI Layer for AI in Engineering
What do you like best about the product?
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.
What do you dislike about the product?
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.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before Waydev, AI adoption was mostly anecdotal. Some teams claimed big gains, others were skeptical, and we had no consistent way to measure impact. Now we have a unified view across the organization. We can track adoption trends, correlate them with performance improvements, and make informed decisions about where to invest more in AI tooling or training. It has helped us align engineering and leadership around a common, data-backed narrative.
The only tool we found that makes sense of AI in engineering
What do you like best about the product?
The AI visibility layer. Being able to see adoption, usage patterns, and correlate that with outcomes is incredibly powerful.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the AI-related features are evolving, but the direction is very strong.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We can now justify investments in AI tooling with actual data. It helps us double down on what works and eliminate what doesn’t.
Extremely Useful for Boosting Individual and Team Productivity
What do you like best about the product?
It is an extremely useful tool to have access to various levels of productivity at an individual level and team level.
What do you dislike about the product?
I did a lot of data entry outside of waydev to create my own charts.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Waydev helped me identify areas of performance improvement within the organization.
Optimizes Team Performance with Ease
What do you like best about the product?
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.
What do you dislike about the product?
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.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Waydev to track team performance, understand development bottlenecks, and gain transparency in the team. I like contributor insights for improving individual performance and appreciate the breakdown of the development cycle for better time management.
Seamless Setup and Insightful Dashboards
What do you like best about the product?
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.
What do you dislike about the product?
At first AI summary took enormous time to load and didn't provide much information.

Excellent Engineering Insights and Support, Seamless Integration
What do you like best about the product?
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.
What do you dislike about the product?
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.

Keeping our Medical Software Development on Track
What do you like best about the product?
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.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish we could pull historical data from further back to compare older projects.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We catch delays early now. If a review is stalled or someone is overloaded, we see it right away and fix it. That's helped us hit release dates more consistently and keep compliance docs in order.
