Don’t be limited by your engineering metrics solution. DX expertly brings together more data sources and gives you full control over your data, so you can get the complete picture.
Getting data is one thing - capturing the right metrics is another. DX was designed by leading researchers to provide a complete view of developer productivity and drive the right actions.

Customers
"When we had to weigh the two choices, it became apparent that the harder - and more important problem to solve - was capturing developer sentiment, which is DX’s sweet spot. Given that DX could also provide the top-down metrics, the decision was easy."
"Over the course of the last year it’s been impressive how DX has become part of daily conversation."
"It’s just made my role so much easier. I don’t have to spend time going out and trying to find the information I want. DX gives me that information and helps us define our roadmap. Without it, it would be quite difficult to get that feedback."
"We found that the other vendors looked at qualitative data as an afterthought, whereas DX puts the qualitative data at the forefront and uses quantitative data to give you more context."
"I haven’t been successful in any metric or measurement until DX, and I’ve run a lot of engineering departments in a lot of different companies and countries. For me now, I don’t know if I’m going to be able to run an engineering department without DX."
"Before introducing DX, we used another quantitative metrics solution. It was very difficult to go from a metric to an action, like how do we drive improvements on this area. That’s what DX did for us — it helps close that loop. It’s easier to understand not just what is happening but also why."
"For me as an engineering manager, Frontline is a dashboard I can glance at to see what work is being done, what’s blocked, and what’s not happening. I like to use it every day and I know the devs are using it every day."
"The best product I’ve purchased in my career. If you want your engineering organization to be effective and efficient, DX will help your engineers report the issues, prioritize what to fix, and you can see the fruits of your labor over time."
"We didn’t know how much we were missing until we brought DX in. Now, it’s fundamental to the business, and we could not see ourselves operating without it anymore."
