- There is a free plan with limitations on the number of contributors. However, the pricing model is only annual.
- Not much information on Velocity; probably still in development.
- Reports show data for the team and each member separately. Typical unproductive patterns can be identified: a large piece of code to analyze, burnout, and a lack of competencies. To do this, you need to invest some effort in integration with Jira, and this is available only in higher plans (Company+).
- There is a nice video series explaining how to analyze information. It involves having a set of hypotheses that can be confirmed by metrics and their relationships. This is helped by the ability to switch between data representations (graphs, maps, tables).
- Like many players on the market, there is a complimentary product of deeper code analysis for coverage with tests, and maintainability (whatever it means), which supports all popular programming languages. You're welcome to check devActivity - Code Climate alternative
