About ZenHub

Zenhub is an industry-leading project management and productivity platform best suited for software-led startups and scaleups with agile software development teams. Open-source projects and high-growth companies who manage code in GitHub leverage Zenhub to build and ship better code faster. Zenhub connects the dots across all teams with automated agile features, real-time roadmap visibility, and team productivity insights by providing an extra layer of organization, transparency, and collaboration beyond what GitHub offers.

Zenhub facilitates agile ceremonies (sprints, epics, estimates) and processes within GitHub and helps teams manage projects with less overhead and interruptions that lead to context-switching. Zenhub’s unified workflows, visualization tools, and roadmaps improve communication and alignment between developers and business stakeholders, enabling asynchronous work and reducing the need for meetings. Software-centric organizations use Zenhub’s unified view of a project’s progress to stay aligned and work towards a common goal.

Zenhub’s workflow automation includes automated sprint planning and hand-offs and asynchronous and effortless estimations through Planning...

Poker. Zenhub helps development teams maintain focus, improve velocity, and ship projects in scope and on time by automating mundane, repetitive tasks. Zenhub’s comprehensive suite of reports includes velocity reports, burndown charts, control charts, cumulative flow, release reports, and others. Using a team’s historical data and productivity metrics benchmarks, Zenhub derives insights on the average cycle time, anomalies, sprint progress, and development team’s velocity. When used in tandem with pre-configured reports, productivity insights can be a powerful tool for organizations to see their software development team’s productivity metrics at a glance. Zenhub is flexible and competitively priced to help teams stay within scope and budget. With a choice of interfaces — web app and browser extension — and zero-config, Zenhub simplifies the onboarding process for development teams.

The only solution for teams that depend on GitHub

5

We started using it in our dev teams (most of the company), but it worked so well, that we extended its use to Marketing, Finance and HR. We even created empty repos in GitHub, so that those teams can have their own boards. The cost is reasonable and we ended up with a powerful collaboration tool on shared artifacts (GitHub) and a basic, but sufficient task/project management tool (ZenHub). We even cancelled our Aha! Subscription, because we had simple product needs and the Roadmap feature, in combination with epics was enough for us.

Pros:
Ingenious way to bypass the issue of GitHub's poor API and data model, that makes it practically impossible for any integration to offer true value, with minimal overhead. It has just enough features to make our life easy, with minimal overhead.
Cons:
Sometimes (rarely) updates may get lost, when done via ZenHub. You do need to open the GitHub project occasionally, as you don't have exactly the same ability to modify issues and milestones from within ZenHub.

Reasons for choosing ZenHub

None of them solved much at all, for a company that relies so much on GitHub. With ZenHub we don't have to worry about issue duplication, manual overhead, issues with bidirectional synchronization, integrations only with PRs, looking for the source of truth and many more issues I identified during the evaluation/selection process.

We use ZenHub to represent our backlog and workflow. It has epics and individual issues on the board.

Pros:
It has the same product management column set up that most PM tools have. One advantage I've seen over other PM softwares is that you can put epics in other epics. This allows you to put multiple epics into one epic to represent a bigger piece of work.
Cons:
I don't like that it's limited to kanban. You can't have different boards for teams within your repo (or I haven't figured out how) so you're all working off the same board. There aren't specific boards for sprints so you could set up columns to represent your sprint but it's not as easy as something like Jira.

Reasons for switching to ZenHub

I made the switch because I switched companies.

Vendor Response

Hello, Thank you for the kind words and feedback on ZenHub. You mentioned having a hard time setting up multiple board views on the same GitHub Repo and wanted to help. We recently launched ZenHub Workspaces which gives different teams the ability to customize their board view when working from the same set of GitHub Repositories. Here's how to set up your first Workspace: https://help.zenhub.com/support/solutions/articles/43000497224-creating-your-first-workspace If you run into any trouble please feel free to reach out to support or myself at any time (support@zenhub.com). Thank you for being a ZenHub customer!

Pros:
I love how this software takes an existing feature (i.e. GitHub issue) and literally supercharges it, giving it new scope and meaning. It lets you organize work in a fast, reliable and effective way with teams of any sizes. I’ve been using it with a small team of web developers and it really changed for the better the way we plan our sprints and how well we communicate progress to other stakeholders.
Cons:
The learning curve might seem a bit steep, you need to become familiar with how GitHub features like issues and labels map to concepts like milestones and epics, but once you get the gist of it you are going to love this software.

Pros:
This has been a tank in my project management arsenal. The simplicity and integrations available with Zenhub are amazing. It's easy to catch on and integrate with the team. U can have multiple boards and have tickets sync across multiple boards based on how you have programmed it. I use this as the first option for any new project I take on. U can set up feature tickets or bug tickets from the support board to automatically go into dev boards and sync with the product road map board. The programmability is amazing and it generates the perfect reports as needed as well as the simplicity and ease of use makes it my first choice.
Cons:
I have nothing to say but good words about zenhub.

Seamless planning layer for GitHub issues

We're using ZenHub to organize and manage the code development inside of GitHub. We use Chrome / FireFox plugins to add the ZenHub layer directly into GitHub.

Pros:
1. It works seamlessly on of the original GitHub site (via the Chrome / FireFox plugin). 2. It provides the detailed guide not only on how to use the tools but on how to manage agile projects in general. 3. It provides a really slick and well-thought interface and usability experience.
Cons:
There are some details that I wish would be improved: 1. I wish that sub-issues of an Epic could be ordered (when planning viewing them in the proper order is important). 2. I miss the ability to add automated actions, like: 2.1. Move issue to a certain pipeline when a code review is requested 2.2. Move issue to a certain pipeline when a code review is approved 2.3. Switch issue to a certain assignee when moved to a pipeline 4. ZenHub provides the "Done" pipeline, but the issues there are not actually counted as "done" in the reports. 3. Now ZenHub allows viewing issues as a pop-up in the pipelines. I wish the same experience would be available from the Epic planning board.

Pros:
The code of my team lives in github so therefore, so do my developers. We used JIRA for change and defect management but developers found it tedious. Not so with github.
Cons:
The UI has some inconsistencies that annoy me: * Text fields do not store their value unless you press update, but things like dropdowns update as soon as you release the mouse. It makes me uncertain: did this particular change take or not. * The close button puts the ticket in the closed state (in addition to closing the window) but does not pop up a message that it basically says we're done, nor asks to specify anything. Especially in the beginning, this made it far too easy to remove tickets from the board by mistake.

Pros:
Zenhub is integrated with Github and thus enable me access this program with my Github login. It also provides me with an intuitive layout to monitor the progress of projects I manage. I have also skipped using Jira and depended fully on Zenhub to delegate tasks to my team members at work ,and for disaster recovery management.
Cons:
Zenhub's user interface is very much clumsy and takes time to get used to. It also renders my Github page unusable ,while it is active.
