Verified G2 Review
“The customer support has been fantastic. Integrations are easy to set up and manage and we have been able to use the interconnected data to drive internal conversations about team dynamic and workload much more effectively. Being able to view datasets across both time periods and named Sprints is a real bonus.”

Jonathan Hewer
VP of Engineering, Happeo
“Technology delivery was an area that lacked a ‘balanced scorecard’ of metrics to share with the C-suite. Plandek provides those metrics whilst also enabling the delivery team (from squad level upwards) to optimise around the metrics that I care about. As such it is tremendously powerful.”
