Features
What actually is it?
Kanbanana Analytics
Built from the ground up for agile software delivery, Kanbanana comes from the words kanban and banana.Why Kanban?
Kanban is a visual, pull-based strategy for optimising the flow of value. It stems from the Toyota Production System and is now widely used in software development.
Why Banana?
We use a banana to symbolise the age of work items. As items age, they change colour from green to yellow to black, just like bananas.
Why Kanbanana?
Agile software development is people-centric and we want to give teams the tools they need to succeed in delivering more value sooner.
Foster Effective Collaboration
Give your teams the triggers for meaningful collaboration throughout the development process.
Save time in Estimation
Move away from legacy concepts like story points, and move to an efficient saving forecasting approach.
Forecast the Future
Run simulations to see when work can be completed and how much work can be completed. Forecast delivery for multiple teams, taking into account dependencies between them.
Unlock the power of your Atlassian Jira data
Your Jira instances contain lots of useful data, but it is hard to get at and hard to interpret. We synchronised the useful data automatically from Jira and help you analyse it.
Access for Everyone
All your team members can access their data without needing individual licenses. We don't price according to how many users you are licenced for in Jira.
Innovative + Simple
Easy to understand and use for everybody on your team. We use Jira-like cards and Excel-like grids to present data in an intuitive way.
Customisable Platform
Everyone uses Jira differently. We can customise things just for you and ensure that data you need is surfaced.
Support and Training
We are here to support you on your flow metrics journey. We can train you in the use of the tools and concepts.
