Is it possible to define and visualize new metrics (e.g. ratios) in dashboard widgets in Azure DevOp
Hey Paul_Sanders1000
I noticed that you also had requests in this http:// https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/azure-devops/velocity-dashboard-widget-showing-totals-for-multiple-teams/m-p/3720595 surrounding velocity. We should be able to help with this at minware using our marketplace integration. Our tool automatically calculates velocity at the task level -- we don't have some of the ratios that you are asking for available today, but we would be happy to build those out for you if you want to share more about your requirements.
Thanks meghanlaclair . Though I was hoping to stay with existing Azure Devops widgets (or those already in the market place) rather than new widgets. We would probably use Power BI rather than develop new widgets.
- Hey Paul_Sanders1000 - there is a new emerging market for engineering analytics and if you are thinking about DIY in-house you should at least take a look at some of the 3rd party services that are out there. Most are plug and play and the market exists for a reason -- ongoing maintenance will cost way more than you think and it's another project to manage that gets very complicated as headcounts and workstreams change.
Happy to provide guidance about which services are worth evaluating if you want to reach out!
