The right Time In Status chart can help you answer more than one question about your workflow.

Your team completes work every week. But during the retrospective, someone inevitably asks: “Could we deliver faster? How can we improve our workflow? Are there any bottlenecks we could eliminate?”

The Time In Status widget in Great Gadgets for Azure DevOps shows how long work items spend in each state, helping you identify time-consuming stages and potential bottlenecks in your workflow. View total or average time spent in each state, and break down the results by assignee, project, priority, or other fields to uncover patterns and pinpoint opportunities for improvement.

Use these views to choose a state worth discussing. Inspect the work items behind the result, ask what happened, and agree on a next step.

Someone has room to start a new Jira task. Before they do, check what’s already waiting in progress.

At your next daily meeting, ask:

🔎 What is stuck? Which items have spent longer than expected in a status or board column?
🧱 What is blocking it? Open one aging item and find out why it has stopped moving.
🤝 What can we finish together? Could someone help complete a review, resolve a dependency, or finish the item?

The WIP Aging Chart in Great Gadgets for Jira helps you spot which item needs attention. Pick one, agree on the action that will move it forward today, and give that action an owner.

Your release date stayed the same. Your scope didn’t. Is the plan still realistic?

When work is added mid-release, progress alone won’t tell the full story. Look at three signals together:

📈 Scope: Has the total work increased since the release began?
📉 Remaining work: How much is still open against the current scope?
📅 Forecast: At the recent delivery pace, where does the estimated finish fall relative to the planned date?

A forecast isn’t a promise. It’s a starting point for deciding whether to adjust scope, priorities, or timing.

The Release Burndown Burnup Chart in Great Gadgets for Azure DevOps brings these views into one dashboard, giving your team a clearer starting point for its next release review.

Velocity or throughput? Which delivery metric should your Jira team track?

Velocity shows how much estimated work a team completes. Throughput shows how many work items reach Done during a selected period. Both are useful, but they answer different questions.

In our latest article, we explore:

📊 When to use velocity, throughput, or both
⚙️ How to track them with native Jira reports
🔍 The limitations of Jira native reports
📈 How more configurable gadgets can provide deeper insights and context for velocity and throughput

Whether you work with Scrum, Kanban, SAFe, or ITSM, choosing the right metric starts with the question you want your dashboard to answer.

One release can span several Jira teams or projects. Your reporting should not be split across several dashboards

Great Gadgets for Jira brings all the important release metrics together in one live dashboard:

📉 Scope, progress, milestones and forecasted ETA
🧮 Completion, remaining work and custom KPIs
📊 Progress broken down by teams, projects, epics or initiatives
⏳ Aging work items and WIP trends
🔄 Flow, velocity and each team’s contribution
📈 Quality metrics, bug trend

Need to focus on one team or project?

Use the Great Gadgets Controller to apply a saved preset or custom JQL filter across compatible gadgets on the same dashboard. Move from the complete release picture to the team view you need without creating and maintaining a separate dashboard for every team.

One release. One dashboard. One version of the truth.
