Uplevel Releases New Features to Empower Remote Engineering Teams
Summary
“At the office, engineering teams used to worry about physical interruptions and in-person meetings, which forced them to context switch to keep up,” said Joe Levy, co-founder and CEO, Uplevel. “Now, due to increased digital interruptions from work and physical distractions from home, teams are context switching more than ever. Isolation Identification – Maintaining a healthy team connection Without the ability to catch up while making a cup of coffee or stop by a colleague’s office for in-person interactions, cross-team collaboration and managed work dependencies can suffer. Throughput – Getting Work Done With the added stress of a pandemic and new obligations such as homeschooling, developers may find that some tasks are taking longer than they did in the office. Uplevel measures the numbers of PRs and median review time, as well as PR and Jira cycle time, so that teams can identify changes to work productivity and make more flexible team support plans to allow everyone to balance work and life more effectively.
