How to See Velocity for Multiple ZenHub Workspaces in One View
Managing multiple ZenHub workspaces? Learn how to aggregate your sprint velocity and metrics for a bird's eye view of your team.
Seeing Velocity for Multiple ZenHub Workspaces
If your project is large enough, it’s likely split across multiple repositories. You might have a "Mobile App" workspace, a "Backend API" workspace, and a "Web Dashboard" workspace.
ZenHub is excellent for managing these individually. However, if you are the manager over all three, you have a problem: How do you see the total team velocity for the entire project?
The Multi-Tab Struggle
Native ZenHub reporting allows you to see velocity one workspace at a time. This forces you to:
- Open Workspace A -> Look at Velocity.
- Open Workspace B -> Look at Velocity.
- Open Workspace C -> Look at Velocity.
- Manually add them up.
This is tedious and makes it impossible to see real-time trends across the whole organization.
The Solution: Aggregate Dashboards
The most efficient way to manage multi-workspace projects is to use an external analytics layer like ZenStat.
ZenStat was built specifically to solve the "Siloed Data" problem. When you use ZenStat, you can:
- Connect Unlimited Workspaces: No matter how many repos your team uses, you can link them all.
- Unified Viewing: Select any combination of workspaces to see an aggregated velocity and total "Issues Closed" count.
- Cross-Team Comparison: Instantly see which teams are hitting their targets and which might need more resources.
