Metrics Community Benchmarks
LinearB is using its community benchmarks in order to provide a ‘traffic light’ estimation regarding the quality of specific metrics. LinearB is collecting metrics values from all the teams in its community. Teams with different sizes from various sectors and verticals. Based on the metrics values in all LinearB community teams we define 4 categories of quality :
- Dark Green - Elite - Top 25% of LinearB community
- Green - Good - 25 percentile to 50 percentile of LinearB community
- Orange - Fair - 50 percentile to 75 percentile of LinearB community
- Red - Needs improvement - bottom 25%
Some of the metrics benchmarks are based on and influenced by the size of the team. Other metrics are not dependent on team size.
