Zube and Waffle are similar in the sense that we both allow developers to better organize their GitHub issues on a kanban board. The main difference between Waffle and Zube is that Zube provides many features that Waffle lacks. Zube lets team leads easily triage incoming issues with a powerful issue manager. Zube allows GitHub issues to be grouped together into a single ticket, and automatically tracks the progress of the underlying issues. Zube has story points and burndown charts. And Zube’s GitHub integration allows you to fully manage your issues, labels, and milestones, whereas Waffle’s less complete integration does not. So I guess you could say that Waffle is a simple way to visualize your GitHub issues and Zube is a project management platform for your GitHub issues.
- kvark 11y agoThank you for the extensive explanation! We'll give it a try ;)
- jenniferDewalt 11y agoAwesome! We'd love to know what you think!
- zbuttram 11y ago>> Zube’s GitHub integration allows you to fully manage your issues, labels, and milestones, whereas Waffle’s less complete integration does not. Meaning labels and milestones can be created from Zube instead of being limited to just applying already existing labels and milestones like Waffle? Can multiple repos be combined into a single board like Waffle?
- jenniferDewalt 11y agoYep, you can create, edit and delete labels and milestones from Zube. We're working on adding multiple repos to Zube boards and should have that feature out in a couple of weeks.
- samstave 11y agoWhy would one pick Zube of Jira? (I am about to implement Jira - are you mature enough to compete against Jira, thus shall I eval Zube V Jira? or diff use case?)
- jenniferDewalt 11y agoGreat question! JIRA is highly configurable so if your company has a lot of custom requirements, that might be the way to go. Zube provides a lightweight, Agile workflow out of the box designed to get you up and running fast. So it depends on your companies' needs, but if you have a development team that loves working in GitHub, Zube has better GitHub integration than JIRA.
