Besides what others have commented, I'd like to point some more metrics that help you model your board: - Task classes. - Lead time. - Cycle time. - Number of backward movements for any list. - Cumulative card evolution. There are some good books about this subject: - David J. Anderson's Kanban (https://www.amazon.com/Kanban-Successful-Evolutionary-Technology-Business/dp/0984521402/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1490549174&sr=1-1&keywords=kanban+david+anderson https://www.amazon.com/Kanban-Successful-Evolutionary-Techno...) - Actionable Agile Metrics for Predictability: An Introduction (https://www.amazon.com/Actionable-Agile-Metrics-Predictability-Introduction/dp/098643633X https://www.amazon.com/Actionable-Agile-Metrics-Predictabili...) Shameless plug: checkout my personal project DjangoTrelloStats that measures these metrics for you: https://github.com/diegojromerolopez/django-trello-stats https://github.com/diegojromerolopez/django-trello-stats (include a somewhat Trello synchronization tool).
