Source ROI Features & Benefits

Source ROI computes and analyzes source code continuously over time, authors, and projects.

Track your development, identifying growth, churn, and stagnation. Connect metrics changes with issue-tracking data for a complete picture of project activity, progress, and life-cycle.

Source ROI integrates with the version control system, correlating source code changes with the time, commentary, and author resposible for the changes.

Custom Reporting: Project metrics are stored in a SQL database. Use arbitrary queries to build any kind of report. Many example queries and reports are provided.
Catch Problems Early: Trend-analysis shows you problems before they get out of control. When you can see where you're headed, you can change direction.
Analyze Multi-Dimensional Data: Slice data by project, file, author, date, file type, type of change, and more.
Integrate with Report-Writers: Use any report-writing software from Excel to Crystal. If you can query a database, you can build a custom report.
Version Control Integration: If you use a version control system, you already have the raw historical data. Source ROI can mine data directly from your version control system.
Hit the Ground Running: We provide a web-based reporting system, many stock reports written in Access, and example queries. Use as-is or as examples or templates for your own reports.
