Pros
The programmability is amazing and it generates the perfect reports as needed as well as the simplicity and ease of use makes it my first choice.
Is great that you can set up a Board so quickly and integrate it with Github super easily, epics are probably one of the best features.
Great product that is central to our engineering workflow.
Cons
I always have to refresh my my page severally before I can see update in different column of my workflow which sometimes can be time wasting and frustrating.
Overall this is the single worst SAAS product I have used in my entire life.
I don't like that it's limited to kanban. You can't have different boards for teams within your repo (or I haven't figured out how) so you're all working off the same board.

The only solution for teams that depend on GitHub

Reviewed 3 years ago

We started using it in our dev teams (most of the company), but it worked so well, that we extended its use to Marketing, Finance and HR. We even created empty repos in GitHub, so that those teams can have their own boards. The cost is reasonable and we ended up with a powerful collaboration tool on shared artifacts (GitHub) and a basic, but sufficient task/project management tool (ZenHub). We even cancelled our Aha! Subscription, because we had simple product needs and the Roadmap feature, in combination with epics was enough for us.

Pros

Ingenious way to bypass the issue of GitHub's poor API and data model, that makes it practically impossible for any integration to offer true value, with minimal overhead. It has just enough features to make our life easy, with minimal overhead.

Cons

Sometimes (rarely) updates may get lost, when done via ZenHub. You do need to open the GitHub project occasionally, as you don't have exactly the same ability to modify issues and milestones from within ZenHub.

Nice connection to github

Reviewed 4 years ago

We use ZenHub to represent our backlog and workflow. It has epics and individual issues on the board.

Pros

It has the same product management column set up that most PM tools have. One advantage I've seen over other PM softwares is that you can put epics in other epics. This allows you to put multiple epics into one epic to represent a bigger piece of work.

Cons

I don't like that it's limited to kanban. You can't have different boards for teams within your repo (or I haven't figured out how) so you're all working off the same board. There aren't specific boards for sprints so you could set up columns to represent your sprint but it's not as easy as something like Jira.

Vendor response

Hello, Thank you for the kind words and feedback on ZenHub. You mentioned having a hard time setting up multiple board views on the same GitHub Repo and wanted to help. We recently launched ZenHub Workspaces which gives different teams the ability to customize their board view when working from the same set of GitHub Repositories. Here's how to set up your first Workspace: https://help.zenhub.com/support/solutions/articles/43000497224-creating-your-first-workspace If you run into any trouble please feel free to reach out to support or myself at any time (support@zenhub.com). Thank you for being a ZenHub customer!

ZenHub: the successful GitHub Project Management Plugin

Reviewed 10 months ago

Very good addition to the great GitHub CVS

Pros

The project scheduling and management features are very advanced and sometimes surpassing leading project management software on the market. It is compatible with GitHub and hence is oriented towards software projects. The enterprise version provides a rich collection of collaborative tools for developers which adds to those available in GitHub. Tasks can be created and maintained very flexibly with very intuitive GUI interaction. Being the project management missing part in GitHub, ZenHub is a perfect synergy for collaborative project management for large scale software projects. Tracking software issues and bugs is very facilitated as well. But again we rely on GitHub to do such management tasks.

Cons

The price is a bit high for large scale projects. A more flexible licensing strategy could be more appealing. Some GUI bugs show here and there but the developers are very actively responding to bug reports.

Easiest to use for scrum/kanban

Reviewed 2 years ago
Pros

This has been a tank in my project management arsenal. The simplicity and integrations available with Zenhub are amazing. It's easy to catch on and integrate with the team. U can have multiple boards and have tickets sync across multiple boards based on how you have programmed it. I use this as the first option for any new project I take on. U can set up feature tickets or bug tickets from the support board to automatically go into dev boards and sync with the product road map board. The programmability is amazing and it generates the perfect reports as needed as well as the simplicity and ease of use makes it my first choice.

Cons

I have nothing to say but good words about zenhub.

Integrate ZenHub With GitHub Now

Reviewed 9 months ago

Great experience. Definitely suggest other companies to try ZenHub.

Pros

Seamless integration with GitHub makes this product a no brained for our team!

Cons

Product can be slow but also may be due to the size of our boards.
