I did a trial in 2018 and liked the product a lot. There were some simple metrics like "does a developer commit code every business day" and "how long do your PRs sit waiting for review". Other more complex things they produced from the git log were statistics about churn (how often you touch the same code), and new code vs. refactoring vs. bug fixing.

Overall, I thought they handled the "you can't make metrics for developers" type objections fairly well. To get everyone on the dev team engaged and thinking about their metrics seemed like too big of a hurdle given the cost per seat of GitPrime.
