Project Analytics in Nexus

Nexus provides a comprehensive analytics section for every project, helping teams track progress, identify bottlenecks, and optimize performance. These reports offer valuable insights into task distribution, user workload, and project timelines.


👥 User Repartition: Who’s Handling What?

This pie chart displays the number of open tasks assigned to each user in a project.

✔ Helps identify workload distribution across team members.
✔ Ensures tasks are evenly allocated to prevent overload.


📌 Task Distribution: Overview of Tasks in Columns

This report provides a visual representation of tasks in different workflow stages.

✔ A pie chart shows the number of open tasks in each column (To Do, In Progress, Done, etc.).
✔ Useful for understanding task progress and backlog at a glance.


📈 Cumulative Flow Diagram: Tracking Workflow Over Time

This chart helps track workflow stability and project progress.

✔ Shows how many tasks are in each column over time.
Automatically assigns colors to different columns for easy understanding.
✔ Helps identify bottlenecks by showing where tasks pile up.

🔹 Data Collection:

  • The number of tasks in each column is recorded daily.
  • A minimum of two days of data is required to generate this graph.
  • Closed tasks can be excluded from reports in project settings.

🔥 Burn Down Chart: Measuring Work Completion

The burn down chart visually represents work left to complete over time.

✔ Uses complexity points or story points to measure progress.
✔ The system calculates the total story points for each column daily.
✔ Helps teams predict completion dates and adjust workload accordingly.


⏳ Average Time Spent in Each Column: Efficiency Tracking

This report measures how long tasks remain in each stage before moving forward.

✔ Tracks the last 1,000 tasks to calculate average time per column.
✔ Uses task transition records to measure how long a task stays in a column.
✔ Helps teams optimize workflow and reduce delays.

🔹 How it Works:

  • The system monitors when a task moves between columns.
  • The time spent is counted until the task is marked as completed.

📊 Average Lead & Cycle Time: Measuring Task Completion Speed

This report tracks the average time taken to complete tasks over time.

Lead Time: The time between task creation and completion.
Cycle Time: The time between task start date and completion.
✔ Helps in predicting project timelines and improving efficiency.

🔹 Key Points:

  • Metrics are recorded daily for the entire project.
  • If a task is not completed, the current date is used for calculations.
