Haven't used 15five, although it looks to me like a report form for weekly challenges, issues and so on - Text-based, way longer to fill in, yet probably more detailed.

Retroospect on a basic usage takes like 15 seconds to fill weekly and only tracks 5 basic data points, allows anonymity and produces charts, breakdown reports, etc... it's a more lightweight product, demands less from users and cost less - quite different kettle of fish.

In my experience teams tend to stop using products that demand too much after little time unless you enforce their use, although these tools are probably a better choice if you want in depth reports.

Great feedback, thank you!

You can create anonymous teams, also the unhappy face would be only a preview, since you can segment individual user charts (Even anonymised) into 5 different data points and events that have been tracked and locate problems quite efficiently.

We use it in our small distributed team (Transparently) and it helps us figuring our when we have an issue worth discussing in depth.

You can anonymise it on larger teams and use it to figure out what actions may have made your team less happy, etc..

Try to use with maximised window - it's a bug that happens when trying to draw on a window that's too small

Regarding this, does anyone have tips on how best to do curses layouts that support different window sizes? I'm working on a procedurally generated console game in my free time, using Python + curses, and this is an issue I run into as well.

I've been considering taking some time to try to write some sort of "fluid" or "dynamic" layout framework for curses (i.e. specify percents for width / height, and have it automatically expand). Seems like a giant pain though...

That worked perfectly for me, thanks!
