VIRTUAL TEAM GUARDIAN_
Automation of permission management
kustodian_ lets you centrally define roles on your projects and maps them to specific permissions in every dev tool you use. Once you set them up, on/off-boarding is just a click away! Automate and speed up various background supporting processes related to daily work. On-boarding long waiting time is finally over!
Eliminate all non-value-added activities such as granting permissions to different dev tools and creating different types of resources, but be able to easily access all changes that are done.
Unlike current workarounds in which developers wait for a couple of days (or even months) to get all permissions they need, with kustodian_, that time will be reduced to seconds.
Some of the dev tools currently manageable by kustodian_ include GitLab, Confluence, Jira, Kibana, SonarQube, Kubernetes, and OpenShift. The list of dev tools is continuously updated.
First developer experience lifted on a new level
Invisible automation and virtual support for newcomers and the team are at the core of kustodian_ vision. Improve developer experience by including everyone needed in the onboarding process, and let us help you become an employee-first company!
We discovered that newcomers have many “small” concerns and insecurities, which, when sumed up –are not small at all! New environment, challenges and tasks, new organizational culture, and of course, a lot of new colleagues.
kustodian_ provides just the right amount of valuable information to keep track of personal development and team routines but also enables smooth and invisible onboarding to all the projects.
Enhance personal and development team growth
kustodian_ enables the personal growth of each team member and the whole development team by gathering all the information in one place. Cherish teams’ focus and balance by providing so-needed glue between the social and operational perspectives.
Team culture and professional growth opportunities are must-haves. Being aware of the existing strengths and weaknesses is the first step to fulfilling personal potential. To continuously provide the best developer experience in your team and company, automation alone is not enough.
kustodian_ can be your starting point in team evaluation, checkpoints, and feedback loops to grow both professionally and personally.
Reduce risk in new challenges
With kustodian_, you can reduce insecurities and prepare for any upcoming challenges on time. Team skillset is no longer in question because all the information you need is in the palm of your hand. You can finally team up properly before the beginning of the project.
Due to fast dynamics of changing projects in the team, learning and mastering required technologies is usually very challenging. With Team Analytics, everyone can prepare in time.
On the one hand, Team leads can prepare team members in time to improve their skillset and prepare for the new challenges to come. On the other hand, Project managers can choose more wisely which team is capable of carrying out the project regarding the required technologies.
Prepared team = happy team.
EXAMPLE OF USE
EXAMPLE SCENARIOS
Check out some of the daily challenges where kustodian_ jumps in!
„When I joined my new team, the first challenge I encountered were the numerous new names to remember, roles of my colleagues in the team, and of course trying to blend in as soon as possible. I had one person on the team who was presented as my buddy. That was great! I knew I could ask him all the questions regarding administrational and project stuff. Also, access to all dev tool stack I needed was granted before I even opened my laptop so I knew I could contribute from day one.“
„Very often, procedural steps for granting permissions to new and existing team members lasted for several days. With kustodian_ we reduced it to seconds because now I can do that immediately when needed. Also, new projects and challenges which are in front of the team are no longer problems for us. Based on the data kustodian_ provides, I can easily prepare everyone for the tasks in front of us. Earlier preparations increased developer experience in my team to a new level.“
“The onboarding process is so much smoother! It takes our employer branding to a whole other level and it’s great for first impressions. The idle time spent on the onboarding process is significantly reduced, and developers go straight to creating value within their teams. Also, the idea of buddies implemented through kustodian_ is something that showed up as a great feature for our newcomers, allowing them a more relaxed first day.“
“I periodically check for all the project resources specific employee has access. kustodian_ provides a single secure location for user rights management. Like a bird’s eye view of overactive, paused, and expired licenses which save both time and money. Preparation for different security certifications is reduced, and I have more time to do other tasks.“
