Frequently Asked Questions about Valven vs LinearB
How is Valven different from LinearB?
Valven focuses on understanding what is happening across the entire software delivery lifecycle and turning that into actionable decisions. It does not stop at visibility, it identifies risks, explains root causes, and recommends what to do next.
Does Valven support on-premises installation?
Yes. Valven Enterprise offers an on-premises installation option for organizations that require full data sovereignty and control over their infrastructure.
Does Valven replace traditional engineering metrics?
No. It uses them, but does not rely on them. Metrics alone often create a false sense of control because they summarize complex systems into averages. Valven analyzes patterns, anomalies, and context behind those metrics to produce insights you can act on.
Can Valven detect problems before they impact delivery?
Yes. Instead of reporting what already happened, Valven identifies early signals such as review bottlenecks, risky commits, or hidden delays. This allows teams to intervene before issues turn into missed deadlines or production problems.
Will Valven require changing how teams work?
No. It integrates with existing tools and workflows. The goal is not to enforce a new process, but to make the current system visible and understandable so teams can improve it based on real insights rather than assumptions.
