What is FishEye (Legacy)?

Slightly frustrating at times but generally good tool for doing code reviews. The most frustrating thing is the slowness of the UI. However, if you use chrome (like most developers) it not that bad. It does a fair job at VCS integration but will start to breakdown if you have a large number of repositories. Our solution to that issue was to separate our VCS systems into multiple instances of FishEye. Overall I think its a good tool but there could definitely be some improvements.

Performance of FishEye (Legacy) Across Market Features

FishEye (Legacy) Likes & Dislikes

Ease of use Simple to Install Navigation is easy

How easy it is to pull changes from a Repo and generate a code review in Crucible minutes after committing the source changes.

The context viewing mechanism is the best part which allowed to see every code patch uploaded and also code in % context. It also differentiates the new(green) code and removed(red) code by coloring ways.

Support can be slow at times. More documentation for configuring the app.

Performance is lacking.

Fisheye doesn't set the context of code to head from start set when new patch is added, it shows from the latest patch.
