# Productivity analytics
DETAILS:
**Tier:** Premium, Ultimate
**Offering:** GitLab.com, Self-managed, GitLab Dedicated
You can use productivity analytics to identify:
- Your development velocity based on how long it takes for a merge request to merge.
- The most time consuming merge requests and potential causes.
- Authors, labels, or milestones with the longest time to merge, or most changes.
Use productivity analytics to view the following merge request statistics for your groups:
- Amount of time between merge request creation and merge.
- Amount of time between commits, comments, and merge.
- Complexity of changes, like number of lines of code per commit and number of files.
To view merge request data for projects, use [Merge request analytics](../analytics/merge_request_analytics.md).
