Waffle.io is good product and Zube is similar. We're both web apps that sync with GitHub issues. As far as functionality, Zube gives you some things that Waffle does not:

Comments - syntax highlighting; @mentions, emojis, issue reference autocomplete; live updating from GitHub comments for things like comment updates and deletes (so your data is consistent)

Cards - Commit references, events, and card references. Consistency of data, especially when multiple users are moving cards at the same time.

Boards - add and remove users from the board

Labels - create, update, and delete labels from a repo (not just a card)

Milestones - create, update, and delete labels from a repo (not just a card)

Zube also has many UX features that differ from Waffle like each user having their own row. Creating cards in any row/column. Dedicated views for each milestone.

Waffle has some features that Zube doesn't support right now like burndown charts and search. I'm not an expert on Waffle or anything so please correct me if I'm in error. It's kinda hard to know everything that a competitor does.

Does Zube support having one board that covers multiple GitHub repos?

204NoContent|10 years ago

Waffle does this I'm pretty sure, but we don't have it yet. It's on our roadmap though!

We've had the request for multiple repos on one Zube board when talking with PMs and consulting firms and we're aware that it's important for them. However, we're laser focused on making developers happy and they've told us that they care more about managing issues for a single repository, so we implemented that first.
