# Proactive Issue Detection (Engineering Insights)

### Spot Problems Before They Become Bottlenecks

Instead of overwhelming dashboards and vague metrics, Oobeya highlights what truly matters: **the bottlenecks slowing down your teams**. From [unreviewed pull requests ](/team-insights-and-symptoms/symptoms-catalog/s9-unreviewed-pull-requests.md)to [high lead times](/team-insights-and-symptoms/symptoms-catalog/s12-high-lead-time-for-changes-dora.md), Symptoms proactively surface engineering issues, along with actionable recommendations to fix them.

#### **Stop guesswork — get instant visibility into real problems**

Symptoms automatically surface issues like delayed reviews, excessive rework, or low-quality code, so you don’t need to dig through dashboards or reports.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### **Move from metrics to meaningful actions**

Each symptom includes contextual insights and tailored improvement suggestions — enabling your teams to act quickly and effectively.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### **Empower teams to take ownership of their delivery**

Teams see their signals in real-time, understand what needs attention, and develop a habit of continuous improvement without micromanagement.
