What users like the most

  • Jira's flexibility to adapt to various workflows and configurations allows us to tailor the software to our specific needs. We have found that Jira easily integrates with other tools, such as GitHub and Slack, enhancing the overall project management experience. Jira offers comprehensive reporting and analytics options, enabling our teams to keep track of key performance indicators and identifying areas for improvement.

What users like the least

  • Jira's high customizability may make it initially confusing for new users, and it might take some time to become familiar with the interface. For smaller teams or businesses with limited budgets, Jira can be on the higher end of the price spectrum, especially when accounting for add-ons and premium features.

Most convenient tool

Overall rating
4.0

Pros: Convenient for corporate use because of permissions and access rights. You can also create custom complex workflows and track them.

Cons: In a company, it requires an additional person who manages all these workflows, access rights, setting up rules, workflows, creating users and boards and permissions.

Overall Experience: For the purposes of tracking tasks in the sprint - it's convenient.

JIRA is great

Overall rating
5.0

Pros: As we can see then, the use of JIRA can bring several benefits to Agile teams and it really can help to improve productivity, efficiency and teamwork in general. Team members will be able to more effectively deal with their work backlog and prioritize the most important tasks.

Cons: One thing that ever bothered me about JIRA was the rank feature. It used to be a global rank, so I could I query issues and display them in results by order of priority (rank) regardless of what sprint they were in. Now rank is only applicable in the context of a sprint, which is not so powerful really if I want to prioritize across several teams regardless of the sprint.

Overall Experience: Being able to customize JIRA is great. It allowed us to adjust the use of the software to our needs and not the other way around.

Efficient and Good to use

Overall rating
5.0

The fact that catches the most about JIRA platform is that it’s great and caters specifically to software development teams and as a project management software teams. A lot of their issues get dealt with efficiently. This platform is not reliable to give negative reviews but we found that although the software is flexible and robust, the comprehensive features seem complicated to use.

Average product

Overall rating
4.0

Jira as a Project Management Software as many needed features, but too complicated. very poor and old-style interface. It is also an expensive tool. Overall there is no other tool that could give us what we need in our project but if there was any other solution we would consider it.

Jira as in a Workflow Software, you can define any workflow needed. But it is also seen that it is complicated for many people. Overall it is a good tool.
