Works but takes a careful implementation

Likeliness to Recommend

7 /10

What differentiates Jira from other similar products?

The platform was designed for technology-centric development and includes both ticketing and documentation capabilities which is nice. It would be challenging to use this product outside of that environment.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Simplified project structures for managing processes and tickets.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Slow - speed - is a major consideration when you have hundreds logging time on a product throughout the day. The loss in productivity is considerable.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Run a trial using existing workflows and data. There is a steep uphill in the data structure set up and you want to get close to perfect before rolling out the implementation. Adding fuctionality/data post launch is challenging.

Pros

  • Appreciates Incumbent Status
  • Respectful
  • Acts with Integrity
  • Transparent

Cons

  • Slower Product Innovation
  • Less Reliable
  • Less Productive

Efficient and easy to use software.

What differentiates Jira from other similar products?

Jira is used for simple project management and problem tracking. The advantages include the convenience of monitoring work across project developers and the ability to have a backlog of future work to assess. We can also document changes and produce batches for upgrades, change requests, upgrades, or issues. New bugs or modifications may be tracked, assigned, resolved and closed with ease.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Jira accomplishes the basic things better it provides a beautiful picture of the sprint's assigned stories/tasks and I can also see what other team members are working on, ensuring that I am aware of all the project's current work Jira is the greatest bug tracking solution for agile software development teams, since it helps them plan, monitor, and deploy products. Tasks are simple to navigate, assign, and remind you of on a regular basis you may also create email lists for all of the bugs that are assigned to you on a daily basis.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Jira website might be sluggish at times. The sophisticated stuff is insanely complicated for example, project settings for state transitions. Jira can occasionally reject a task when you move it to a new state in the storyboard for no obvious reason, forcing you to redo it. One aspect of the user interface that I dislike is that if you click on a specific problem description, you will be sent to edit mode, where you may lose data if you aren't cautious. It may also take some getting accustomed to for someone new to Jira because the navigation might be challenging.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Don't make Jira any more difficult than it has to be, for 99 percent of projects, a simple project flow is sufficient, state transitions that are overly complicated might cause issues. There are several issue tracking programs available but Jira is the most collaborative, with a wonderful user interface and numerous built-in plugins.

Pros

  • Continually Improving Product
  • Reliable
  • Performance Enhancing
  • Enables Productivity
