Used as Task Management Software

Likeliness to Recommend

8 /10

What differentiates Jira from other similar products?

Jira is a powerhouse task management software. In my opinion it is different from other similar products due to its packed features, along with such easy dashboard and with a lot of functionalities. For example a beginner on the first day can understand how Jira works and can even take a month to understand what its full capabilities are. It is one of those software which needs hands on practice to use it better.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

The favourite part has to be the timesheet extraction in CSV file that saves a lot of time when calculating some data of a particular analyst.The other one has to be customised dashboard so that i can prioritize different projects and can use different dashboards without being confused.

What do you dislike most about this product?

A lot of features so the initial part is easy to understand for a beginner but no hands on training to make users understand more about the software or how efficient it can be used. Most of the times. Users perform some basic tasks on Jira and doesn’t even know the functions of it.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

I would say to go for it. Its absolutely a software that you would need if you need to manage task or project in an organisation. Plus its integration and customer support is great and will help you a lot in any queries.

Pros

  • Helps Innovate
  • Efficient Service
  • Caring
  • Respectful

Jira is a fantastic tool for Agile project teams.

Likeliness to Recommend

9 /10

What differentiates Jira from other similar products?

I think no difference, but jira is easier to use and the price is lower than other programs.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

You can easily set up and customise your JIRA account to meet your specific project management requirements. In addition to reporting, ticket tracking, requirement and comment tracking, workflow customization, job assignment and follow-up and more, a project manager's life is made easier by a host of other features.

What do you dislike most about this product?

When debugging an incorrectly configured (permission) JIRA instance, the administrator level permissions structure/permission matrix should be a little more user-friendly. Power users may be confused if they are used to doing certain activities in a certain way in a newer version of the software since some of the earlier capabilities are simplified to make it more user-friendly.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

In my view, it is the finest and most common project management software.

Pros

  • Helps Innovate
  • Continually Improving Product
  • Reliable
  • Trustworthy
