Find out what your peers are saying about Atlassian, Microsoft, Nutanix and others in Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) Suites."The linking of PI Objectives with different features was one of the cool things. It had features, epics, and stories out of the box."
"It is a good defect tracking tool. It has a lot of capabilities and functionalities. There are a lot of graphs and a lot of tracking. It can be sprint-driven if you want."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the source linking on the commit level to git."
"The most valuable feature is working with sprints and having the ability to create sprints."
"The product is good, stable and very cost-effective for small teams."
"There are many good things about Atlassian."
"It's very flexible. I can define workflows and custom fields and dependencies between issues and projects. And every project can have a custom configuration with my fields, my names for fields, my validations, and my workflows. It's very customizable."
"The integration of other open source tools with Jira is very useful. It allows us to create documents and transcriptions, making it versatile beyond software development."
"We can integrate a lot of tools with the solution."
"It should just have the integration with Jira. We haven't looked at it since Atlassian bought the product."
"While it's very powerful, it's very complex sometimes."
"Tracking is important but the built-in features don't meet our needs."
"The automation feature needs to be more user-friendly."
"The solution can improve by including test management functionality in a native bundle without plugins."
"The dashboard reports can be improved. Its dashboard reports are good, but you cannot have complex reports. They are currently very basic. For instance, we can only choose two columns for a dashboard, so it is not friendly enough."
"Jira could improve the workflow, screen, and field configurability. They are lagging behind other solutions, such as Allegra in work system configurability."
"There's been the odd amount of JIRA downtime (not self hosted) and sometimes tickets that can't be accessed."
"It should have its own repository for test case creation, so that one does not have to resort to third-party tools and plugins."

Agree with Duane's comments for the most part. The two tools serve very different purposes. Where I disagree a bit is that Jira can be and is used by very large organizations to manage work. However Jira does not provide support for working across a set of related projects and services. This is what Agile Craft allows you do to - plus AC brings other capabilities like value stream management, a greater level of portfolio and business management, and management of delivery across a large set of programs.
It will definitely be interesting to see where Atlassian takes things.
