Good reporting, quick configurations, and helpful support
The primary use case is for different teams working on client-managed or co-managed projects. We need to capture different matrices and data, including the timesheets for each project to monitor and track the progress of those projects We can quickly configure the projects, which is quite…

Offers good repository integration, sprint board and easy to set up
There are some features and reports we need that are not there. For example, if I have to find out the capacity of the current sprint by user and compare it with the previous sprint, that visibility isn't there. We can know the capacity and what happened with the whole sprint, but not for an individual person to see where it's falling and how it's tracking. Report and analytics capabilities are important for a product manager. That visibility is important, so we use Jira. Some of the features are there, and I use my own Excels or other data things to compensate for that.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The reporting part is very good."
"This tool can be used anywhere and on any device."
"The most valuable features are the customized Dashboard, Sprint Planning, and Automatic Notifications."
"This solution focuses on lean methodology which we have found useful and it can also be used on any device."
"The most valuable features in Jira are the dashboard, reports, and boards that help us to control the advancement of the project."
"Overall, the solution is very nice and has a variety of great features."
"The flexibility to create different flows is most valuable."
"The solution offers a lot of plugins."
"It is easy to integrate Jira within our current IT environment. Jira has connectors and supports various integration."
 

Cons

"Some of the reports could be automated."
"It would be very practical if you can more freely reach the information that is already inside the system. Currently, we have to buy add-ons for it. There is a lot of information in the Jira system that you can handle only through add-ons. You cannot reach such information on your own. If you want to use this information, which is already in the system, you have to buy some add-on to use. For example, information about how much time an assignee is spending on a ticket is there in the system, but you cannot access it without an add-on. JQL is a very good way to reach the data inside Jira. If we can reach more objects, even through JQL, it would be great."
"The permissions can be challenging to get right."
"Reporting is something Jira could work on. The reporting capabilities should have the same flexibility we see in Excel, including the ability to manipulate data and create graphs. They need to have that, so we don't need to export to a spreadsheet."
"In Jira, say on the team, no matter the methodology, it doesn't matter what I'm practicing, if I am using the tool for a while and I've compiled some sort of history. If I want to change my workflow, say my team is today using to-do in progress done, and tomorrow, I decide I want to use to-do in review and done, and I apply that new workflow, I have just now effectively lost all of my histories in terms of reporting."
"The reporting tool and the approval tool need work."
"The reporting part is a little bit difficult for me. It is not so easy. There should be a simpler way to track the efforts of our team. For example, in an Excel sheet, there is a feature for filtering. It would be much better if we can use something like that. Currently, for a complex query, we need to use Jira Query Language. Using Jira Query Language every time is not efficient for me."
"The solution should be more user-friendly and include integration with different tools."
"It's also difficult to migrate through, things don't always tie-up. It's not easy to use."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"One of my customers told me that they were receiving better pricing for a similar tool from Microsoft."
"We are a regional research and education institute. We're using the free license provided for educational institutes."
"Its price is fine, but we would like it to be less expensive. We are paying on a yearly basis."
"To try this solution, use their cloud offering to get familiar. After that, it's in my view worth the money."
"There are no additional costs to the standard licensing."
"We feel that the product is a good value for the cost."
"The tool's pricing is reasonable."
"It's not very cheap. It's also not very costly. I'd rate it a five out of ten in terms of pricing."
