The cloud accessibility and quick task creation capabilities make collaborating with the tool a great feature for working with my team. Users can assign tasks to one or two people who can collaborate and document their work. That feature is amazing in terms of collaboration.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable features of Jira are the dashboards where we see all the features lined up with the release dates in the portfolio view, it is very good."
"The feature that we like the most is that JIRA enables modules. Atlassian provides a lot of products around JIRA, such as compliance for the documentation, BitBucket for the Git version. We are new to these products developed by Atlassian, but they can integrate very easily. Generally, when an editor is developing a solution, they think about integrating with JIRA. When we are looking for any other solution, they plan to easily integrate with JIRA."
"The product's centralized database creates a single source of data for working groups so no data needs to be reconciled."
"The tool helps us achieve more within the stipulated timeline and budget."
"The solution's tracking capabilities helped ensure we had full visibility into planned work and scheduled work."
"There is significant return on investment as the benefits are numerous; the tool provides tracking for projects and activities, with detailed insights into which team members worked on activities and the time invested in each task."
"JIRA has helped us reduce the rate of unseen or undetectable issues in the future. It has also helped us understand the demand overload across the defense team, including capacity and availability, and how we can leverage different teams to ensure overall success."
"The workflows are the most valuable feature of the solution, whether for tasks, bugs, or chain requests from the site. I also like the solution's GUI, which is easy to navigate for everyone."
"Teamwork has made process management easier and much better. It is very robust and improves by making a lot of changes. It is easy to use and has lots of reports."
"The setup was very easy. Deployment was very fast for us. We started using it within two weeks."
"It is a very stable solution...The initial setup of Teamwork is easy."
 

Cons

"JIRA and Confluence must be linked automatically."
"Converting a task into an epic is very troublesome."
"JIra is very poor at reporting."
"The solution should provide a monitoring interface for the customers to have more information about the issues."
"The team-centric view is slightly weaker in JIRA compared to its competitors, especially considering how I can evaluate how each resource has been placed, not just in one project but across JIRA."
"If you want to generate a report for individual usage, it's difficult."
"It's got kind of a steep learning curve."
"With Jira, an issue that arises is the length of time it takes to show certain data."
"The product could be improved with more integrations and a mobile app."
"The product is expensive. It needs to have a more robust and customizable calendar."
"The screen sharing provided by the solution can be a challenge to a user. Screen sharing is an area that needs improvement in the solution."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"When we first got the tool, it cost 3,000 euros a year for unlimited users, which was a great deal. But the prices kept going up over the years. I'm not involved with pricing anymore, but I heard they increased a lot, so we decided to stop using it."
"I do not believe that the product provides value for money since I feel that it is quite expensive."
"This solution has a comparable pricing in comparison to other similar products on the market."
"The pricing continues to get higher."
"The solution is offered at a high cost"
"There are free plugins available, but most of them are at an additional cost. Additionally, other services are an extra cost."
"Portfolio is very expensive, costing on average $2000-3000 per user per month."

"My company makes annual payments towards the licensing costs of the solution."
