Efficiently track and document projects with seamless tool integration
We are a management warehouse that provides services to different customers in different sectors. Primarily, we serve the banking sector and the military sector. We manage all the software delivery projects through tools such as JIRA Service Management or TFS Confluence is a great tool for…

A fairly stable solution that’s highly mature, but has a poor user interface
The solution does not align as modern service solutions do. Seamless integration is no available among the processes. Their service management application needs a lot of work. It’s in a really bad state right now. They brought on a new interface that clumped all the processes and features of the solution into one. Still, it’s not really compatible with other solutions. Because of this, its rating has dropped in Gardner. The solution needs to improve its reporting features. The user interface needs a lot of improvements. The product needs to implement a cloud platform solution, which is lacking so far. Their workflow engine is still segregated. It’s not embedded. If you need to do some workflow approvals, you cannot do them directly on the service desk. You have to go into Outlook and do an approval or you have to go in through another screen to handle the approval because the workflow engine they have is a separate product.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I like the history, the dimensioning, and how I can configure a space based on my preferences or the project circumstances."
"What I really like about this solution, is how it manages the queues, the tickets and the routing."
"The tool is scalable."
"It has improved our work in a number of ways. First, it has made everything much faster. Before Jira Service Management, it could take weeks to resolve a ticket."
"The centralized feature allows us to track test cases and integrate with automation and bug fixing."
"It scales well."
"The stability of JIRA Service Management is good."
"With Jira Service Desk, the simplicity of setting up a quick form and getting the service desk running quickly is very helpful."
"The solution is a highly mature product. Because of this, it can stand up to any other product on the market."
 

Cons

"I would like to see improvement in the ability to filter completed tasks."
"It would be useful to be ale to link tickets across different gantt charts in Jira and Confluence."
"The licensing model could be improved. There needs to be a different licensing model for large numbers of employees, as it remains one of the main barriers to using JIRA Service Management across our entire company."
"Include a split configuration in a layer part to allow cloud services to have almost full admin rights in SaaS."
"JSM's ability to handle large volumes of emails isn't great."
"I am not familiar if there's an integration with Visual Studio from Jira."
"JIRA Service Management should make reporting easier. I would like something integrated with DevOps tools."
"I don't think the program is very scalable."
"The solution needs to improve its reporting features. The user interface needs a lot of improvements."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost has recently increased. It might be around $20 to $25 per user license."
"I would rate the pricing a seven out of ten, where one is low price, and ten is high price. It's competitively priced."
"But about the plugins, I found one plug-in — its name is Actionable Metric I think — and it is $3000. That is very expensive for users in Iran."
"The price of the solution is becoming expensive and it should be reduced."
"Licensing can become quite expensive."
"I am using the free version, but my clients are paying for it. When they start, they evaluate it for 30 days, and after seeing the value, they move to its paid version."
"It depends on the number of users but it starts at $20 per month per user. I would rate them a three out of five for pricing."
"JIRA Service Management's pricing is pretty decent compared to competitors. I rate the pricing an eight to nine on a scale of one to ten."
