Efficiently track and document projects with seamless tool integration

Edward Carbutt - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers multi-tenancy architecture, both in terms of functionality and reporting, requires minimal configuration and no-code deployment
We're still biased towards our previous, more mature product. 4me still needs to reach that level of maturity. However, for most users, the product will do what they need. It's only when you have mature service management processes and need deeper integrations at the process level that you might encounter some limitations. But for less mature needs, 4me works well.

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 precise ticket management capabilities. JIRA Service Management is easy to use as well."
"This solution has helped us a great deal in project management tracking and forecasting."
"Automation capabilities allow for automatic ticket creation using monitoring tools."
"The most valuable features of JIRA Service Management are the service level agreement or management, and the ticketing system. Additionally, there are frequent updates that provide improvements."
"It scales well."
"The most valuable feature of JIRA Service Management is a plugin we are using for the front end for simple user forms."
"We get software developed faster."
"The centralized feature allows us to track test cases and integrate with automation and bug fixing."
"I like their request management as well as their project management."
"The multi-tenancy architecture, both in terms of functionality and reporting, is the best feature. It is a really well-thought, designed, and developed part of this product."
"It offers a comprehensive set of features without requiring additional payments for each feature."
"The solution is highly stable."
 

Cons

"The solution needs to be integrated better with Office X5."
"We have tried exporting some of the test cases into Jira from Excel. The interface for that isn't very user-friendly."
"The initial setup is very complex."
"It is pretty complex to move between the test environment and the production environment. There is potential for improvement."
"Integration could be improved."
"Field addition and removal features are not very intuitive in JIRA Service Management."
"If JIRA were more of a substantial stand-alone product that covered more needs for project management, we wouldn't be using a suite of products."
"The deployment can be a bit complex, especially for those who are not technical."
"Asset Discovery is a feature that should be added."
"We would like to be able to customize and brand the solution, or at least the majority of its features and dashboards, particularly those that will be used by a large number of people."
"One area where I believe there's room for improvement in the 4me system is the absence of an asset discovery tool."
"We're still biased towards our previous, more mature product. 4me still needs to reach that level of maturity."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is very competitive and I think that it is okay."
"The cost has recently increased. It might be around $20 to $25 per user license."
"For the people like us, the lower the price, the better. But when compared to other competitors, I think it's Jira's price is okay."
"The pricing is free for us because we are an associate partner for the product."
"Licensing can become quite expensive."
"Buying a software solution is only a half part of the solution (or even less). You need to optimize usage of the software by hiring professionals who will help you to make the most of the software, especially in the beginning."
"On a scale of one to five, where five is a good price and one is high, I would rate this solution as a three. It isn't cheap but it's not ridiculous."
"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."
"The pricing is expensive."
"The licensing costs on the website are about $60 for pay-as-you-go. And then it decreases based on volume discounts or something."
"This pricing falls on the lower end of the spectrum, making it a cost-effective option."
"It is the most affordable because it is priced per month per user."
