Agile workflows have streamlined sprint planning and tracking for faster feature delivery
Jira has a very good interface and it is very easy to manage sprints, tasks, and epics. The main feature is the hierarchy, as features can be converted into epics and topics, allowing bigger tasks to be partitioned into smaller ones. The hierarchy feature in Jira helps the team significantly compared to other tools that have been used, such as Trello, which is mainly useful only for a waterfall model. For modern Agile practices, Jira is the most adapted tool in the industry. Another valuable feature is that Jira APIs have been used for data science projects to analyze tasks and get insights. This has also been very helpful in the project.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Jira's collaborative features, such as comments, notifications, and real-time updates, facilitate better communication."
"Jira has impacted the productivity and cost efficiency for me and my development team, though I have faced some challenges with Jira during this time."
"Our company follows the Agile methodology for software development, and this product is one of the best tools for companies that do so."
"The solution helps a lot with scrums."
"The informatics is the most valuable feature. It captures what we need."
"The solution is extremely stable."
"It is user-friendly, and you can manage your project according to the methodology you want. It is also easy to configure."
"The workflows are very easy to handle as far as scalability goes."
"Zoho Sprints is a defect-logging tool."
"Zoho Sprints is stable with minimal downtime."
"Zoho Sprints can be integrated with other Zoho products, providing additional functionality."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
 

Cons

"The automation feature needs to be more user-friendly."
"I'd like to see better notetaking capabilities so every user can get notes when someone provides comments on a Jira ticket. So if they don't want to provide the comments on the Jira ticket, they can get the personal notes in a Jira tool for every profile."
"Having more seamless integration with Confluence would really help us track our product management activity and other product details in one place."
"They can maybe dumb down the directions for building the automation a little bit because to be able to build out the automation, I had to play around with it and learn what all the fields meant and what they were referencing. I don't have an IT background originally. My background is in biology, and I got into project management by chance. I am good at it, but I haven't really worked with coding languages. In terms of writing automation, it is easier for devs because they intuitively know what they're being asked, but as a PM who originally didn't have IT experience, it was a little bit daunting at first. It could also have an extra hierarchy to be able to allow tasks under stories. It could be the way it is set up at our organization, but currently, under stories, you can have sub-tasks, but you can't create a task. Being able to customize your hierarchy a little bit more would be beneficial because sometimes, the devs would say, "Well, here's a story, and now we need sub-tasks," but as we were building out the sub-tasks, sometimes we had to go a step lower to dig in a little bit more, and we couldn't do that."
"Once a story is closed, all the records, versions, and documentation associated with it are gone. We lose the traceability of what was done."
"There are no fields to search or to filter by, mainly the ones which use a data around a date and time when something changes."
"Jira could be more, for example, like Micro Focus, which is what I mostly work with currently."
"Could offer an improved user experience."
"There is a need to improve the charts and velocity calculations in Zoho Sprints."
"There is a need to improve the charts and velocity calculations in Zoho Sprints."
"The interface of Zoho Sprints is an area with certain shortcomings."
"Zoho Sprints is a confusing tool, and you need to get used to it."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing cost for Jira is typically around seven dollars per user, though it may vary depending on regional variations. This cost is for a subscription-based model rather than a one-time purchase. I rate its pricing a seven out of ten."
"The price seems reasonable to me. It's very similar to Splunk."
"I don't have the number, but I sure wish Jira was less expensive. Its price point should be a little lower, and it should be more flexible for users who are just ticket viewers."
"The price of the solution could be less expensive. We pay annually for the solution."
"When you get larger, the pricing becomes very, very steep."
"If you are using just Jira, it is cheap, but if you start to use it and you feel you need some more services or more functions, then you have to buy add-ons, which can make it expensive."
"I rate the tool's pricing a five out of ten. It's paid yearly."
"There is a need to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs attached to the solution. The product offers flexibility in pricing since it depends on the memory bits you have used."
"Zoho Sprints is a more cost-effective solution than Jira."
"The price of Zoho Sprints is between 10 to 25 USD per user per month."
