Featured Reviews

Has customized workflows to fit internal processes and improved overall team organization
I don't have a particular customization or integration that's been especially valuable for my team, but I experienced integrating Jira and QuickBooks, which was very challenging, but it really impacted the efficiency of the whole company. I have been working with Jira for over 12 years, and I've seen it grow every year. It's a powerful product, but lately, I think Atlassian has been adding too many simplified features that look nice but don't offer the same level of flexibility, and made some fields not available through the API, which is kind of frustrating. If I could make one suggestion, it would be to focus more on improving API integration and automation tools, not just the design.

Agile project management benefits from integrated tools for small and medium-sized teams
I use Zoho Sprints for Agile project management. It supports Scrum and Kanban frameworks, allowing me to work with epics and user stories, and manage projects effectively. It is suitable for software industries that adopt Agile methodologies in their projects Zoho Sprints can be integrated with…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most useful features are the Kanban dashboard, the ability to create tasks, bugs, epics with child issues, time estimation, and Jira reports."
"Offers a common language set so we can bring people into projects and get them up and running almost immediately."
"It benefits us because we have globally located teams. Our team members work in different geographies, so the product is a better way to manage progress and see the status of different tasks"
"Offers great multiple reporting charts."
"The solution works well and does what it needs to do."
"The most valuable aspect of this solution is its ability to connect everything together."
"The pricing of the product is very good. It's not too expensive"
"We can cope with processes easily without adapting the tool, but adapting the tool to processes."
"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

"Backlog pruning and visualization are poor."
"From a very software-centric or a lead developer standpoint, there should be the ability to work at multiple levels. You have epic stories and use cases or epic stories and tasks. It would be nice to be able to have multiple levels of stories and multiple levels of epics work with it. It's lacking a little bit there, and this is the big thing for me because it makes it difficult to do a real sprint when you're limited to one story per epic. It's really hard to isolate tasks at multiple levels to match the type of use cases you normally do. That's the biggest difficulty. Other than that, they've been improving year to year, and every version seems to have a level of improvement."
"The solution can improve by including test management functionality in a native bundle without plugins."
"I manage the progress of the stories in an Excel chart with dates on work progress or thing to do. I don't like the progress or the stage changing from the stories in Jira."
"Whenever you edit a story, whatever you have changed takes a bit of time to save."
"Its UI can be improved a little bit. I know this a business tool and not a commercial tool, but it could be a little bit more interactive like the HP ALM/Quality Center, which provides you the results of graphs and gives you a lot of visual representations. I feel Jira lacks a little bit in this aspect."
"Integration with some of the automation tools could be improved."
"It is not intuitive."
"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."
"There is a need to improve the charts and velocity calculations in Zoho Sprints."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost is about $10 per user, per month."
"I am not sure about the pricing, but I know its licensing is on a yearly basis."
"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."
"There are no additional costs to the standard licensing."
"We make use of the solution free of charge."
"The tool is expensive."
"It depends on the type of license. In terms of subscription, it is cheap, and it works pretty well."
"I don't deal with licensing in my current consultant position."
"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."
