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

"It is an open-sourced product that is easy to customize."
"No other platform can compete on speed or search."
"The solution is valuable because it's pretty flexible; it allows you to do a lot of stuff, the functionality is pretty rich, and it integrates well with other products, like GitLab, that we are currently intensely using at the company."
"Its integration with Bitbucket, Confluence, and other related products that Atlassian owns is most valuable."
"The way we can define and customize the search queries for the tickets in Jira is most valuable."
"Jira has a useful user interface and overall is easy to understand and learn."
"The solution offers up great transparency that makes it possible for everyone inside the departmental organization to see what's happening."
"In terms of the general way that the tool functions, it seems like it's a pretty good fit-for-purpose for what we're trying to do, and we've never thought about replacing it with another technology."
"Zoho Sprints is stable with minimal downtime."
"Zoho Sprints is a defect-logging tool."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"Zoho Sprints can be integrated with other Zoho products, providing additional functionality."
 

Cons

"I would like to see it connecting to Git. That could be useful. We use it for Stash, but I think there is one for Git also. I don't know if it's a plug-in that exists already, but that could be nice."
"In terms of improvement, I think Jira (Jira Agile, specifically) can be made more user-friendly. Most of the time, when people are somewhat used to the process, they find it easy to work with. But the thing is, if I want to create a sprint, I'd like the ability for it to come out like a kind of board or something like that. For example, they could offer something like a wizard for users who want to quickly create a sprint on the spot with a few clicks. I think that could be useful."
"Managing a large number of users on Cloud version is extremely challenging due to lack of this capability."
"Jira has recently updated their UI, but more can be done to make it even better."
"It would be good if we can grant access based on the roles. This is something that Jira can look into. Currently, anyone with Jira access can access everything. Being able to define access based on the roles will give us more flexibility in managing Jira. I would like to have more reports in Jira. Currently, eight or nine reports are there. You can use Screen Test to get more reports or data from Jira, but you will have to get more add-ons, plug-ins, and stuff like that. It would be good if they can increase the number of reports."
"Whenever you edit a story, whatever you have changed takes a bit of time to save."
"Jira is a little bit old fashioned, it could be more user friendly."
"In terms of the general Jira software, one element that is missing is budget management. Perhaps such functionality exists in add-ons, however."
"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."
"Zoho Sprints is a confusing tool, and you need to get used to it."
"The interface of Zoho Sprints is an area with certain shortcomings."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of Jira is reasonable."
"The tool is expensive."
"There are no additional costs to the standard licensing."
"Our client handles the licensing aspect. They have not yet purchased the premium version."
"There is an annual subscription to use Jira."
"If I compare Jira's licensing model with that of other products, I think that the other products have a much better licensing model."
"The standard package of Jira is for 100 users. They should offer more packages for other increments, such as 500 or 2,000. In my previous company, there was a free package that provided a minimal number of users."
"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."
"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."
