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

"The solution is extremely stable."
"There are a lot of plugins in Jira and we purchase the ones we need."
"It is a complete solution. It has more features as compared to other tools, especially the open-source one that we use. It is also easy to administer."
"It was easy to use. The consultants that we had on board were familiar with it. So, obviously, having a community that had used it before or was familiar with it was a positive thing."
"I can use Jira Query Language (JQL) to write queries to see the stories that are there for the current sprint. I can also sort them by assignment. I also use Jira is for burndown charts, which give an indication of how efficiently the squad is performing. I also use the Active Sprints function and a feature called Planning Poker."
"The most valuable feature is project management."
"The timeline management is great."
"The biggest advantage Jira offers is flexibility because it's very flexible, and you can build your own workflows and make it work exactly the way your team needs and integrate it with almost every third-party software."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"Zoho Sprints can be integrated with other Zoho products, providing additional functionality."
"Zoho Sprints is a defect-logging tool."
"Zoho Sprints is stable with minimal downtime."
 

Cons

"We would like to see the integration of a lite-version of Confluence, just to manage some of the templates and documents."
"I would prefer it if the solution was more intuitive."
"The user interface and views on different devices should be improved."
"The performance is not so good sometimes. I know that fully depends on the implementation and the IT environment of Jira or the version of Jira installed. The performance is sometimes not so good. I would like to have a better response time from the Jira server. And it fully depends on the administration side of the Jira."
"Test case management could be more user-friendly. When we add or update test cases, there should be a better way to organize them within the dashboard."
"I'd like the solution to be more secure."
"From an automation perspective, there are more aspects that could be needed, especially regarding natural language reporting in the generative AI context."
"For me, the solution is too complicated as it has too many features. It would be nice if they could streamline things."
"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 price at the moment for Jira is okay. I'm absolutely not amused with the plans to try to drive us to the cloud or to other licensing models. For the very simple reason that we are a company in the defense sector where cloud is problematic in a number of the domains. We are now approximately 60 users and the new policy will actually confront us with an upscale to approximately 500 users. I find it unacceptable, and may potentially lead us to look for another solution."
"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."
"The price of the solution could be less expensive. We pay annually for the solution."
"The ballpark figure is about $100 a month."
"I understand JIRA is quite expensive."
"Its price is good and similar to other products. It is about five or six dollars per user."
"I am not sure if the client is using a commercial version. I think it is on a per-user basis, and it is around 15 Canadian dollars for a user, but I'm not sure. It also has a free version."
"It is an affordable tool."
"The price of Zoho Sprints is between 10 to 25 USD per user per month."
"Zoho Sprints is a more cost-effective solution than Jira."
