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 has been a good l tool for collaborating across large groups of people. The JQL feature is powerful and easy to use."
"Jira is easy to use and there are a lot of tools that are integrated with it."
"The user story map is excellent. The features can be composed into stories and they can be allocated to each of the sprints in a program increment. It allows you to see all that in the user story map, and you have various dashboards to see the stories in various views. You can see them as a backlog view, for example, or you can see as an actual sprint view."
"Straightforward system that gets the job done."
"I have found the tracking, project and task management most valuable in this solution."
"The dashboards are useful."
"The features that we find most valuable are the Workflow, Scrum workflow, and Dashboards."
"The flexibility to create different flows is most valuable."
"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 stable with minimal downtime."
"Zoho Sprints is a defect-logging tool."
 

Cons

"Its search and reporting can be improved. They are already nice, but they can be further improved."
"The support person I contacted was not skilled enough to provide me the answer so it's up in the air."
"However, it is quite difficult to use and manipulate."
"Sometimes, it is slow and hangs. We faced some stability issues where JIRA was down for a day, and we lost some of our comments made in JIRA because of downtime."
"I don't know if it's the way it's deployed in the organization, but the interface we are provided is not as customizable as other tools."
"We'd like to see Jira have more integration with a development ID."
"We spend hours and sometimes days looking through completed stories in order to determine how to manage a defect in our existing system."
"It would be very practical if you can more freely reach the information that is already inside the system. Currently, we have to buy add-ons for it. There is a lot of information in the Jira system that you can handle only through add-ons. You cannot reach such information on your own. If you want to use this information, which is already in the system, you have to buy some add-on to use. For example, information about how much time an assignee is spending on a ticket is there in the system, but you cannot access it without an add-on. JQL is a very good way to reach the data inside Jira. If we can reach more objects, even through JQL, it would be great."
"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

"We are on an annual license and could be less expensive."
"The basic price of Jira is reasonable, but for each plugin, we have to keep paying more. When you add it all up, it can be expensive. The main problem we face is we are forced to purchases plugin licenses for users who are not going to use them. For example, we have Jira licenses for approximately 450 people but if we only want a purchase a plugin for few people it is mandatory to buy the license for the 450 people who have Jira licensees. This is a problem because sometimes we need plugins for the product manager or for people in charge of the report, not everyone. For us, it can be very expensive in the end, they should alter this policy to allow plugins for only a set number of licenses."
"JIRA's pricing is very economical. I would say that JIRA is a great deal more economical than Microsoft."
"There are no additional costs to the standard licensing."
"The price of the solution could be lower."
"I think the starter pack of three users, up to five users, is free. So you can try it out."
"We are using the enterprise license which is nice because it ensures that we always have the latest versions of Jira software."
"The price seems reasonable to me. It's very similar to Splunk."
"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."
