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

"JQL, JIRA Query Language enables me to filter all the issues, display the items as I want."
"Jira's integration with our workflow is deep, and we rely on it heavily for software development."
"​One of the valuable features is traceability from requirements to test cases."
"The features that we find most valuable are the Workflow, Scrum workflow, and Dashboards."
"I like the test cases in Jira. The orange dash items view was great, and I like the features and layout of the data. It's quite different, and people are now getting their items so quickly."
"We have found the structure, functionality, and how Jira handles the tickets most valuable."
"What I really like about Jira is that it ticks off all the boxes for any agile project. It's easy to set up, easy to use, and it has excellent notification features. Jira is the top choice for anyone working on agile projects like ours."
"Jira's collaborative features, such as comments, notifications, and real-time updates, facilitate better communication."
"Zoho Sprints is stable with minimal downtime."
"Zoho Sprints can be integrated with other Zoho products, providing additional functionality."
"Zoho Sprints is a defect-logging tool."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
 

Cons

"it would be helpful to have a better tutorial for learning and to have a better understanding of what the features are and what they do."
"The part when it comes to the testing area is a bit hard to handle. The screen is too small, you can't really read what you're typing in, and it's only for the testing area. It looks like they have pressed in more than the UI system could handle to display it properly."
"The performance and stability are visibly degrading since the database has been growing every year."
"Something I do not like about the new version is that there is a need to browse all the way back to the beginning, should a person click on a task that is specifically for his group and wish to go back and look at the other portfolios or people."
"I'd like some more features around software testing. I'd like to see some more stuff done around data testing. That's what I'm most interested in."
"It is a bit harder for management or the business partners. I used to search the Atlassian Community online for some troubleshooting issues and I think there were some issues that seemed to not be a big problem for other similar applications, like Microsoft Teams, that were not considered by Jira."
"The stability could be improved."
"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."
"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."
"The interface of Zoho Sprints is an area with certain shortcomings."
"There is a need to improve the charts and velocity calculations in Zoho Sprints."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"Jira and its solution off the shelf are cheap. It is cheap for startups."
"We are on an annual license and could be less expensive."
"The price of Jira could be lower."
"Licensing is on a monthly basis, and it is based on what you use."
"The pricing is much higher than other similar solutions available in the market, and as such, the vendor should think about a price reduction to make this product more affordable."
"It is an affordable tool."
"The ballpark figure is about $100 a month."
"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."
