Jira Reviews

Our company follows the Agile methodology for software development, and this product is one of the best tools for companies that do so.

We regularly check the tasks assigned to us, day by day, and create a work log in that task according to what has been done.

You can check today's task assigned to you by using a custom filter, which you can create on your own. We can also make a customized dashboard user-wise.

Upper-level management can analyze the chart and get an overview of the project, giving them the ability to estimate the budget and release date of the project.

After purchasing Jira, we started shifting to it from the older software we used, like Bugzilla. Bugzilla was being used as our bug reporting tool but after the introduction of Jira, we began to use several of its features. We now use Jira for Scrum Planning, Bug Reporting, Time Tracking, and Budget Tracking.

Day by day, the transparency of the project improves and estimating the project release date becomes easier to do. It is also easy for management-level users to check the project's budget and estimate the release date for a specific feature.

Because there are a number of charts available, looking at them will assist you with any decision that is related to your project.

As a user of the Jira, rather than an administrator, the custom dashboard and custom filter are some of the best features from my perspective.

I can manage my own dashboard and by logging into my account every day, I can get information about the day's tasks assigned to me. I can also see my timeline chart, and using that, I can see and understand what has been done in the last week/month.

I have added a gadget on my dashboard that gives me regular updates on the bugs reported by the QA team.

Jira is one of the best software applications for project management and budget tracking, but it does have some issues, as follows:

• Firstly, the filtering feature can be improved to some degree.
• Because JIRA has so many features, it may take some time to obtain a general knowledge of each one.
• In order to enhance adoption in small and medium businesses, the cost should be improved.
• I believe it will be difficult for new users to understand.
• There are a limited number of gadgets accessible in Jira; thus, additional ones should be supported.

In our organization, we have been Jira since 2017.

Previously, we were using the Bugzilla bug tracking software for reporting bugs from the QA and FITs. Due to the number of problems that we had with it, we purchased Jira and have been using it for approximately five years.

The initial setup was easy, and we haven't found any difficulty in that.

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.

We did not evaluate other options before implementing Jira.

Our testers and QA teams use this tool. 

This solution is easy to use and takes a lot of burden off the QA team.

I'd like to see a more stable product with more integrations, as new products are coming on the market daily.

.

The technical support could be better, a little more customer friendly and knowledgeable.

The initial setup was quite straightforward. We had our technical team deal with it. We currently have around 25 people using the product. 

We pay an annual licensing fee. 

I rate this solution an eight out of 10. 

Our primary use case is for project management, guiding the teams in our company. The solution allows you to create Scrum boards to deliver all the acquired stories within the Scrum Sprints. It also adapts to any other Jive methodology, like Kanban, and helps the creation of roadmaps for the software, production and implementation. We use it for day-to-day tasks, managing our stories, assigning tasks to different developers, and even integrating it with other system control tools to link the story's details. We are customers of Jira. 

The Jira user interface is really helpful because you can see the big picture regardless of what stage the task is at. You can define priorities and estimate times. If, for example, you're planning to move to Scrum, you need a project management tool; JIRA is perfect for that. It can also be used on personal projects because they offer a free plan with unlimited features to manage your project, define your backlog, and check the status of a project. 

The solution comes with multiple reporting charts so you can see the sprint burndown chart and other information. We previously had our own internal tools for Scrum, and moving to Jira was a total upgrade. There's no need to create new accounts for your users. You integrate company emails with an internal server, grant the user access and with their  company credentials, they can log into the platform. That's a pretty good feature. 

They could probably improve the integration with some of the automation tools and provide a specialized user interface suitable to their requirements. 

This is a very stable and reliable solution. The whole company uses it and we have around 500 employees. Our team adopted Jira recently but others in the company have been using it for a while. 

Jira is very scalable and allows for the integration with source control tools.

I haven't had to contact technical support. 

The initial setup was straightforward, we got access to it and started using it. They also provide you with documentation which helps if you are new to Scrum and new to the platform and features. 

There is an annual subscription fee based on the number of users. You can get a subscription for just 10 users, for small teams, and if you want more you can buy more. They have a standard and premium license. 

I would definitely recommend this product because it's scalable and easy to use. They provide best practice articles and quick start tutorials which are very helpful. If a new user has all the documentation, they can go from zero to hero very quickly.

I rate this solution a 10 out of 10.  

We using this solution to handling all of our development and support tickets.

We have found the structure, functionality, and how Jira handles the tickets most valuable.

The performance could be improved in the future.

I have been using this solution for approximately four years.

We have had some issues with stability.

The scalability is good for what we are using it for. We have approximately 20 people using the solution in my organization and we plan to increase usage.

The technical support could be more responsive.

We have one technician handling the deployment of Jira in my organization.

There is a monthly license required for this solution and it is expensive.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate Jira an eight out of ten.

Our primary use case for JIRA is for project tracking to see where our development team productivity is.

This product has been very helpful for me in terms of creating tasks and tracking my development team's productivity. 

I think support could be improved, in particular it would be helpful having a login for the support team.

I've been using this solution for six years. 

This solution is very stable.

This solution is scalable. 

It was easy to deploy this locally, I'm not sure if it would be the same at enterprise level. We have nearly 300 users in the company. 

I've tried some other solutions including Plenty, ClickUp and Azure. I feel that Jira is far better than these other solutions. 

I would recommend this product for people who have agility.

I rate this solution an eight out of 10. 

We are using it for project management. We have cloud and on-premises deployments of this solution, and we are currently using its latest version.

It is very straightforward and easy to use.

It should be less expensive.

I have been using this solution for about five years.

It is scalable. We have about 500 users.

I don't have any experience with their technical support.

It is easy to install. It takes one to two days.

Our team handles its deployment and maintenance. We have a team of three people to manage it.

Its price is fine, but we would like it to be less expensive. We are paying on a yearly basis.

We didn't evaluate other products.

I would 100% recommend this solution to others. We plan to keep using it.

I would rate Jira a nine out of ten.

We use the solution to track all projects and management activity.

There are a lot of plugin integrations available right now that are continuously being updated. We have recently worked on ways we can integrate with the DevOps.

I have found the tracking, project and task management most valuable in this solution.

They could improve the solution by having a multiple project dashboard to be able to manage many projects KPI's at once, this would really be helpful.

In the next release, I would like to see task creation management simplified and overall usage streamlined for new users.

I have been using Jira for four years.

We are extensively using this solution for all of our projects across the entire enterprise. It has shown that it is able to be scaled effectively.

I have never had any problems with this solution to need to use the technical support.

The installation was not complex, I did not find any difficulites.

I would advise others wanting to purchase the solution that they can improve their business UX. This solution has been established in the market and is commonly used in many project management sectors because it can be easily used once you have experience. If you are new to this solution it could be confusing to some people because there is not a proper project flow. For example, Once you create a ticket or any task, you are not able to see what you just created in the notification area. Currently, you receive a pop-up and it will go off after some time, if you do not click the pop-up when it comes up you will have to refresh, go back to the project, and then find out the task from there. This could be simplified in the future.

They provide a product that is very good but in terms of a presentation, they have room to improve.

I rate Jira a nine out of ten.

Our primary use cases for this product are project management, customer relationship management, internal management, and collaboration.

It's an open API. We also have the best community to support any problems that we have.

Cost could be improved. The pricing is quite high. I could also see there being a need for improvements in software product management, project planning, and DevOps. 

I have been using Jira for six years. 

It is stable. 

The product is used on a daily basis by 2,000 people. However, it is not easy to scale. 

Technical support could be made more efficient and localized. 

The initial setup was somewhere in the middle. Not very simple; not very complex. 

We worked with consultants and deployment took us two months. All maintenance has been handled by vendors from outside of the organization.
