Find out in this report how the two Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) Suites solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."In general, the GUI is nice."
"The most valuable feature is the flexibility of the configuration, being able to configure it to suit your own needs."
"We have around 2000 plus users, so scale wise, there are no issues. We can easily scale up with multiple users."
"I like it for team collaboration and task management. I also like its analytics and dashboards."
"I like seeing which tickets are open and what our response rate is. They have a lot of good metrics in their system to see what's going on."
"The most valuable feature is that it has different APIs available, with good services, and it is completely by the books."
"Jira offers tools for managing projects using Agile methodology. I think it is good to encourage the development team to use Jira, so that the organization benefits from the proper execution of projects on time. Basically, it helps our organization to execute in a better way."
"I was able to do real-time reports myself without having to wait for data import."
"It really helps developers execute scenarios through DTP and share reports/results across the teams."
"The most valuable feature is code coverage."
"It is not intuitive."
"A lot of features, such as time tracking, are only available through the marketplace. If multiple users are working on a user story, we aren't able to pull out the reports. So, there are many things that they aren't offering. They are available only through the marketplace. That's not good for a product."
"I would like to see visualization of release planning. I can list the releases and I can give dates to releases, but to show how they are happening on a timeline, I would need to order the Portfolio part. But just for this, it may be too much to use the Portfolio for that."
"Having more seamless integration with Confluence would really help us track our product management activity and other product details in one place."
"I manage the progress of the stories in an Excel chart with dates on work progress or thing to do. I don't like the progress or the stage changing from the stories in Jira."
"Something I would like to see improved is the traceability feature. When you have a user story, if you can see all the test cases, it would be an improvement if you could see any design documents or any change management."
"There are some minor quirks, such as zero-point stories not appearing in the portfolio scope."
"I'd like the solution to be more secure."
"The solution's speed has room for improvement."
"Parallel execution: It would help it multiple executions could be done at the same time."
