Featured Reviews

Saroj Ekka - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers good repository integration, sprint board and easy to set up
There are some features and reports we need that are not there. For example, if I have to find out the capacity of the current sprint by user and compare it with the previous sprint, that visibility isn't there. We can know the capacity and what happened with the whole sprint, but not for an individual person to see where it's falling and how it's tracking. Report and analytics capabilities are important for a product manager. That visibility is important, so we use Jira. Some of the features are there, and I use my own Excels or other data things to compensate for that.
Sandipan Roy - PeerSpot reviewer
A requirement management tool that provides a good technical support along with stability
I see that when we just define the configuration management part, it is a completely different case. Somehow in our organization or current profile, we are not built to make that linkage between that requirement and the configuration management part. So, if it is making some kind of accountability there or some kind of configuration linkage, then it would be a little bit helpful. The training material for PTC Integrity should be made a little bit easier or more useful for the user. At least for the new commerce may be. If it is possible, they can make it module-wise for the PTC Integrity team. To give along with the PTC channel itself, then it might be a little bit helpful. For example, as in the MATLAB that we are using, users have ample amount of use cases there and resources by which they can explore the learning part also. So, if it is possible for PTC Integrity directly to get that one, it will be helpful for the new users.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Jira is designed for issue tracking, making the process much easier than traditional methods like paper-based tracking. It is number one for agile management."
"I like that Jira allows you to customize the flow for an agile process and adapt it to your own flow."
"The initial setup isn't too complicated."
"This solution focuses on lean methodology which we have found useful and it can also be used on any device."
"I have found Jira to be stable."
"The solution is very scalable and flexible."
"It's an open-sourced product that is easy to customize."
"Our company follows the Agile methodology for software development, and this product is one of the best tools for companies that do so."
"It is a stable solution...I rate the support a nine out of ten."
 

Cons

"Performance is something that can always be improved upon in a feature release. Additionally, it would be a benefit to add Markdown in Jira because sometimes it might be better to describe everything in Markdown because it is a common language structure."
"It would be very useful to have drag and drop time tracking."
"Based on the feedback from my admin, it is sometimes difficult to find some of the features. It is not a big deal, but its configuration interface can be improved to make it easy to find things."
"We'd like to use it with non-Agile projects in the future, however, right now, it is a very Agile-focused product."
"There needs to be easier integration with third-parties — personally, this is the biggest issue for me."
"The permissions can be challenging to get right."
"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."
"The challenge which I frequently see from Jira is the label. When you search for a label sometimes, it suddenly disappears. If there's a mismatch due to all-caps or lower case, you won't be able to find it. It won't even come up as a recommendation or suggestion. That's something that can be really frustrating, as people create labels in their own specific ways and then no one else can find anything."
"The training material for PTC Integrity should be made a little bit easier or more useful for the user."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"Its price is fine, but we would like it to be less expensive. We are paying on a yearly basis."
"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."
"Our client handles the licensing aspect. They have not yet purchased the premium version."
"We are using the enterprise license which is nice because it ensures that we always have the latest versions of Jira software."
"The price of Jira could be lower."
"There are other solutions that are free making this solution seem expensive in comparison."
"I think the starter pack of three users, up to five users, is free. So you can try it out."
