Jira Reviews

We mainly use the solution for project management. We are using Jira for our software development purposes only. Usually, we create a Jira project for each project and develop it according to its size. We assign team members who will belong to those projects, each project. Then, we manage everything using Jira.

Basically, the main purpose of using Jira is just planning and then checking issues. That's all for now.

We can lean on Jira completely during projects, even in terms of all the small things, surrounding planning. There are error reports, and we can take in the progress. We are not using any other tool except Jira for managing software development, including the testing and reports and following up.

Overall, the solution is very nice and has a variety of great features. 

The stability of the solution has been quite good.

We haven't had any issues with scalability.

It's a very useful project management tool.

For me, the solution is too complicated as it has too many features. It would be nice if they could streamline things.

They can make it a little bit better in terms of the user interface. Some things are very scattered. It is a bit confusing. They developed a new user interface, and I cannot follow the changes. There's documentation, however, it's not so good.

The solution has a pretty steep learning curve. It would be great if they could lessen the learning curve by providing more templates and ready-made options for new users to take advantage of.

I've been using the solution for almost two years. It's been a while.

In terms of stability, we haven't experienced any crash or anything like that. There are no bugs or glitches. We haven't suffered any issue with the Jira service itself so far.

Due to the fact that we are using the cloud service of Jira, we don't have any experience with any lagging or delaying or any of those kinds of issues yet. The team is managing this scalability and can scale up and down their resources automatically in the background. I don't have any issues with the scalability that's provided.

We are a small organization. We only have a team of 20 developers. We might increase usage in the future, should our team grow.

We haven't had to reach out to technical support just yet. I can't speak to how helpful or responsive they are.

I wasn't directly involved in the implementation process. I can't speak to what cloud the product is on or the exact details of the deployment.

We have only two people for the Jira management. We are only paying attention to security. We ensure we are giving the right permission to the right person, that is the only factor we are focusing on. 

We are just customers and end-users.

As we are using the cloud version of the solution, we are always on the most up-to-date version.

For simple project management, Jira is too much. If you want to manage a project precisely, however, then I can recommend Jira. It's not only a software-specific version. There are different versions of Jira so that you can apply it to different areas - not just software. That is one good aspect. I'd say that it is very polished, and has a very well-defined approach to project management. 

I'd rate the solution at a nine out of ten. We've mostly been happy with how it's worked for us.

Defect Management, Issue Management, and the GreenHopper plugin with Agile.

They should provide CLI or some other deployment mechanism that improves productivity by avoiding duplicate efforts.

6 years as a user, and 1 month evaluation period

During an upgrade we found an issue.

Yes, this is not stable as compared to other tools I managed.

Yes, scalability is an issue. Performance decreases.

7/10

Straightforward

Ourselves

I would rate it a 5 on scale of 10, but again it depends how large is the team, company size, overall features needed and the instance you want to manage.

When we used it, it was a low-cost solution but now the costs have increased. The team has to look into long term costs.

Yes, other defect management tools available on the market when I first evaluated JIRA 6 years ago.

UI of this tool is good.

Small teams and small projects may consider this as good option.

Jira is a project management tracking tool, and it would be great to see integration with the source front or Azure DevOps, etc. The history of tasks, such as check-in and checkout, is not maintained under the particular Jira ticket. For example, in Azure DevOps management for a work item you can find out any chain set and dependency.

I've been using Jira for more than two years.

It is a stable solution.

We have around 2000 plus users, so scale wise, there are no issues. We can easily scale up with multiple users.

I'm coming from an Azure DevOps background, and we use the integration board. It is very easy because the source code is there under one umbrella; however, Jira is not under the Azure DevOps umbrella. If your company is using Azure DevOps or Git as a repository, I recommend using the Azure DevOps board rather than Jira.

I would rate Jira at seven on a scale from one to ten.

We use Jira for ETCM. It's for ticketing with QRadar.

We integrate Jira with QRadar which is helpful.

The performance is quite good.

It has real-time collaboration. 

It provides good visual data easily.

While Jira integrates well with QRadar, it is not integrated with Splunk for example.

I would like to see more integration available with more tools.

Jira is not used in my company; in fact, it is not used at all. Jira is a project management tool that I use at school and during my internship.

Jira is stable. I have not experienced any issues with the stability of Jira.

We have not had any issues with the scalability of Jira.

They provide technical assistance. Whenever you need something technical, they are quick to respond.

The price seems reasonable to me. It's very similar to Splunk. 

I don't believe it is expensive. 

I'm not sure if they provide a free version, but we need free versions of everything to try before we buy. 

I believe we simply require a longer, free version.

The initial setup is simple. I didn't do it myself, but I've read the support, the guide, and it appears to be simple.

I did some research for a school project. I needed to compare it to Splunk and a few other tools. As a result, I'm not particularly interested in purchasing them.

I don't use Jira very often, and I don't have a lot of experience with it.

I would rate Jira a seven out of ten.

I use Jira for user stories, tasks, bugs, track releases, track backlogs issues, burndown, and test reports.

Jira has helped our company because it is easy to track releases and deployments. It is easy to track which tickets have been done or are still pending and left to be completed.

Jira's most valuable features are ease of use, simple to understand, and highly flexible. Additionally, you can use kanban or scrum which is a benefit.

The reports in Jira can be improved, especially for test reports. I find it difficult to customize and integrate for different testing purposes.

The out-of-the-box version of Jira has minimal to no testing functionality. I have to use Zephyr to be able to track testing. The time logging is also not easy to use, or user-friendly.

In the next release of Jira, there should be test cases in the test reports. Better burndown and burnup reports should be enhanced. Additionally, the usability of time logging could be better.

I have been using Jira for seven years.

Jira is stable and reliable, we have not had an issue.

I have found Jira scalable.

We have approximately 50 people using the solution in my organization.

I use the solution extensively in my organization, I use it daily.

I have not contacted support from Jira.

When I came to this company I had already used Jira. Previously, I was using quality control from Quality Center and Azure DevOps.

The initial setup was straightforward overall. The process takes only 10 to 15 minutes. However, the setup could improve.

We did the implementation of the solution in-house.

We have two administrators that do the patching and maintenance of the solution.

I would recommend Jira to others.

I would advise others to be sure to do the reports correctly because there can be some challenges in reporting and in the testing phase.

I rate Jira an eight out of ten.

We use Jira to manage our software development lifecycle. Additionally, it can be used to communicate between teams and as a management tool, it has many abilities.

The solution is easy to use and user-friendly.

I have been using Jira for approximately 10 years. 

Jira is highly stable.

The solution is scalable.

We have approximately 400 people using the solution in my organization.

The technical support is very good. They have different ways to get in contact with the support, such as chat.

The installation took a couple of weeks. It was a distributed architecture that was quite easy to implement.

We are on an annual license and could be less expensive.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate Jira a ten out of ten.

I'm a consulting company. I provide solutions for many companies, and in some cases, I implement Jira. DevOps is something else that I provide for my clients.

Our clients range in all sizes. I have microscopic clients, such as a one-man company, and on the other end of the spectrum, I have the New Zealand government, for example.

The most valuable feature of Jira is that it's a well-known tool that many people are familiar with.

Jira is not the best tool; I just don't like it.

I am not looking to improve Jira. I have transitioned to using Azure DevOps or GitHub.

I don't like the interface or the way it is structured. I prefer the way it is done in Azure DevOps.

It is not user-friendly.

I have been acquainted with Jira for approximately five years.

Jira is a stable solution.

I have not contacted technical support.

We are also providing Azure DevOps.

I would recommend DevOps because it is more user-friendly and easier to use.

I was not involved in the initial setup of Jira.

I would rate Jira a five out of ten.

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.
