Jira makes my development team more productive

Likeliness to Recommend

10 /10

What differentiates Jira from other similar products?

For development teams like mine, with a fixation on the Scrum and agile style of project management, Jira is the only PM software at the moment, which is designed specifically for agile and Scrum management . In my opinion, this sets Jira apart from its peers.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

The ability to identify, track and record bugs detected within software products we build, into Jira has been very appealing to me. This is because having all issues and bugs we encounter while building a software , get recorded in our Jira backlog, makes it easier to prioritize the most important bugs and issues to address .

What do you dislike most about this product?

Customization on Jira leaves a lot to be desired. In default customization, it is difficult to track tickets or stories that have been closed. Also, despite the revamped Jira user interface, key functionalities and features still feel buried behind too many clicks.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Jira despite its shortcomings has surely made my development team more productive.
