Find out in this report how the two Project Management Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It's an open-sourced product that is easy to customize."
"The level of stability is quite good."
"It improved communication, as it was a popular tool, and most people enjoyed using it."
"It's very flexible. I can define workflows and custom fields and dependencies between issues and projects. And every project can have a custom configuration with my fields, my names for fields, my validations, and my workflows. It's very customizable."
"The task management aspect of Jira is pretty pure. They have a lot of great plugins that really expand your options."
"The adaptability of the Scrum and Kanban boards for other uses, with careful use of the customization features."
"Workflow administration is an easy process, especially with respect to defects."
"We use it for capacity planning. We need to gauge and assess whatever is coming to our pipeline and then everything comes to the pipeline, appears as a pic, and then based on that, we create the story points and we take it from there."
"The product is very easy to understand."
"The most valuable feature of Zoho Projects is all integrated into one. We don't have to start using multiple tools, such as Projects, CRM, Marketing, Automation, Finance, and setting up Meetings. It's all in one solution. I don't have to go to multiple different platforms to have all the features I need."
"It is a scalable solution."
"The product can be seamlessly integrated into our CRM."
"We were able to track each department's work and what they were doing inside the actual department. Gantt charts are useful to track departmental progress and operation, or we are that item stuff."
"The timeline features are excellent."
"Zoho Projects is very flexible and user-friendly."
"We can customize the tool."
"Ease of administration and customization. It is really clunky in this area."
"I have had problems with performance and unresponsiveness. All of a sudden, the performance slowed down, and I had a number of users that could not use the tool."
"In the way it is deployed, I think Jira is too dependent on the third-party applications that are available in its marketplace. If we could get some of the basic functionalities which are offered by these third-party applications, that would be ideal because each time we need a new functionality, we have to purchase a new plugin as an add-on."
"The stability could be improved."
"Some of the interfaces, especially on the administrator side and for permissions, are not so clear. They aren't very user-friendly."
"The pricing is quite high."
"For our company, we're thinking about not only project management solutions but also collaboration solutions, and maybe if Jira had a chart or quick commenting option, it would be great."
"I don't know whether there is a Jira problem or a test risk problem, however, sometimes, we face issues on fetching the reports."
"The solution’s interface should be improved."
"It is not easy to drag and drop a task from one person to the other. I think the resolution for the issue is work in progress. The product's stability can be improved."
"We'd like to have milestone features."
"The telephone support provided by the support team should become better."
"The UI and UX must be improved."
"The solution should improve on integration and customization."
"Zoho Meeting definitely needs an improvement, because the quality is not as good as Zoom or Microsoft Teams, which I've used in the past."
"Sometimes the solution does not work."
