They have a helpdesk for it. When you want to create a cluster, it can help you."
"The initial setup was a little bit complex."
"We have experienced errors with the internal server that occurs frequently."
"Jira Align's user interface needs improvement because its user experience is really bad."
"One of the biggest issues I found in the new version was once we clicked on one of the tasks that were specifically for our group and went to look at the other portfolios in other areas we had to browse all the way back to the beginning. If you click the back button, it would not work, it stayed the same place. Additionally, if you click on page B, but then you wanted to go back to page A it would not go back to page A. You would have to browse back to the portfolio and then find your group again and open it. This was the only issue that I had with it and I am not sure if it is a Jira issue or it was because of the way the site was laid out."
"Lacks sufficient reporting capabilities."
"With Jira, an issue that arises is the length of time it takes to show certain data."
"I think that front-end development is a little bit buggy in some cases. Some of the features take a while to respond and some need to be more clear."
"Converting a task into an epic is very troublesome."
"JIra is very poor at reporting."
"This solution is not able to be integrated with other solutions because you have to upgrade it and pay for more licensing."
"The interface JIRA Portfolio could improve."
"The product could do with more flexible reporting."
"Another thing could be to have an easy way to manage the Portfolio and have more ways to share and to show graphics and reports"
