Find out in this report how the two Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) Suites solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature of this solution is the source linking on the commit level to git."
"A stable solution with no unplanned downtime."
"This solution focuses on lean methodology which we have found useful and it can also be used on any device."
"The burndown chart is also helpful when it comes to reporting and allows us to know where we are going, especially during development."
"You can record your unit testing, regression testing, UATs, et cetera."
"The timeline management is great."
"It is a very convenient tool. We can organize our sprints through scrum or kanban. There are scrum boards, and there are kanban boards. If you prefer scrum, you can use Jira. If you prefer kanban, you can still use Jira. You can create your kanban boards in a similar way as you create your scrum boards. It is very useful. It also seems to be very popular these days."
"I think one of the most powerful features in Jira is the customization of fields and workflow."
"The most valuable feature is the way the libraries are structured so that they were not folder driven."
"As the solution is highly configurable, it has very poor governance."
"The dashboard reports can be improved. Its dashboard reports are good, but you cannot have complex reports. They are currently very basic. For instance, we can only choose two columns for a dashboard, so it is not friendly enough."
"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."
"A more organized hierarchy is important. Reporting and JQL create issues for me. They do not completely cover the reporting part that I need to report in terms of my capacity to plan. In the same token, there is no record at this very moment to provide me with one export with epics story points, tasks, or issues and their sub-tasks at the same time."
"Sometimes, we create the same bug with two or three different Jira tickets in my company, which leads to duplication, making it an area where improvements are required."
"Some of the customizations are definitely a little challenging."
"The part when it comes to the testing area is a bit hard to handle. The screen is too small, you can't really read what you're typing in, and it's only for the testing area. It looks like they have pressed in more than the UI system could handle to display it properly."
"The solution lacks integration with visualization tools like Power BI or Tableau, which would be beneficial for better insights."
"It doesn't allow you to connect to multiple different tracking tools."
