"The stability of JIRA Service Management is good."
"The most valuable features of this solution are Incident and Request Management."
"The most valuable feature of JIRA Service Management is a plugin we are using for the front end for simple user forms."
"It makes the IT department more transparent and helps the employees."
"One of the main advantages of JIRA is that it can be customized for our solutions. I live in Iran and we translated some parts of it into Persian and customized it with extra features. We hid other features to customize it right to the point. We provide this solution for our customers."
"Useful for tracking issues with development."
"The solution is very stable."
"With Jira, we were unable to implement time-based automation in its ticketing system. We would like a feature where we can define tickets based on severity, then tickets are automatically escalated to the next level after a set period of time if they go unanswered."
"The documentation needs improving, it's difficult to find specific procedures."
"I think the performance can be better."
"JIRA Service Management could include more AI features."
"There should be better connections with access management. They should improve the connectivity."
"A lot of users have said that they want a feature that was on the on-prem version of Jira and the vendor can't deliver. They're either unwilling or unable to give feature parity."
"Usability needs improvement. To configure it, you need to be well versed in Jira administration. It's not very intuitive."
"The queries are weak and lack advanced functionality. You can do rudimentary queries, but you can't aggregate. You can't filter for a lot of things that would be useful, so you need to use plugins to write writing advanced queries. I run into problems when working with different organizations because they always have restrictions on what kind of plugins they allow."
"The integration with other applications can use improvement because, for example, it was nearly impossible to integrate SolarWinds Service Desk with monday.com because we had to get an add-on from Zapier."
