"Jira is great for story management."
"Jira has a good reporting system. It also has an API, so we can do all sorts of reporting."
"I have found Jira to be scalable."
"Being able to automatize the deployment of the solution has been great."
"The solution's most valuable features revolve around the dashboard view, which has a burndown chart indicating progress."
"In terms of scrum teams, I find that usually, the product backlog depends on charts and especially reports like Sprint Reports. I find the reports to be very useful."
"The initial setup was pretty straightforward."
"The pricing of the product is very good. It's not too expensive"
"The user-experience, enhanced performance, and in-hand governance can be improved."
"Because I am a developer, I would like integration with Git Source Code Management so that for tickets, we can reference the code where the change has happened and where the issue is. This feature might be there, and I probably haven't discovered it."
"The thing I don't like is that it is hard to decide which dropdown options should be selected. When we try and submit it, it will state that there are certain mandates in place. It won't allow us to submit the form unless we fill out all the details."
"There are a limited number of gadgets accessible in Jira; thus, additional ones should be supported."
"Jira can improve by making methodologies better, such as scrum and agile. Additionally, improvements in Kanban boards are needed."
"Something I do not like about the new version is that there is a need to browse all the way back to the beginning, should a person click on a task that is specifically for his group and wish to go back and look at the other portfolios or people."
"I struggle with Epics, how they are implemented in JIRA, because they don't work like any other Story, I see a list of Epics, but although I can order them, there are some mismatches with how the Epics are used compared to what Scrum expects, or what Story mapping expects an Epic to be."
"Jira lacks easy capacity calculation compared to TFS, making it harder to know how much work to allocate to each specialist."
"It is not intuitive."
