"Jira's collaborative features, such as comments, notifications, and real-time updates, facilitate better communication."
"Our company follows the Agile methodology for software development, and this product is one of the best tools for companies that do so."
"I like it for team collaboration and task management. I also like its analytics and dashboards."
"The way we can define and customize the search queries for the tickets in Jira is most valuable."
"I feel the strongest feature of Jira is its workflow engine. It helps us automate our workflows within our organization. It's the one characteristic of Jira which I think can help any organization, be it in any domain."
"The dashboard and reports tracking and the setup updates quickly, I am very impressed with those features. Additionally, it is user-friendly."
"Scaling the product wouldn't be difficult."
"The most valuable feature is the flexibility of the configuration, being able to configure it to suit your own needs."
"The search and replace feature within the tool itself could be improved."
"The solution has a very small market share in China. It's almost like a startup."
"We would like to see more industry-specific features that are tailored to the vertical markets."
"Usability needs to be improved."
"It would be helpful if Codebeamer's overall processing and integration with software like Jira could be improved."
"Certain areas in Codebeamer could be improved, like addressing small issues, glitches, or bugs."
"I would like to see more, easily trackable reports."
"The product's UI is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"I'm mostly focusing on the requirements traceability with my thesis, the integration could improve for other tools. The companies are not only using Jira. For example, for the test cases or for the documents templates, we are using Polarion and we have been having some integration issues."
"Jira could be more, for example, like Micro Focus, which is what I mostly work with currently."
"I would like to see more integration available with more tools."
"Jira can improve by making methodologies better, such as scrum and agile. Additionally, improvements in Kanban boards are needed."
"In JIRA, it's a bit complex in terms of what advanced search queries we use. Sharing them is also a problem. Because TFS is on the cloud, we can easily save that query and share it with our team members."
"it would be helpful to have a better tutorial for learning and to have a better understanding of what the features are and what they do."
"There is a difference between their cloud and their server versions. The next-gen project, which is an advanced feature that allows you to visualize the road map of your delivery over multiple products and over time, is not available yet for the sever version. It appears there in the list, but it's still not right. I've tried to use it many times and I am watching the device show their tracker, but it seems they intentionally want this to increase the utilization of the cloud instead of the server. It is really a nice feature and it's a shame that we don't have it."
"The only thing that JIRA doesn't for us is release management in a way that I can create a list of versions easily."
