RICHARD Jean-Jacques
Project Manager at Allianz
Good documentation, good visualization of tickets, and relatively stable
Pros and Cons
- "The documentation is very well done."
- "JIra is very poor at reporting."
What other advice do I have?
In general, we are on a server configuration and not a cloud solution. That means, each year we have that specific version until we update it. I suppose since we have installed the JIRA Portfolio in January, it's the last version. However, I'm not sure. I'd rate the solution eight out of ten overall.

- "Jira is a little bit old fashioned, it could be more user friendly."
What other advice do I have?
My advice to anyone thinking about Jira is that it would be wise to at least find out the most crucial functions that you need in the product, what features are most important, determine how the project will use Jira, and the most important thing is to have some kind of user training plan because the tool is so complex and flexible that you can use it in many, many different ways. On a scale of one to ten, I would give Jira a nine. I would give it a nine because of course it needs some improvements. For example, the usability and its speed.
