Chose Jira Software
Jira Software has more integrations and has more features than many of its competitors. While some of its competitors do have better UI/UX than Jira Software, they have improved this greatly over time. Atlassian also acquired Trello years ago, so that adds better user …
JIRA was already in place when I joined the company, but it is better and easier to work with than anything I have worked with in the past. My last shop used RALLY and it was a total pain to grasp. JIRA offers more flexibility and setup options with your configuration.
Jira had the full package and had a lot of options as a task management tool, good for tickets and a complex user management interface to split up permissions within our company and for our clients. We can integrate with Bitbucket and work through tickets development, design …

Chose Jira Software
I wasn't the decisionmaker but knew JIRA was the latest in database technology and was glad to everyday user experience with its functionality and capabilities. Several industries and large organizations have chosen JIRA but again, it depends on how strong and aware your …
I was not at the company when JIRA was chosen and we have been using the software for for long that it would be a large hurdle to overcome to switch to a different utility at this point in time. I have researched Trello and Asana and found them to offer many comparable features.

Chose Microsoft Project
Each project has different needs and we switch back and forth. We often find Microsoft Office to be too generic for specific purposes, in which case we gravitate towards domain-specific tools, such as JIRA for software project management.
MS Project is better at organizing a project from a timing standpoint. I feel that JIRA's strengths are in real time collaboration, assignment of tasks, and bringing to resolution. We had utilized both products together since they kind of fill these needs that the other product …
Microsoft Project will continue to be my tool of choice for high stakes high complexity projects with over 100 tasks and many requirements to control costs and delivery but the assumption is that a dedicated PM is needed to keep the file updated and manage communication with …
At the end of the day, Microsoft Project still is best in class overall. It isn't as specialized as some tools like Trello or JIRA, but especially with new integration with Planner and native support for Agile project management templates it becomes a lot closer. Microsoft …
I can't remember because it was many years ago. But Microsoft Project was very affordable and had a much larger set of features. Also the stability of its technology, as well as the number of existing users, the abundant documentation and the possibility of having well-defined …
Dependency tracking and automated task management helped its raking above other competitors in the usage. Microsoft support and updates are also reliable. Security is also good for this tool. UI is also good and task management is very effective. Integrations are also easy.
Project is comprehensive and many project professionals are familiar with it, however the other tools are more business user friendly. Little training needed, Airtable and Trello are more intuitive so anyone can make updates and understand progress.
Microsoft Project needs to do better job on the flexibility and user interface of the software. The colors used by monday.com and shortcuts they have provided are much smoother. However, Microsoft project is more compatible with other Microsoft products like excel which gives …
Microsoft Project was selected because it integrates well with other Microsoft products and has better tracking and visualization tools that can be used with different projects.
MS Project was superior to Proventia. Much more intuitive tool. MS Project was more robust, offered more functionality, and offered better reporting options. As noted earlier, MS Project was more flexible as it can manage the full portfolio of projects from small to large …
While many of the above tools are extremely well-versed, Microsoft Project's largest advantage comes from it being related to the largest business productivity company in the world. Project does have its sharing limitations - but regardless, offers one of the most robust tools …
Microsoft Project (online version) gives you the chance to do native collaboration using other Microsoft Tools and gather around with all the resources available in your company to set up communications standards, commitments and quality assurance guidelines, and most of all to …
