I would suggest Atlassian Jira for large-scale enterprise project management. Atlassian Jira is great for technical teams because Atlassian Jira provides seamless integration with Bitbucket, Jenkins, GitHub, and more. Atlassian Jira automatically updates the issue status and build failures trigger alerts. I think Atlassian Jira is less appropriate for small teams with simple task management needs since they don't require complex workflows or reporting. I believe the Atlassian Jira interface is not user-friendly for non-technical teams.
allowing to show multiple people collaborating on a single story
epics sidebar should stay static when sometimes dragging stories from backlog to a particular epic, the list of epics can jump and can be difficult to get back to the epic you wanted to drag and drop a story into that epic
can be difficult to use a template without impacting other teams you share the same program with
This is because Jira Software generates a huge profit for an affordable price. Having a tool that makes team management transparent and effective is very valuable.
In addition, the renewal of Jira Software and all Atlassian tools is predictable and clear, as the prices are published on the Atlassian website and there is no pyramid of intermediaries.
Atlassian Jira is relatively easy to use, but there are several ways to configure it, which can make it more complicated if you configure it incorrectly. Keeping the customizations and complexity limited to being the project would be suggested to ensure you don't lose in-built Atlassian Jira features, then change the configuration as you find things aren't meeting your exact needs.
I have not had a chance to contact JIRA's customer support. It does offer extensive documentation, although it often feels too technical for me. There is also a JIRA training app that lets you take little lessons and quizzes on different areas (e.g., JIRA basics, agile). I did find it a helpful way to teach myself.
The tool can automate almost any workflow and infrastructure consumption. It has state of the art develop and support with great online training, online full manual set, and a comprehensive support team and network of SIs/VARS that are very qualified.
One of their strong points i stheir documentation. Almost all of the basic set up needed within JIRA is available online through atlassian and its easy to find and very precise. The more critical issues need to be addressed as well and hence the rating of 8 instead of a 9.
Take your time implementing Jira. Make sure you understand how you want to handle your projects and workflows. Investing more time in the implementation can pay off in a long run. It basically took us 5 days to define and implement correctly, but that meant smooth sailing later on.
I have majorly used Atlassian Jira and not Asana as i have only worked it for like a month or two. The vast support with Confluence and Bitbucket makes Atlassian Jira my first choice among all other major player who are competing against each other. I absolutely love using Atlassian Jira and it is my go to application
VMware is too hard to use, too expensive to support, and not a full lifecycle tool for workflows and Infrastructure (no support of physical either). AWS or Azure or Google solutions are good if you are only in the cloud and only using their tools. Not good if you have on-prem or non-Cloud based tools/infrastructure. Build it yourself automation frameworks can be good for people with unlimited funds, but they are not the best way to go and missing many capabilities typically.
Atlassian Jira's robust workflow automation has boosted team efficiency, shortening delivery cycles and driving a positive ROI through improved project management.
Its advanced reporting and integration capabilities have enabled data-driven decisions, aligning operations with key business objectives.
However, the steep learning curve can delay adoption, potentially hindering short-term ROI.
