Avaza vs. YouTrack

We are a pretty unique business because we deal with bookkeeping, marketing, and HR and across all 3 departments, we have been able to successfully use the tool. Other software we have tried usually caters to one industry at a time.

We use it for both support and project management alike. It's not as bloated or indeed as expensive as Jira, so unless you have particularly complex requirements, YouTrack fits the bill in pretty much the same use cases as Jira does.

The interface is also a good deal nicer on the eye and less clunky than a lot of the Open Source (eg. Redmine) and enterprise (eg. Remedy).

It does have a customisable workflow for things like ticket age alerts. We don't make a great deal of use of this and had found that it can take a little fiddling if you want something very bespoke but it is clearly quite powerful.

• It switches between Kanban view, List view, and Gantt charts which fits varying preferences!
• It helps us work smart by creating dependencies and linking tasks to calendars
• It has a clean, intuitive dashboard that's very easy to navigate

• Orginaization
• Aesthetics
• Utility

• The interface and taxonomy could use an update, sometimes it's hard to figure out where things logically are or should be.

• We're actually very happy YouTrack users and have yet to come across a scenario where any of the team felt the product was lacking.

Because it has been amazing and easy to work with.

Avaza is very easy to use, but the mobile app needs work.

They are always available and open to doing a call or a shared screen to walk through the issues.

Avaza takes the easy of Asana and adds the invoicing and bookkeeping capabilities you need all in one place.

You Track holds it's own against Jira considering the price difference. Jira does allow for more customization and can do more ultimately but You Track is not to be trifled with. With a powerfully intuitive UI it can arguably be a better choice for certain companies and individuals alike. They really did a great job.

• Avaza has made it easier to see how long I spend on certain types of projects and where I could be spending more time.

Incentivized

• YouTrack is inexpensive and isn't something we question the value of when it comes to renewal
• The team and our clients have positive things to say about the product. This is often not the case with JIRA in my experience. Some snobbier project managers from other companies will grumble about software like YouTrack because it isn't familiar to them, but this attitude is misleading and unfair as the product is every bit as capable.
