Atlassian Service Collection, with Jira Service Management vs. Bitrix24

Great to manage your issues in a clear and centralised way. If your development teams work with Jira, it will all naturally come together. Great way to manage the issues from end to end. - Very flexible if you have people who understands the set up and is able to configure it for your needs - Maybe not the best if you want something with very easy set up

Bitrix24 is a unified platform with all features in one place. It has a smooth deployment and implementation process. The software boosts teams' productivity and ensures flawless collaboration. Pricing of the software is incredibly affordable. It is highly customizable and a scalable CRM solution.

• Highly configurable Notification Scheme, allowing free customization on who receives notifications and when
• Ability to add extra features through the highly diverse Atlassian Marketplace.
• Simple and highly customizable ticket interface. The Software can be almost completely branded in every aspect to represent your organization.
• Integration with Jira Software allows support tickets to be moved into other Log Term projects as necessary.

• Huge opportunities for customization, integration with other services. Easy search for solutions to setup questions.
• The ability to write letters directly from the system with the help of a binding for working mail.
• The presence of an application for Android. This helps to get access anywhere.

• Some of the built-in functions and workflows are surprisingly limited given the fact that you can customize a lot with JQL. These limited areas do not allow you to use JQL. For instance, the built-in notifications are lacking. They have one that is great-- "notify on critical ticket creation"-- EXCEPT that it does not allow you to notify a group or anything, only individual users.
• The ticket interface is a little odd for agents. Changing the status is not a simple drop down from unassigned to open to in progress to pending, etc. There are a couple of tabs ("investigate", "pending", "workflow") where you can change the status in different ways. Maybe I am just not used to this way of doing it, but I feel like it could be simplified.
• It can get complicated deleting/changing some of the out-of-the-box fields and rules, because you never know what will break workflows or other automated/built-in features.

Incentivized

• It's user interface can use some work. Although it doesn't take as long as some other software to learn, there is still a bit of a learning curve when it comes to day to day usage.
• Bitrix offers a lot of features. It would be nice to have those features laid out in an easier-to-read layout, versus the long list at the side of the page.
• It's mobile app functionality is quite limited. It can be difficult to work with other team members, solely off of their mobile app.

Pricing is attractive

It has become the central nervous system of the business and has constantly proven to be of value. We are not just renewing but might even upgrade to advanced Bitrix24 plans and will be adding more user licenses in the next 3 months. Bitrix24 has a sharper learning curve initially. However once it is surpassed, it opens doors to a range of creative deployment strategies

If you're used to other tools in the Atlassian ecosystem, you'll feel right at home with JSM. It's also a platform that technical folk can easily pick up. However, I wouldn't recommend using JSM as a company's first jumping off point into Atlassian. There are a lot of other 'newer' tools that provide sleeker ITSM systems at a similar cost.

This application is a complete scam and way over priced for what you are getting. They are filled full of false advertising and false statements regarding integrations. They claim to integrate with quickbooks and they DO NOT. This software accomplished nothing but making our day to day lives more difficult and wasted months of our time attempting to build out.

Product is stable and it improved the availability

I can't recall any instance of unplanned outages over the past 1 year of use. Likewise for application errors. However note that, advanced users will have a learning curve

Accessing Jira Service Management is easy and fast.

Technical performance is 10/10 so far. Cannot comment about integrations since we currently haven't tested those

I gave JIRA a 9 rating since for me JIRA works according to its purpose. Since there is a customer portal, our clients can leave a comment or communicate with us using the PR ticket that way it is easier for us to also request any additional information we need for our investigation.

It comes with a lot of features for managing customers relation for making a dynamic marketing strategy. Sharing and attaching any type of file makes our work much easier for our portfolio. I personally don’t like its customer service that needs to be vigilant and should know the way they should treat their clients

Online Training from Atlassian was really Good to effectively deploy, manage, and utilize Jira Service Management. It really improved the overall Operational Efficiency and productivity of end users in the organization. Training gives the confidence to use Jira Service Management for all of the Product engineering, Application support, and Infrastructure engineering support team members.

Online Training was good and informative for new users adopting Jira Service Management. The Training helped to understand the product features, customization capabilities, and integration options with various tools in an enterprise organization, so the overall productivity and efficiency are improved at Blue Yonder. It also helps to timely address the incident tickets, user stories, and track and close them in a timely manner.

Overall the training was very comprehensive. The trainer did provider necessary additional reading materials as well. However the general approach at Bitrix24 is to divert users to self-help documentation and videos. It is recommended that atleast 1-2 personnel in the organization be "Bitrix24 experts" so that lower phases of training requirements are covered internally itself. Also the best part about Bitrix24 is that not all users need to go very deep while using it. We have multiple counsellors who started using it on day 2 without any major hiccups

We chose Jira Service Management due to its easy integrations with the rest of the Atlassian tools, as we have also invested in those. For the price, the ability to add or remove agents, and the cost being reflected in that, it was an excellent medium for us. For the foreseeable future, I do not see us moving off this platform.

The plethora of features and also the beta ones like CRM Analytics, Sales center, and Online Store. I forgot you can also build an online store too. For the value, ease of use, features, this is one of the best to use. It's a time saver from changing from one app to another, just use one. It is a one-stop CRM. If you are a startup you can begin with this and then slowly get on a paying option. The free offers a lot too. This platform can grow with your business and help save time too.

In Blue Yonder, we have deployed across multiple departments and geographical sites as needed.

The scalability and reliability is almost 9.5/10 to be honest. We istarted with Bitrix24 for just 2 functions and now have expanded its usage to 2 more. In terms of users, every full-time employee (FTE) now uses Bitrix24 without fail. We are also working on giving limited/partial access to external service providers

• It has allowed us to take on a larger volume of work at a faster pace.
• We have established best practices with the tool that we have taught and sold to clients.
• It has allowed for further collaboration with a larger team.

• Positive Impact:
• Bitrix24's comprehensive communication and collaboration features have a positive impact on businesses by streamlining workflows, enhancing team coordination, and boosting productivity. By offering a centralized platform for project management and communication, Bitrix24 helps teams save time, minimize inefficiencies, and make well-informed decisions. This improved efficiency and collaboration result in better project outcomes, quicker time-to-market, and increased customer satisfaction, all of which contribute to a positive return on investment (ROI).
• Negative Impact:
• Despite the range of features and benefits, Bitrix24's complexity and learning curve can present challenges for new users. The initial investment of time and effort required for onboarding and becoming familiar with the platform may temporarily impact productivity. Additionally, if organizations do not fully leverage all the available features or if Bitrix24 doesn't align well with their specific business processes, it may result in a negative impact on the return on investment (ROI).
