Likelihood to Recommend Well suited for any size company which needs CRM management. Easy to use. Great for individuals or teams that use Apple products. Daylite and ios expert integration has been key in capturing leads from our website into the Daylite database, plus then if they opt into email marketing, they are entered into the MailChimp database. The web forms also automate the creation of opportunities and are linked with the contacts/companies. Sales Managers with geographical responsibilities can easily filter contacts or projects based on these regions so they only see what they need. Daylite is not appropriate for Windows users.
Read full review 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.
Read full review Pros Daylite allows you to link your email so when you email a client it will link to their contact in Daylite and save the communication so anyone on the team can see all the emails that have been sent between the client and our company. Daylite allows you to create "opportunities" for the different packages and services we offer. This lets us track where someone is in the process, if they are still thinking about a service, have been sold on it, or are not interested. Daylite lets you leave notes on the account that everyone on the team can see. This has been so helpful for our company because it lets us drop helpful notes on personal things about the client that would be good for everyone to know.

Sometimes I face a lot of retries to log into the account. The mobile app needs a change and needs an upgrade. Apps are lacking in giving appointment reminders on time. Sometimes it does not notify on the right time about the appointment with the client. Read full review 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. Read full review Usability Easy to use for Mac OS users. Not possible for Windows Users. I will still give a rating of 10, though.
Read full review Support Rating The team at Marketcircle has always been good at support and usually quick to respond and usually under 1 hour. Keep up the good work here!
Read full review Alternatives Considered Daylite provides authentic services and features with excellent programming. I have also collaborated on the Daylite calendar with Apple Calendar so that I can never leave behind any updates of the future. Moreover, it keeps on updating its feature for giving better services.
Read full review 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.
Read full review Return on Investment Daylite has been very helpful for new employees to answer their own questions about contacts/passwords, etc. We found the tiny notification bell to be weak, sometimes a project comes in with a tight deadline and we have to double-check and ask an employee if they saw the notification. More time would be saved by just chatting about the project and its expectations. A huge benefit is the institutional knowledge that can be had by reading past projects. We've tracked everything, so the history is there. Read full review 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.
