Atlassian Jira Align, formerly known as AgileCraft, is a versatile tool that helps teams align their Scrum efforts with overall strategy and maintain connectivity. Users have found that the software integrates seamlessly with the agile development process, allowing program managers to effectively prepare funding requests and demonstrate value for the invested money. With AgileCraft, teams can efficiently plan and manage deliveries, forecast budgets, and engage in multiple release planning at the program level. The software also enables teams to create informative dashboards and capture key metrics, facilitating effective presentations to higher management. On a day-to-day basis, AgileCraft assists with running daily scrum meetings and providing clarity on each team member's work. It further aids distributed teams by facilitating estimation using planning poker games and tracking action items in retrospectives. For scrum masters, assigning and tracking action items to stakeholders becomes a streamlined process. Moreover, AgileCraft proves invaluable in managing sprint ceremonies for distributed teams and provides program-level tracking for both value-added and cost-related aspects.

In addition to Jira Align, organizations find immense value in utilizing Jira as a project management tool. This software is widely adopted across various departments to streamline work tracking and coordination among Product, Engineering, and Business Operations teams. Particularly praised by software developers and other employees involved in product development, Jira effectively tracks work tickets while enabling progress monitoring, task assignment, and management of product support bugs and issues. Its versatility allows for easy communication of updates, statuses, issues, and requests across multiple internal teams. Technical teams greatly appreciate Jira's capability to accurately track and conduct their work while maintaining visibility across different teams. The software showcases its adaptability through customization options that suit organizations engaged in multiple IT projects simultaneously. By creating and tracking tickets for different projects, checking issue status, assigning tasks to multiple departments, and viewing work logs, Jira empowers organizations' project management endeavors. Furthermore, it acts as a database of past work, fixes, and a goal check and planner for releases per sprint. Notably, Jira Align facilitates the seamless linking of current developments to business outcomes without disrupting Agile teams' work, proving useful for company leadership. Additionally, Jira serves as an excellent tool for efficient management of Magento website developers by ensuring smooth tracking throughout the software development life cycle, including requirements finalization, sprint planning, execution, and delivery. With its ability to provide insights on upcoming release features and support the management of product release cycles, Jira proves invaluable in preparing the support team for new product features.

Every bug reported internally by other employees at the company, or any bug found by the customer in our tool is filed on Jira. All the work-related planning, workflow of the fix, the bug life cycle, is tracked on Jira. The visibility is cross-team and other teams can track other teams' progress. There is also a feature of EPIC where a bug can be clubbed with other bug fixes under the same umbrella.

It is used across all SDLC-related projects to track the activities and progress of the projects. It is used as a database of all the work we have done in the past, fixes made. It is used as a goal check and a planner that gives a pretty good estimate revolving around releases per sprint.

We use Jira across our Product, Engineering, and Business Operations teams in order to coordinate projects and create product roadmaps. We use it for sprint planning and assigning tasks and tickets between our engineering team. We also use Jira for product support bugs and issues. Jira helps all our teams stay organized and aligned on different projects.

Jira is used across multiple business units within our organization, but not exclusively. Jira allows us to track and communicate issues/updates/statuses/requests across many internal teams. We also use Jira to build and manage extensive workflows that allow each team to understand their work, ownership and give visibility into time tracking. Jira ensures that all technical teams can accurately track and conduct their work with visibility across the teams that are not directly involved. Jira also allows for communication across these teams for questions and requests, so that everything does not have to be managed via never-ending email chains, etc.

Jira is currently being used as a project management tool within our organization. It began its use at the corporate level and an attempt was made to spread this across many other departments. It was an attempt to align different departments under one reporting tool, making it easier for everyone to be on the same page.

Atlassian Jira Align (formerly Agile Craft) is used by all the software, firmware, and test engineering teams. Any groups that need to track work on software tasks find these useful, and teams that interface with them then pick up the tools to communicate projects, tasks, and priorities to them. It is NOT used by outside teams, even within engineering. Mechanical Engineering is a great example, where interface directly to software teams is limited, and work tracking can be done in more traditional or personalized ways, and collaboration is usually done differently. They probably COULD use Jira, but many people prefer not to or dislike adjusting to new ways of tracking themselves.

Atlassian Jira is an efficient project management tool that we have been using for the past three years. Especially to the IT department, it has provided us with the most efficient operation in an Agile Scrum development framework. Using it exhaustively for the past few years it has helped us to organize and monitor software development and support effectively. Being in the retail sector we have had multiple issues organizing production and implementation of different software programs over different verticals. Atlassian Jira helped us to organize those tenuous developments under one roof. Jira is highly flexible and customizable as per the projects that you have and across different departments. The customization of features in Jira enables your organization to develop and implement various IT projects at the same time. Jira makes the whole process more effective and efficient.

We have been using Jira Align as an enterprise-grade solution to enable the company leadership to link current developments to business outcomes. It is important for us to be able to achieve this without disrupting the work of Agile teams. Because of this tool, we believe all areas of the team benefit from it, although it is mainly used by leadership teams.

I'm the manager of our e-commerce business. I use JIRA to manage our Magento website developers. Whether the developers are here in the US or overseas (we've used both), JIRA is the perfect tool for project management. It helps me to ensure my projects are done in an efficient manner and I love the project estimate tool.

It is being used for multiple different projects to create new tickets and track already created queues for Production, UAT, and Enhancement tickets. It allows us to check the status of each issue, assign to multiple departments, and see work logs in one ticket for the issue affecting multiple aspects of the product. We have dashboards created for easier access of necessary queues.

We use this software for the tracking of the software development life cycle. That includes, requirements finalization, business ideas, prioritizing a sprint plan, executing sprints, and delivering items marked done. The software is used daily by our employees for tracking purposes. Everyone logs their activities and manages progress by entering relevant activities performed.

AgileCraft can be used for planning & delivery management for teams practicing scrum. We do budget forecasting , multiple release plannings using this tool at program level. We create Dashboards & captured key metrics which are presented to higher management. At team level it can be used to run daily scrum since teams are distributed at multiple locations where team can burn their hours in AgileCraft during scrum meeting itself providing more clarity where each associate is working. For estimation, planning poker game is available enabling distributed teams to estimate where stories can be pulled directly from product backlog. Other than stories, defects and test case management, it can be used to run retrospectives where action items can be captured, assigned & tracked. Scrum master can easily assign to stakeholders & track the action items to closure. AgileCraft can be used to manage sprint ceremonies effectively for distributed teams along with program level tracking for value & cost.
