Overall Satisfaction with Jira Software

Jira Software is being commonly used by various teams across our organization, and by our business partners. Various types of software teams are using Jira: software development, testing, DevOps, Validation as well as Business Development/Product Owners all have access to their customized Jira boards. It allows the business to deal with software projects lifecycle control and documentation over all stages of the project starting from pre-sales, through scoping and requirements formulation, development, testing, implementation, and finally with maintenance and support.
  • Great customization of processes and instances.
  • Easily configurable across various teams.
  • Easy to learn and use with minimal training.
  • API-integrations could be better implemented.
  • Bulk-uploading can be clumsy and require a lot of diligence to use.
  • Easy to learn and use.
  • Great customization abilities.
  • Compatibility with other Atlasssian suite element, especially with Confluence.
  • Reduced time of training for team members.
  • Streamlined and unified business processes across teams.
After several years of using both of those, I very much prefer Jira. Customizability is much better, as well as compatibility with other solutions. Jira is also a lot more intuitive and makes more sense when it comes to configuration and building your own boards and instances.

Jira is best used when you have bigger projects with plenty of dependencies and levels of granularity. You can create your own customized instances and have them positioned in the process as much as your business process needs through various stages of the project lifecycle. Jira can very well handle small projects as well, but there are smaller, more basic project-management tools that could be used for those projects.
