Overall Satisfaction with Jira Software

We use Jira for bug/improvement tracking and following Agile Methodology. We create tickets for our development work, plan which tickets to pick in the current Sprint, update statuses as the work is completed, and then get them closed. It also has the option to create team-wise boards which let you track the tickets for the whole team in a single place. This helps manage and estimate the work being done by the whole team. It also gets connected with GitLab so when we push something to Git with the commit message having a JIRA ticket number, the same starts to reflect on the ticket. Along with all this, we can comment and track the history of a ticket which makes things easier to track.

Jira is well-suited everywhere where you require creating tickets to track work. It is best used when your organization follows Agile Methodology. It comes with Boards, Backlogs, etc. that allow you to track all the issues in the current Sprint and if some tickets are not completed, they either go to the backlogs or roll over (according to the admin settings). It also lets you create Sprints and you can plan how much work can be done in that time. Good tool!
