About Jira

With Jira, there's no shortage of ways to stay in the loop. Whether you prefer to receive updates via email, chat, or by checking in on your mobile device, Jira has you covered. At your desk or on the go with the new mobile interface, Jira helps your team get the job done.

Issues are everywhere: Tasks, ideas, and requests are hiding in documents, people's heads, and deep in your inbox. Use Jira to capture and organize your team's issues, prioritize and take action on what's important, and stay up to date with what's going on around you. Jira makes all of this easy, so your team can spend less time managing the work and more time building great software.

Work the way you want: Your process is at the heart of everything you do. Don't shoehorn your team's work into the default workflow defined by your project tracker. Jira has workflows to match your existing processes, that you can easily adapt as your team evolves. Use the tool that fits your team, don't change your team to fit your tool.

Productive, powerful planning: Teams that need to be effective and efficient choose Jira to help them capture, assign, and prioritize their work. Ensure that everyone on your team knows exactly what needs to be done when, then watch the job get done flawlessly. And when you add the power of agile to Jira– with the Jira Agile add-on – you can even plan agile sprints!

Collaborate easily: On any team, it's important that people can easily share information and reach out for help when they need it. JIRA's simple, intuitive interface allows you to collaborate with teammates and get the job done more efficiently. If you think that's awesome, you'll love it even more when you combine JIRA's @mentions and assignment features with the power of Confluence and HipChat.

Visibility at the speed of light: Watch the issues that are most important to you, monitor activity streams, and share information with powerful dashboards, wallboards, and more. With Jira, you'll always know what's going on.

Collect, service, and report: With Jira Service Desk, the Jira platform becomes a modern, flexible service desk experience that streamlines customer requests and boosts your IT team's efficiency.

Agile project management: These days, just keeping track of your work isn't enough – you've got to be agile. Jira Agile adds agile project management to the power of JIRA.

    Once we got past the learning phase, Jira significantly improved our project efficiency and collaboration. I highly recommend it for teams seeking to enhance productivity.

    Pros

    Jira’s flexibility and customizable workflows are fantastic for tailoring project management to any team’s needs. Its integration with tools like Confluence and Bitbucket enhances collaboration, and the reporting features provide valuable insights.

    Cons

    The initial learning curve can be steep, making it overwhelming for new users. Configuring advanced workflows might also be complex.

    Found it hard to get adoption from the team because they struggled with the interface.

    Pros

    Convenient that it is part of the wider atlassian suite of products, making it easier to integrate if you already have other systems set up.

    Cons

    Not the most intuitive or user friendly, and expensive option when other services offer similar features for much less.

    I really like Jira, it keeps everyone in the organization involved and accountable to their portion of work, and takes out the weight of trying to remember and write down everything that is needed from you. You can just login and refresh your mind!

    Pros

    Jira makes it very easy to make sure no aspects of a project are overlooked or skipped when moving with speed within our organization! Every step is documented and visible, keeping organization throughout time sensitive projects!

    Cons

    It took me a bit to understand the different dashboard views within Jira, jumping to see just my tasks, all projects I'm apart of, and kanban views. I know it well now, but I remember some initial frustrations with that when first learning the system
