Jira worth the effor

The learning curve is a little step for some people, creating filters and build dashboards is not necessary obvious. Reading and watching tutorials is worth while.

JIRA helps manage issues and projects
What do you like best about the product?
We implemented Jira a few years ago and I really like how issues can be linked together to follow the progression of a project. Jira is very flexible as we use it for product requests and a tools to manage projects. With due dates and the ability to customize you can make it do whatever your organization needs. I like that Jira provides workload management tools such as dashboards and kanban boards that you can customize based on your needs.
What do you dislike about the product?
Jira runs a little slow at times, so speed is sometimes a concern. When implementing I would spend some time in how it is configured and how it's installed. I would also like templates added to better use some of the tools out if the box. Dashboards are a great tool, but gadget are individual java programs that you add, so if you are adding a multiple it sometimes takes a while to load which is concerning.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Jira for tracking bugs and enhancements. We have found that Jira does well in helping us organize and prioritize issues. Jira allows for the creation of dashboards for your team to highlight issues when coming into the office.Dashbaords have gadgets which allow you to add workload breakdowns, metrics and analytics along with assigned to or issues that your are tracking in once convenient area. Jira also provides a great collaboration tool to prioritize workload with other teams using kanban boards.

Jira’s great!

We use Jira at work for managing tech issues, it’s easy to keep track of progress on Jira.

It’s not the most intuitive platform. I feel like a person couldn’t log onto Jira for the first time and automatically figure out how to navigate it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Bug tracking
Good for tracking the work
What do you like best about the product?
As you can create the entire hierarchy of the project structure (Company -> Teams/Projects -> Tickets) it is easy to track all the work that is being done throughout your company. You can tag people, log the time, link your work outside JIRA and other cool stuff here. You can have your own dashboard which tells you the progress of work being done in your team. It further has proper authorization so that only the concerned people can edit the information.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are too many links on the UI which can, at first impression, be intimidating for a new user to catch up.

Not much to dislike other than it’s complexity. It just takes a while to get used to and getting the team to also spend time to learn and use the resource was a little rough.
