What do you dislike about the product?
Initially I find it little difficult to use it but over the time I was able to understand the tool, so yes interface can be improved.
I have been working in multiple projects in my organization, sometime I find it difficult to switch between sprints or stories of different project. Basically I found it difficult to search if I do not have a story id.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Yes I do recommend others to use this tool as it improves the understanding between the business and the software development team, in order to provide an efficient solution.
In case you are tired of manually maintaining your requirements, updates to it, application solution implemented for it, here is a cool tool which helps to do all that for you.
Being a developer one more reason I why would recommend this tool is because it has a great connectivity with other code development tool like Subversion (for code repository), Fisheye (Code reviews), Confluence (maintaining live documentation for design and architecture).

Jira is pretty awesome
What do you like best about the product?
I like the clarity of issues. They come in nice. I like that my customers can leave me a 1-5 star rating. I love the ease of use for both us and the clients.

Don't default comments to public. I had to apologize to a client because something meant to go to a colleague got sent to the customer and I offended them because how dare I use capital letters.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Benefits include: meticulous stat tracking, ability to tag others and add as participants and watchers.
The best tool for project management
What do you like best about the product?
The best tool for project management and bug tracking currently we are using this tool for project management.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is no help guide how to use this project management tool, if help guide also provide this tool is effectively used by the companies.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using this product as issue tracker what are the are raised by the testers they will add as a issue then we will resolve those issues.
I've yet to find a project tracker that I like, but I hate JIRA the least.
What do you like best about the product?
Of all the project management tools I've used, JIRA is the most intuitive, most customizable, and all around the least annoying. It has lots of cool integrations like working with slack and being able to tie into github issues.
What do you dislike about the product?
Project trackers take time away from completing projects. The step of having to update a program with things that I've already done, is, by definition, taking time away from completing other tasks. That being said, they are a necessary evil.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Project management and transparency,
eCommerce Coordinator email blast request platform.
What do you like best about the product?
What I like best about Jira is that if in the middle of a project there is an update I can easily communicate that to our third party vendor without taking up too much time. For instance after we submit for an email blast to be created our design team came back and wanted something changed last minute. All I had to do was go into Jira, remove the old graphic upload the new updated version and make the comment in the comments section. Its a lot easier than trying to call the person and deal with the chit chat before getting down to business. And all its easier than email because when you send the email you're not entirely sure when they will see the email. Whereas with Jira you know they are in there working on your request already so they will see it a lot quicker.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'm not sure what the cause of the issue is but in the past I have had issues with the functionality of the JIRA. For instance I would go to make a email blast request in JIRA and I would click on the create button and it would open the dialogue box where I fill in all the fields for my request. I would reach out to our point of contact and they would say I have to right click the create button if I was having trouble. It would normally work but not all the time. If I had to right click the create button the system just seemed to run slower if that was the case.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I would say JIRA is helping solve Communication and time management. Projects that include several people are very hard to manage. Usually we would experience a lot of bottle necks in our process because people would not see emails and because they wouldn't realize a deadline and let a project fall by the way side. Because Jira can involve everyone at the same time and keep everyone update to with the status of the project we are able to communicate better as well as manage time. For instance if I see that someone is still working on their piece I can start queuing up my part with another coworkers info that has already been provided in Jira instead of having to wait on the middle man.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
My recommendation to other considering JIRA would be to make sure you discuss with your team before hand what the implementation of JIRA will be and set expectations in terms of interaction. We have issues with people not executing projects properly even though the expectation of the project are drawn out clearly in JIRA. Such as we set a launch date and call it out in two different place on the ticket in JIRA and they still get the launch date wrong. Or we have had issues with people still not using the correct graphic. The issue may start after they download out of JIRA. But you will want to set expectations.
Keeps me up to date on bugs, fixes and what our DEVs are up to.
What do you like best about the product?
As I am not a dev, I am using it more in a monitoring role. I love being able to check in on any bugs and fixes in the works at any time.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not being a dev, some things are a bit over my head on how a system like this works and the verbiage. But that is understandable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Working at reducing client churn. This system allows me to keep an eye on any feature issues and relay status to these high risk clients.
Great solution for our Marketing Team
What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to adjust where you are in your sprint and see what tasks you have left to complete in order to be on schedule with the burndown. It's great to be able to add comments and files to initiatives so everything is in one place.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's easy to be in the wrong project so you have to make sure you are looking at the right dashboard when you log in. The interface is a bit cold and could be modernized. It takes a long time to get everything set up but once it is in there its easy to maneuver.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it for our marketing sprints which is unique and not typical for marketing teams but we have a lot of work that we put out that is tangible and requires a lot of help from different teammembers so it's nice having it all in one location. It also makes it easy to accurately prioritize which tasks are the most valuable to complete first, often something that is not done for marketing teams.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You would need someone who is familiar with scrum to set up the dashboard correctly otherwise it would be a bit confusing for a beginner. There is a lot of settings and configurations that you can play with so it can be a really advanced tool for experts admins.
One of the best project management software JIRA
What do you like best about the product?
The best part about using JIRA is it supports usage of agile boards and kanban. We can expect the high quality reports and is very easy to use. The features like customization of work flows, screens, importing issues from git hub are very impressive. One of the best thing about JIRA is its very own JQL tool to write queries. This is very easy to use and is very helpful
What do you dislike about the product?
It is costly. This is one of my biggest dislikes about JIRA. I know that we need big bucks for the best software. For a person to understand JIRA initially is troublesome because of the multiple options and keys in the tool. Being on a cloud platform we often times find the software working slow. It takes time to understand the software
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
we maintain our bug tracking and project management using JIRA. Integrating it with other software is helping a lot. JIRA helps in managing multiple projects under one roof which is very helpful for the team
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is very helpful for bug tracking and project management. The integration of Github is something that is very appreciable. One of the best project management tools available in the market, and I recommend it because it is worth the money we spend

Collaborating as a medium sized (~20 people) team to develop a software product.
