Now that its running its adding real value in the whole bug tracking to code changes (bitbucked) pipeline > > **Cons**: The setup of the whole Integrations was a pain, and especially for the AI features we wanted we had to do quite a few work arounds ----- ### "Life-Saving Automations: How Jira Transformed Our Workflow." — 5.0/5 > **Sajjad** | *12 April 2026* | Telecommunications | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Time Savings: Moving from Google Sheets to Jira has saved my team approximately 3 hours of manual work every day. • Automation: The automatic email notifications triggered after shipments are a lifesaver. It provides instant visibility on shipment status and kit counts without manual tracking. • Efficiency: I love that we get instant notifications the moment a ticket is created, which eliminates the need for tedious copying and pasting of data. > > **Cons**: Board Complexity: While the system is powerful, the ticket system on the Jira board can feel a bit overwhelming or "clunky" when trying to plan out very short-term, day-to-day tasks. It takes some time to get the view exactly right for daily planning. > > Our transition from Google Sheets to Jira has revolutionized our operations. It has made our workflow much more professional and highly productive. By automating our shipment tracking and ticket creation alerts, we’ve eliminated human error and reclaimed significant time for the team. It is a robust tool that has streamlined our entire process. ----- ### "Powerful Tool for Agile Project and Issue Management" — 4.0/5 > **Anonymous User** | *16 April 2026* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: What I like most about Jira is its strong issue tracking and project management capabilities. It helps teams organize tasks clearly, track progress through different stages, and collaborate effectively. The workflows are highly customizable, which makes it suitable for both simple and complex projects. > > **Cons**: What I like least about Jira is that it can feel complex and a bit heavy for new users. Setting up workflows and understanding all the features takes time, and sometimes the interface feels overwhelming for small projects. > > Overall, my experience with Jira has been very good. Once you get used to it, it becomes a very powerful tool for managing tasks, tracking bugs, and improving team collaboration. It’s especially useful for structured teams working on software development projects. ----- ### "A superior business project management tool." — 4.0/5 > **Song** | *25 February 2026* | Warehousing | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: Our team manages projects using Jira. For me, task scheduling and bug submission and resolution are the features we use most frequently. > > **Cons**: The functionality is overly complex, with redundant features compared to Openproject, and the price is on the high side. In fact, most of these features can be found in free systems. Additionally, the UI isn't intuitive enough—I often struggle to locate the entry points for specific functions and have to rely on bookmarks to save the pages I need. > > The overall experience is excellent, though the price is on the high side and the functionality is somewhat complex. ----- ### "Important task management software" — 5.0/5 > **Hayden** | *9 April 2026* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Jira has been an incredible platform to use to keep on top of tasks. Whilst the business grows, so does the workload. keeping on top of what needs doing and having lives updates makes this more manageable. > > **Cons**: The user interface was certainly a barriers to overcome. When first using this sight the ease of use was very hard to understand, and became a bit overwhelming. > > Certainly a positive experience. Working on team projects has become easier to understand and progress, lowering the chances of costly mistakes. The price point of the software is also respecable. ----- Page: 1 / 616\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/4315/jira?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/4315/jira) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
