Our Verdict

Our Verdict

Jira is a powerful tool designed for tracking and managing software development projects. With features like customizable workflows, issue tracking, and sprint planning, it excels in supporting Agile methodologies and complex project management needs.

Can Jira accommodate users who aren't focused on software development? While it’s highly effective for managing technical projects and development cycles, those outside the tech sphere might find it more complex than necessary. Jira is ideal for development teams needing detailed project and issue tracking but may not be the best fit for simpler project management requirements.

Overview

Why we like it

Agile teams can use Jira as a process management tool in their business. Essentially, it’s a track-and-release software supporting Kanban, Scrum, and hybrid model workflows. We’ve found the ability to create project roadmaps in Jira to be especially functional, allowing teams to map every project and its subsequent progress. The interface includes drag-and-drop functionalities for all project details.
With flexible pricing, Jira can be tailored to businesses of any size. Small teams with fewer than 10 users get it free, while growing team plans start at $7/user/month. We were surprised to find that users can access thousands of business tools here, from productivity to source code apps. As such, Jira’s functionality is ideal for businesses looking to create stories, distribute tasks throughout a team, and even plan sprints.
