What differentiates Jira from other similar products?

Jira is just intuitive to work with, due to its easy to navigate interface . The quality of analytics it provides me around projects I manage is fantastic and just different from some other PM software I have had experience with. The most important part for me , is that Jira is built with Kanban and Scrum boards, making them very ideal for scrum and agile approach to software project management.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

I love Jira analytical reports. They provide me with the real time data I require, to effectively measure key performance metrics on software projects I manage for my company.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Except when integrated with a communication / collaboration software such as Slack, Jira is by itself inadequate for project management based, collaboration and communication.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Jira is scalable and this makes it an ideal software for managing software projects of all sizes.

Reliable
