Good tool to manage projects

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Atlassian Jira helps us manage and track Project, stories, tasks, bugs, etc. It is very helpful where you have big conplex project and want to manage and keep everything documentated. You can also assign a work item to the individual track that work item's status by changing it's status. It can be used by all from Developers to Quality Analysts.

  • Keep track of overall project
  • Assign a work item to others when your work is done in that item
  • Create bugs related work items

Cons

  • It can add AI in the Atlassian Jira
  • It should restricte from editing others comment
  • There should be some confirmation on assigning work items to others

Return on Investment

  • Atlassian Jira can be used in any project model(i.e. agile, waterfall etc.) So we can provide any business model based on client need.

Jira helps me do my job better and easier!

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Jira as a work management tool. Jira is very helpful in creating and managing work projects and keep track of the projects. Jira can also be configured with addons, even for Service Desk, that will help call centre managers, help desk agents. I am mainly using Jira for tracking the sprint work and for opening bugs, where it is very configurable, the Jira Administrator being able to configure the fields almost everywhere in the app.

Pros

  • Bug tracking
  • Project management
  • Email notifications
  • Test case management

Cons

  • I do not have any cons related to the app
  • Jira has multiple versions, and if working on multiple projects on different Jira versions, might create a little confusion

Most Important Features

  • Bug tracking
  • Project management
  • Bug opening

Return on Investment

  • Jira had an positive impact, helping the teams track their projects and get the job done

Great tool for team organization and collaboration

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Atlassian Jira to describe our tasks and plan our sprints. The tool allows to structure multiple tasks in epics, which helps searching, organizing, working together and planning ahead. We use the tool throughout the whole process of a sprint - for planning, daylies, updating and documenting our tasks, creating bug tickets, refinements, reviews. The tool offers a really nice overview (no matter if you choose Scrum, Kanban or other principles) of your current sprints and the backlog and the features per userstory or bug are really helpful to document, discuss, track the state etc.

Pros

  • Organizing sprints
  • Describing and tracking tasks
  • Filter methods

Cons

  • Navigation, e.g. to Wiki
  • Customizable dashborrds

Return on Investment

  • Time saving
  • Higher productivity through better planning
  • Better collaboration through better overview of tasks and subtasks
