Employees have not struggled to put tickets through and analytics side of it is nice to see over our previous system. We are very happy with it so far. Pros Feature rich, cloud based and fairly easy to set up. We like the admin portal and how it ties in with other Jira products such as Trello. Support has been a pleasant surprise so far as well.

Business Analyst Oil & Energy ### "Jira - great tool" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 4.0 4.0 Likelihood to Recommend 8/10 March 11, 2026 I now enjoy working with Jira service management now that I have been using this each day for the last year. It is a great tool to spilt out work items and mange these each day using a kahban board , this shows easily what work items we have completed , that are in review/ready to start or in progress. Pros I like that Jira service management allows me to track IT projects and allocate work items to the developers working on the project. There is a function that times stand ups which we hold each morning to discuss our work items. If working in an agile framework you can set Jira up to run your sprints , currently we work in 2 weeks sprint. Cons Quite hard to set up to start with but once the projects are set up it works well. There is a lot of admin work to add all the tasks however this would be the same as any project set up.

Marketing Manager E-Learning ### "Good project management tool/ticketing system" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 4.0 4.0 Likelihood to Recommend 7/10 February 22, 2026 Pros What I really like about Jira is the ability to create multiple boards for different teams, which keeps workstreams clearly organized and easy to manage. It makes it simple to separate priorities while still maintaining overall visibility. I also appreciate the ability to assign priority levels to each ticket, ensuring teams can effectively triage and focus on the most important requests when managing a high volume of work. Cons One challenge I’ve experienced with Jira is that, as a ticket submitter, it can be difficult to easily find and keep track of all the requests I’ve submitted to different teams. They don’t always appear in my recent items, which makes visibility and follow-up more time-consuming than it should be.
