1. This software gives you multiple tools for task management for example burn up/down charts, scrum and kanban boards, etc.

3. Good thing about this software is that it supports agile development methodology and it works best for everyone both its development team and management.
4. It has customizable permissions that enable admins to determine who can see or perform which action or task.

Puntos en contra

Jira is out of the box free, and it's amazing because it works with everything by the same company. It also allows for easy organization of projects and silos, which intersect with each other. You can easily hand off tasks and allow people to collaborate.

Puntos en contra

Jira has a very development based angle, so if you're trying to manage a hybrid team, it works well. But if your team is marketing heavy, it's very anti-user friendly unless a person has familiarity with code or databases. It's just sparse and less user friendly.

I find this software to be very versatile and useful.

It has functions that make work easier when it comes to organization, planning, and meeting goals.

It facilitates effective teamwork; it is simple to keep track of the activities that must be completed and the notifications of changes to any action work well.

It has multiple views and is used to manage projects, so people who want to see an overview of the work can use the To-do List or simply the Roadmap, and team members who are trying to balance their daily activities can use the Dashboard to plan their workload.

I like it because it easily adapts to what you want to do.

Puntos en contra

In some circumstances, receiving notifications has become difficult, preventing real-time monitoring. Although simple and adaptable, defining and organizing the sorts of work items might be difficult at first.

Excelente herramienta de gestión de proyectos, no sólo agiliza la gestión integral, sino que también ayuda a evaluar los progresos individuales de los equipos como así el progreso general del proyecto.

Puntos en contra

Como administrador, la gestión de usuarios, roles y permisos se hace compleja, dado que hay múltiples niveles de permisos, globales y específicos de un proyecto. Si bien es algo positivo, lo negativo es la falta de documentación detallada sobre lo referido a la administración de la herramienta.
