This software is great - it provides great reports, you can customize the dashboards, it has a great way to keep track of your work, and it's really helpful for managing development.
I dislike both how it's hard for me to use and how it's hard for others to use - I run into instances of people misunderstanding the software all the time, which creates mistakes and wasted time.
I am using this tool since several months and I found this software amazing as it is very easy to handle and tracking the created Bugs, Task or Improvement tickets in excellent way.
It slows down productivity. This could be a company specific flaw but I hated always having to ask product managers for permission to access documents that I needed.
The ease of use is such a timesaver. Also the many integrations with other attlassian products is great, it really saves a lot of time and it's a great as documentation.
It can be costly and there are nasty sides on the licensing. For example, you can't use plugins for a limited number of users, and only pay for that the number of users.
I like the functionality the ability to run real time reports and issue tracking with ease. I love the collaboration amongst peers and so every stakeholder is informed.
Unable to clone the tasks when it is Done. Sometimes, my members having mistakes in cloning because sometimes the tasks that already set to Done status is unable to see the cloned one if you clone it.
I love the simplicity of the design and how easy it is to use overall. It is exactly what I would expect from a software that helps me be productive and keep my workflow organized.
It is a pity that swimlines function are paid. Mobile version could be an app not webpage.
This is the best tool if you are just starting out as a project manager. This is so easy to use with beautiful UI and UX.
The functionality of the software on the free version is very limited, obviously. The paid version has more functionality but there is no customization possible (that I'm aware of).
It's simpler than Trello and has some features that make it very good to organize all your tasks. It's integrated with pomodoro timer which is great.
It is also difficult to direct-message, particularly on mobile devices.
I like the simplicity of kanbanflow which helps me to create a board that helps organise my projects and save so unnecessary work.
It repeat task functionality could be better, showing just what is next to be done, but it only show all the future tasks, which make some tasks to appear in the wrong time.
Jake D.: My name is Jake, my company is Uni. We are one to 10 people, and my score for Jira was a four. Before we were using Trello and we didn't like it as much as Jira, because it really only was good for task management, but the tickets and organizing complex projects weren't as strong on it. We also really liked the documentation and the ability to do other things in Jira that Trello didn't offer. So in general just as we grew and had more engineers to manage and more complex software projects to manage, Jira became a better fit for our company. I chose Jira first and foremost, because the devs at my company really liked it and had experience working on it. It also allowed us to manage a front-end and backend team more easily and collaborate with ease compared to the other products we were looking at. It was affordable for startups and also supported us scaling all the way up if we were to grow our org to be much larger. As I had used it in previous companies that were bigger enterprises and saw it used for everything from documentation to ticket management to product management and development, so it just made the most sense for our org as we grew and was very affordable. Getting started with Jira was pretty easy, it took us about a week. We had a designated project manager who went about kind of setting up every user and getting the board set up the way we needed. We had engineering leads trained in how to do ticketing and how to move tickets from beginning to end pretty quickly. I think a lot of people use Jira and have experience with it coming out of school or bootcamp, so it was a pretty easy switch for us. Coming over from Trello, we found it was pretty fast to recreate the tickets and our processes from that. I think my biggest recommendation is just making sure that the engineers really want it. I think that project managers, it really caters to and has a great amount of tools for documenting, doing product recs, doing task management, QA, all of that. But I think if the devs aren't comfortable using it for pointing, using it for work management, it kind of gets out of line or doesn't get set up in a proper way. So, asking your developers to make sure that that's the tool they want and making sure it's set up in a way that's optimal for them I think makes it a much smoother transition, and easier for the business leads and product leads to engage with as well.
David: Hi. My name is David. I'm the general manager of a small manufacturing company. I give Kanban four out of five stars, and for more reviews like this, please see below. Before we started using KanbanFlow, we had typically just used Excel spreadsheets to track the progress of our projects for both engineering and the sales teams, and we needed a more robust software with specific product management features. We considered some other offerings, but KanbanFlow is an excellent tool to start with because of how easy it is to use. There were two reasons we started to use KanbanFlow. It stuck out because it works off a web interface. So it didn't require software programs to be installed on our workstations, and it was also free to get started with the program. KanbanFlow is extremely easy to get started with. The drag-and-drop calendar feature was very intuitive and it was very easy as an administrator to create new accounts and assign people to teams. My primary recommendation for someone looking at offerings similar to a KanbanFlow for project management software would be to start with something that's free because a lot of the programs, you are able to have either a trial or there is an entry-level version. So it's really not that difficult to just try out a couple of the different offerings and see which one works best for your specific needs.
Prioritize real-user-identified key features according to your needs to find your best fit.
