What it is

Jira is Atlassian's issue tracker for software teams: sprints, backlogs, workflows and audit trails, tightly integrated with Confluence, Bitbucket and GitHub. The free plan covers up to 10 users; annual plans are sold in fixed user tiers.

  • Scrum and Kanban boards
  • Custom workflows
  • Roadmaps

Community sentiment

What people praise

Can be trimmed down to a simple Scrum or Kanban board, and nothing matches it for engineering audit trails.

What people complain about

Slow page loads, over-engineered, and it needs a dedicated admin to stay usable.
