What JIRA Software customers are saying
The biggest benefit of consolidating our platform on [JIRA Software] has been providing a single point of visibility over our projects. Now we can see what everybody else is doing, and understand each project's status in great detail. That enables everyone to be on the same page.
—Daniele Farnedi, Chief Technology Officer, Trulia
At any given time, we can see, at a glance, the status of our projects, the volume weâre managing, as well as what defects are coming in and what the severity levels are. From there, we can quickly gauge who needs to be involved and at what level.
—Jennifer Johnson, Senior Manager in Localization Services, Autodesk
I wanted to let you know how incredibly valuable JIRA Software is to our organization. We very firmly feel that switching to JIRA Software was a critical enabler in allowing us to dramatically improve our development workflow and decrease the amount of time needed to deliver new projects. Simply put, it's become indispensable for us.
—Clark Ritchie, CTO, One Economy Corporation
With Bugzilla, it looked like we had to deal with too much configuration upfront. JIRA Software had almost all of the workflows, categories, and configuration in place; we had to do very little to get it up and running. We also needed an issue management system that was aware of agile workflows, like JIRA Software. This was another reason we didn't select Bugzilla.
—Scott Peterson, Senior Systems Analyst, Michael Baker Corporation
Over 50,000 companies around the world have chosen JIRA Software to ship higher quality code better and faster.
