Comprehensive workflows and data views have supported complex teams but still need cost improvements
JIRA Service Management is costly. The pricing structure needs improvement. When I add some plugins, I have to pay the cost for every user whether they are using it or not. For smaller companies, the detailed workflow editing and the kind of details that JIRA Service Management provides would be complex. For startups and smaller companies, JIRA Service Management would be complex. The cloud offering is easier because I don't have to manage the infrastructure. There are two templates of the project: company-managed and team-managed. Team-managed is a newer feature, which is good for startup-kind companies where they don't need control over data from multiple projects displaying in one dashboard. For startups, JIRA Service Management is somewhat complex with its schemes and everything. Capacity management should be improved in terms of additional features in the next release of JIRA Service Management.

Boosts efficiency and significantly reduces operational costs
They handle all the training and implementation work, making it very easy to use. It integrates into Slack and connects with ServiceNow effortlessly. The only limitation is getting all the service requests or features in ServiceNow that it can learn. Anyone can use it through Slack by simply asking questions to receive answers. We partnered with them to build a Workday integration for requesting and checking time off. They are expanding across the enterprise as a co-pilot, integrating with HR, finance, Keeper, and Salesforce. We also use their communications module, which allows scheduled communications to be sent through Slack or Teams. These communications are personalized for each recipient. When comparing email engagement rates of 3% to Moveworks' 12%, the platform reaches approximately four times more people.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"We have an Agile environment and using Jira makes it easy to adhere to Agile best practices."
"The tool's stability is very good."
"There are two things that I value very much about this product. One is the service levels management – the SLA agreement management part of it – and knowledge management."
"The most valuable features are the management tools."
"The most valuable feature of Jira is that it is free of cost, which is a significant advantage."
"The most valuable feature of JIRA Service Management is a plugin we are using for the front end for simple user forms."
"I like the precise ticket management capabilities. JIRA Service Management is easy to use as well."
"It is 100% stable."
"The solution saves us approximately three-quarters of a million dollars per year."
"Moveworks has reduced employee time because initially, employees used to spend so much time going to the third party to do all those jobs, and now they can simply do it via Otter, which is Moveworks, and this has saved much time and provided accurate results as well."
"Moveworks is a very good platform if you utilize it well."
 

Cons

"I rate Atlassian support two out of 10. It takes a lot of time to reach them and get ahold of someone who understands my problem enough to provide a solution. Also, I live in Israel, so my work week is Sunday through Thursday, but I can only contact them from Monday to Wednesday."
"The interface could be made easier to use."
"A lot of users have said that they want a feature that was on the on-prem version of Jira and the vendor can't deliver. They're either unwilling or unable to give feature parity."
"The solution needs to be integrated better with Office X5."
"Include a split configuration in a layer part to allow cloud services to have almost full admin rights in SaaS."
"An AI feature that enables automation and alerts for users can be an improvement."
"Field addition and removal features are not very intuitive in JIRA Service Management."
"There is room for improvement in the user interface and the queues."
"Moveworks can definitely be improved. Currently, we have to do most of the things on our own, such as creating UI and APIs for how things will work."
"More use cases can be added to the agent marketplace and the YAML or the DSL methods can be simplified, adding more methods to make it easier for us to create compound actions."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Costs are about $50 per user per year. JIRA is sold in user tiers of 25, 50, 100, 250, 500, 2000, 10,000, and unlimited users. It is bad when you have 51 users then the price is based on that 100 user tier. Users at 100 will be the most cost effective."
"For the people like us, the lower the price, the better. But when compared to other competitors, I think it's Jira's price is okay."
"Do not forget to calculate add-on costs. These cost a percentage of the JIRA purchasing costs and are based on the number of JIRA users."
"JIRA Service Management's pricing is pretty decent compared to competitors. I rate the pricing an eight to nine on a scale of one to ten."
"We need a license because we have a higher number than the free part."
"Jira Service Management has affordable license fees. It's $12 a month per person."
"It depends on the number of users but it starts at $20 per month per user. I would rate them a three out of five for pricing."
"But about the plugins, I found one plug-in — its name is Actionable Metric I think — and it is $3000. That is very expensive for users in Iran."
