A fairly stable solution that’s highly mature, but has a poor user interface
The solution does not align as modern service solutions do. Seamless integration is no available among the processes. Their service management application needs a lot of work. It’s in a really bad state right now. They brought on a new interface that clumped all the processes and features of the solution into one. Still, it’s not really compatible with other solutions. Because of this, its rating has dropped in Gardner. The solution needs to improve its reporting features. The user interface needs a lot of improvements. The product needs to implement a cloud platform solution, which is lacking so far. Their workflow engine is still segregated. It’s not embedded. If you need to do some workflow approvals, you cannot do them directly on the service desk. You have to go into Outlook and do an approval or you have to go in through another screen to handle the approval because the workflow engine they have is a separate product.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It makes the IT department more transparent and helps the employees."
"Simplicity is a key aspect. It is not hard to use."
"The most valuable features are the management tools."
"We have an Agile environment and using Jira makes it easy to adhere to Agile best practices."
"This service management solution has a good user interface. It helps improve your IT request requirements and makes tracking requests easier."
"The platform is easy to use."
"Auditing team uses this solution to track audit findings and follow-up."
"The query language and the ability to create views of the data are very useful."
"The solution is a highly mature product. Because of this, it can stand up to any other product on the market."
 

Cons

"The licensing model could be improved. There needs to be a different licensing model for large numbers of employees, as it remains one of the main barriers to using JIRA Service Management across our entire company."
"Jira Service Management should be more user-friendly."
"I would like to see improvement in the ability to filter completed tasks."
"I think the performance can be better."
"Jira Service Management is expensive and not worth the money compared to monday.com."
"The reporting function of this solution, particularly the filters in the portal, could be improved."
"What needs to be added in Jira Service Management is the user screen. You'll find it very weird if this is your first time using the solution. The user-friendliness of its interface needs improvement."
"There is room for improvement in support."
"The solution needs to improve its reporting features. The user interface needs a lot of improvements."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Licensing can become quite expensive."
"I price of JIRA Service Management is reasonable."
"I rate Service Management four out of 10 for affordability. The price could be better, especially for companies using more than one Atlassian product. It's suitable for SMBs that can afford it. I don't think there's another tool that's both better and cheaper. All help desk tools are relatively expensive."
"It is a cheaply priced product."
"The pricing is free for us because we are an associate partner for the product."
"On a scale of one to five, where five is a good price and one is high, I would rate this solution as a three. It isn't cheap but it's not ridiculous."
"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."
