Jira Align vs. ProductPlan

This product is useful for a team/company working with multiple customers. Employee count anywhere larger than fifty or sixty will be benefited [from] this. Considering this product is expensive(as I’ve heard) this will not serve [many] purposes to smaller companies and startups who are having a very less customer base and [fewer...] employees.

Product Plan is great if you need a simple tool to manage your product roadmap, and don’t want a complex enterprise application.

• Jira is a great project management tool when it comes to tracking the progress of deliverables and milestones. Each member of the team can track individual deliverables and milestones. Jira comes with filters and search functions to perform these tasks.
• Jira is highly flexible when it comes to maintaining tasks and deliverable backlogs. You can plan and organize your sprints in such a way that you include your previous backlogs in them.

• Excellent road-mapping and visualization.
• Can directly sync to/from JIRA.
• Building a road map is very intuitive because of the in-app tutorial.

• The initial ticket creation screen lacks some important features, such as assigning "point values" (a measure of effort needed for the ticket).
• The browser needs to be manually refreshed to see new tickets, which can make things confusing when several people in a meeting are simultaneously creating tickets.
• The interface on some smaller portions of the software are sometimes difficult to understand.

• It is a little short of tutorials, I know that the platform is very easy to use but sometimes there are little things that I had not understood.
• The output of the route sheets is very limited, I would prefer that this could be customized.
• There are times that there is a little space between the bars of the roadmap, I would like this to be automatically coupled and thus have no errors between dates or time when a task will be performed after completing another.

There is nothing that can be better than Jira but it needs to keep improving certain areas especially the attachment size area.

Most of the things are easily manageable except certain things that are hidden and you need to ask teammates who are aware of how they can link attachements in the comment section and so on.

It is average. It needs to improve overall if you are paying the amount of money it costs. For now, it does the job, but with so many new features being added it would be very helpful to kick this up a notch.

Atlassian JIRA Align (formerly AgileCraft) has an excellent suite of tools that integrate well with other tools and offers full support for various agile frameworks, including SAFe. It's just a complete integrated package, whereas some other tools seem to be lacking in different areas. Several plug-ins can be integrated to help with pro serv invoicing and integration with GitHub, Jenkins, Confluence, and other tools that we use.

ProductPlan has given better results without much effort in learning to use the software itself since other platforms have been very complicated and the ROI was not very pleasant compared to this platform. With ProductPlan work efficiency has been increased since workflow management has been brought to a level that can be more organized without setbacks.

• Able to forecast & plan releases well using agilecraft leading to quality on time delivery.
• Distributed teams are able to collaborate well, be it be daily scrum, retrospective, estimation though this. Also team members love the gamification part & they have fun using this tool. Earlier we use to face challenges due to distributed teams but after AgileCraft, collaboration & communication was no longer a challenge & we are able to see improvement not only in team velocity, but also team satisfaction.
• Simplest tool to implement safe, scaling is always a problem with most of the agile tools but agilecraft helps in smoother implementation of safe practices & principles.
