It's intuitive and easy to use while being very robust and comprehensive. Perfect for distributing work across teams and keeping track of progress and issues.

Some of the benefits that I found useful are listed below. It helps in tracking a number of tasks whether it is a new feature, an issue or bug or anything that requires some kind of tracking.

It's like an extra powerful ship, abundant in functions and features, that would bring you anywhere you like. For complex projects, it's probably a hidden weapon that decides about the win.

Great task-management software at an affordable price - JIRA is a great solution for a small business.

Jira has been good tool to help us organize and execute our team's work. I'd hope to find more flexibility in views and the like in JIRA, but as it's focus is on software teams I understand.

There are nice features that integrate across the ecosystem, like opsgenie, also the charts seem useful,  having multiple metrics about the project progress.

Some of the breakdowns of what issue the problems fall under aren't specific enough, and there are character limits for some of the requests when they should be able to leave more detail.

Customer service is outstanding. Great for companies to use as a ticketing system for logging issues, creating tasks and projects etc.

Overall experience is very nice with jira because of it's inclusive price & good features.

I really like the ease of use. It s very versatile and i like the customer support.

I love the integration with bitbucket because I can relate commits, pull requests and branches to an amount os cards on Jira, what is great for maintenability as well as for management.

We've had developers tell us that they hate JIRA because everything is just too confusing.

It's an amazing tool for working together across departments specially in big organizations. It's great with tickets - tasks or bugs.

Its configuration is a little confusing. As for use, in the beginning user is somewhat lost due to many fields and features of the tool.

Overall, the product is great to use. If your company invests in it then as a user, you should can count yourself lucky.

In addition, it is a great motivational tool and teaches us to discipline. It gives great insight into the status of ongoing projects and helps in their accessible presentation.

I like having the ability to “tag” other colleagues until tickets and messages. I also like the integration ability with some of our other tools.

I love that you can make recommendations and they listen to you and implement the changes which are great.

I like it is easy to use and even the price is not high for what it offers. I have been using these over the last years every day at my work and is perfect.

Great teamwork/collaboration tool with a great overview of the project and its progress, I would highly recommend this product for any software implementation.

Nice and friendly interface in the latest versions. Great power when it comes to managing permits and creating workflows.

The overall experience is good, it can be better on certain costumization fields and profile managment.

The lone thing I hate is that it is somewhat costly with regards to additional items.

I like most the versatility and the ease of use. It is designed in an intuitive way and the user experience has been great.

I feel like there is a ton of customization and all the appropriate fields are there. I love the burn down to see if we are on track with our sprint and I also love the kanban board.

I liked most in JIRA is ease of use and helpful. It helps us in tracking project and its tasks so that we can get more clarity on project outcome and its implementations.

Jira was great for what I needed it for; bug reporting. However, as someone who it took a while to learn, I am happy that is all I had to do.

We needed a help desk system that is reliable and performed the functions we wanted. It fit the bill perfectly at a cost that didn't break our bank.

Jira works great and allows to access and change boards very easily. It is a great way to communicate with the team due to the great features.

It’s a great program that helps organizations stay on top of project completions or important customer interactions.

Helps categorize, filter, share issues with great ease. There are so many good features that I love, it's hard to list over a review.

The problem is that with the passage of time I have been getting more things that I dislike and the initials do not stop bothering me, they could even bother me more at a certain point.

Also the issue tracking system is awesome. I used other service desk solutions in the past but Jira is best among them.

It's great to have a single place where we can document epics/features/stories/tasks. It's a great integration with third-party tools like Git.

I dislike the length of time it takes to get to a complete resolution on issues that are found in the software.

Having the ability to customize reports and letters, as well as track data and due dates, is so beneficial. The CGC staff is certainly worth commenting on.

ECMS is updating the software constantly to provide the customer with the best product. The menu options are very organized, giving you the ability to navigate quickly and efficiently.

For me the best feature about the software is the Reporting. Every construction ERP that we reviewed  did not have a powerful Biz Intelligence reporting writing tool.

The system need a custom installation and very difficult to try to understand.

The customer support has remained strong. CGC modules we like best are Accounts Payable, Document Imaging and Workflow routing, IBM software maintenance program, General Ledger, Data Inquiry.

We have been using  eCMS since it was CMS, we are fairly familiar with the system. Introduction browser as interface did add and open more windows and we are happy with it.

I have used this for 11 years and love everything about it from billing to check writing to reporting.

ECMS is an excellent out of the box solution that doesn't take a handful of programmers to develop and setup.

Their customer support is amazing. So knowledgeable, helpful and kind.

All of our Job Costing data flows back into the Estimating Department to continue the cycle of successful project bidding.

CGC's commitment to constant improvement, as well as it's customer's needs, has yielded a product that continues to evolve.

Its ability to handle imaging smoothly and effortlessly is still what sets it apart from the competition.

Solid ERP system with excellent data imaging capability and customer support.

User Friendly, Comprehensive ERP Construction Software.

Computer browser restrictions has limited some functionality over the years but is soon going away in the new anticipated release.

I have to manage our projects through a variety of stages in order to be successful and this ERP allows me to do that with ease.

Visibility and accessibility of actual Job Cost is straight forward and easy to use for project management and accounting staff. We upgraded to eCMS4.1 in October 2018.

Their customer support is always great and gets us answers and help quickly. With even more new features coming soon, it will only make our investment in eCMS even more valuable.

You need to make sure it is configured to meet your needs as a company. If it's not done right the first time, it could be painful going back and changing the way the system operates.

We are very happy with the integration of the accounting and project management sides of the software. Integration is key for our efficiency.

We have been using eCMS on the cloud version for almost 10 years. The reliability and flexibility of eCMS is excellent.

Experience has been good overall, It's a stable platform that can do may things required of a construction software package, and can do it all under one system.
