Pros / Cons
- Our admin did a good job of integrating the KB with the ticketing systems so the KB was a very reliable point of reference while troubleshooting during a call.
- It’s incredibly hard to cancel; they've been charging us for the last two months even though we’ve cancelled our subscription three times from our admin interface.

- Jira Service Management and the Atlassian suite of cloud products provide great value for money for an ecosystem of tools which is rich in features and provide many capabilities such as, ITSM in Jira Service Manage, asset management, project management, agile and scrum features within Jira Software.
- It's also a pity that we Admins always get to see the content of spaces, because in the HR team we want to have onboarding/offboarding tasks but some of them are confidential and we can't risk having IT or Tech members reading it.
