Reporting functions are easy to operate and offer valuable management information. The platform is popular with our employees and is widely used to capture and organise leave requests.

Could be difficult to learn if not coming from someone who doesn't use computers.

Kudos feature allows you to give kudos to your colleagues with a leaderboard showing who's been awarded the most kudos (great for staff moral).

The ability to easily book holiday due to being able to see when the rest of the team are away is really useful.

No ‘variable hours’ recording function that allows you to enter hours worked on an hourly, weekly or monthly basis.

The cost is within budge. The system is easy to us for my team and for me and it has taken days of my life through the simple administration.

It is a good basic tool for Employee records, but getting data back out can be cumbersome.

It is very easy to navigate round, it is also very simple to book holidays.

Support is friendly and efficient and the cost is very attractive. I can't say enough positive things about breathehr.

It is quite dull to look at and use, it feels like a program from about 7-8 years ago despite actually being a very modern package.

For a small monthly payment, I now have the perfect system for my needs. I have been very impressed with the product and the technical support.

With the software being cloud based it is nice that it can easily be accessed on any device from anywhere.

Support staff is great- very helpful, easy to get a hold of. Program integrates well with our other databases.

I also find it frustrating that the recruitment section does not seem to tell you an overview of how to use it, but you almost have to post something to work it out.

Its UI is easy to use and the featureset is constantly expanding. Their support team is fabulous and answers our minimal questions very fast and with ease.

Really easy to use - great platform. Would recommend for a smaller scale business and scale up within breathe as your business scales.

Good integration with third party systems like Rota Cloud and Safety Cloud. Very good support including self service for managers and staff.

Happy with how simple it is to use and a big improvement over the platform we used before (Sage).

I found it difficult to access documents that were uploaded to it for me to see as I couldnt find the correct area from my profile.

Without a doubt, the best part about BreatheHR is its simplicity. For the user, the web interface is clear with all features signposted in the expected places with not an ounce of bloatware in sight.

Overall very positive and has greatly improved efficiencies within our organisation.

There is a new recruitment module which I believe is a great addition.

Great central location for employee policies/holidays etc.

It's a very useful software which helps for the HR management and leave tracking purposes. Not only that it can be used for personal goal setting and training activities too.

Smooth, minimal learn time, east to integrate systems with, easy to manage staff through it.

There is no drag and drop functionality, integration with Office 365 or CRM and data cannot be exported en masses.

Our users are love being able to submit their requests any time from any device. BreatheHR Support are amazing.

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.
