They have impressive customizability that helps us to establish the custom fields and automation of all types whenever there is a need to build new templates to support our projects and progress through new and different ideas.

Jira needs to add dark mode to its features. There are no automated alerts like ticket age and last update. It is not possible to filter the task through Jira. There must be a complete ALM solution added to the features.

Jira is best recommended because it helps us to streamline our projects and processes and also the integration with other apps is also best.
