What do you dislike most about this product?

Have issues with UI while using it on Internet Explorer or Mozilla Features with similar or common names are difficult to search Not all reports can be exported from the system. I often try to tag items to track them for a release. The release reports don't have an export button. In order to share what is complete for an upcoming release, I have to copy paste into excel.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

I strongly recommend this to everyone who develop their products with Agile methodologies some of the recent changes moved some common items into less user friendly areas, sometime hard to find item - not always intuitive. While the software isn't very user friendly, it does help in tracking projects and tracking team performance.
