The application development life cycle management (ADLM) tool market focuses on the planning and governance activities of the software development life cycle (SDLC). ADLM products focus on the "development" portion of an application's life. Key elements of an ADLM solution include: software requirements definition and management, software change and configuration management, software project planning, with a current focus on agile planning, work item management, quality management, including defect management. Other key capabilities include: reporting, workflow, integration to version management, support for wikis and collaboration, strong facilities for integration to other ADLM tools.

Application Development Life Cycle Management

Application Lifecycle Management Tools

Enterprise agile planning (EAP) tools help organizations to make use of agile practices at scale to achieve enterprise-class agile development. This is achieved by supporting practices that are business-outcome-driven, customer-centric, collaborative and cooperative, as well as with continual stakeholder feedback. These tools represent an evolution from project-centric agile tools and traditional application development life cycle management (ADLM) tools. The majority of products in the EAP tools market play into the overall ADLM product set, acting as a hub for the definition and management of work-item tracking.

Enterprise Agile Planning Tools

The market for social software in the workplace includes software products that support people working together in teams, communities or networks.

Business use of these products ranges from project coordination within small teams or homogeneous groups, to information exchange between employees across an entire organization.

Product Roadmapping Tools for Software Engineering

Value stream delivery platforms provide fully integrated capabilities that enable continuous delivery of software. These capabilities may include planning, version control, continuous integration, test automation, release orchestration, continuous deployment (and rollback), monitoring, security testing and analyzing value stream metrics. VSDPs integrate with infrastructure and compliance automation tools to automate infrastructure deployment and policy enforcement.
VSDPs are extensible by design and integrate with other tools to fill gaps in software delivery management. Gartner’s definition of VSDP does not describe a system that cobbles together disparate DevOps tools. Instead, VSDPs provide preintegrated capabilities that enhance productivity, collaboration, communication and business outcomes for product teams via interactions among the platform components.

Inbound Success Coach

The cluttered UI is very confusing and causes friction when trying to communicate with the Support Team.

Ads Campaign Manager

My overall experience using Jira Software is decent. I really liked Jira's features and their customizations. Also, it is really good on the integration and deployment part. We use Jira in a wide capacity and it plays an integral role in our company's tasks management, productivity tracking, and project management.

DESIGNER UX/UI

Jira is a complete project management tool, full of sometimes useless functionality depending on each type of project

Sr. Software Engineer

JIRA is a good tool but can be made much better. We use it every day for our daily activities but can be made more user-friendly and convenient  

Senior UX Designer

I know Jira is a very capable piece of software, however being a designer and having to work with it is a bit of a pain. I don't think the fault is all on Atlassian's side, but it sure could be more flexible in some areas.

Data Scientist

I am a data scientist in my company and after my team findings about a subject, we need to use this knowledge in our softwares or create a new software. For planning, creating, testing and deployment of the software application, we use JIRA. With JIRA, I can easily communicate with software developers, and follow project situation.

SENIOR APPLICATION DEVELOPER

I have used several tools over the years, and JIRA has been the best at managing workflow and collaborating between teams and departments. 

Head Of International Partners

It is a very easy to use and intuitive tool. I used it as a team member and never had any issues with using Jira.

Data Manager

it is a strong task management tool. we use it specifically in my team for task management. e.g. one project for many smaller tasks of mixed types but also one project with many sub tasks related to one overall assignment.

System Admin

Good but needs work. Having more versatility to create inhouse features will bring the product more on par with other 3rd party applications in the market.
