Best out-of-the-box feature of Jira

Alex Koxaras -Relational-

Hi!

I'm beginning a discussion about what do you consider to be the best out-of-the-box feature of Jira, without the use of any addon. However the feature of expanding your jira instance with addons can count as a feature!

Mine would definitely be Workflow customization!

So what about you?

Well we´ve had implemented several plugins and finally it was impossible to say what feature comes from what - in administration there was no clue how to differentiate it. But I guess I wouldn´t be wrong if I mention the possibility to edit workflow as a picture/diagram and ensure it looks finally neat and you can copy transitions there etc. I know it is already long time there, but still, I remember the table only, so I find it very helpful...

@Alex Koxaras -Relational- Mine would be Automation and Field Behaviour .

Klára Zikešová

hard to pick just one, right?

Vikrant Yadav

hahaha...absolutely right..

@Alex Koxaras -Relational- if I had to pick just one it would have to be automation, its just so useful!

I was between automation and worfklow customization. And then workflow customization (with all the automation inside it) won my vote!

Alex Koxaras -Relational-

I agree! So many useful things!

Alex Koxaras -Relational-

This one should be really something to have experience! From my point of view, I'm glad that Ive found it as is (with both diagram and text).

Great question @Alex Koxaras -Relational- . Prior to automation I would say it was the flexibility of configuring the workflows. Properties, conditions, validations and post functions or allow you to create a powerful workflow to align with your business processes. However now that automation has arrived in my opinion is the biggest game changer in a long time. Finally, while I have not used it yet, as I have not had a need, I believe issue security schemes would rank up there as well.

Well said @Jack Brickey! Well said!

I would agree with what others have said about Automation, that is my absolute favorite. I used to work on Server/Data Center and we had the free version of Automation, but we only had a handful of rules active with maybe 5 executions a month. Now that I moved on to administer a Cloud instance we have about 50k/month and that is after I changed the top ones to be more targeted.

Recently, I would have said Automation for Jira...but for most daily user needs I would say it is JQL filter searches.

Even though JQL cannot answer many questions (it's not a SQL, "they" tell me repeatedly :^) for most people it helps to find things, update board views, produce data for exports/reports, etc. and adjust Jira behavior to support how teams work.
