Hello @A Sarkar

Jira can help you in managing your teams which may work in either Agile or waterfall. Jira is a Project Management and progress tracking tool. So you can define your custom statuses and workflows to get started with.

Hi @A Sarkar ,

Welcome to the Community! Jira is a very versatile tool that can be used for any methodology, Agile or Waterfall. Some of the basic trainings and documentation can help understand how to use it to adapt to your processes. Jira helps plan and track tasks, and manage workflows. It can also integrate easily with other tools, like e.g. Confluence for documentation, Github or Bitbucket for version control, etc. And with Jira Service Management you can create interfaces and workflows for incident management.
