"Jira Portfolio is useful for tracking time and hours. It's easy to manage, create tickets, and change the status of delivery reports. It's not complicated."

"Having an option to view dependencies between projects and teams is great."
"It is stable. I like Azure a lot. All our guys are Microsoft certified."

"Azure Pipeline and Azure Release are most valuable. I use Azure DevOps through pipeline and release."
"Detailed logs allow us to pinpoint the exact cause of any issues, making troubleshooting efficient and accurate."

"The features of Azure Repos that we find most impactful are those related to source control management within our DevOps code management processes."
"Azure Port is considered the most valuable feature."
"JIRA Portfolio's configuration management could be improved."

"It would be really nice if the solution provided a heads-up every time they enhance something or add new features."

"The tutorials for building pipelines are an area that is a bit technical for a beginner."
"Requirements management is an area that can be improved."
"It is very difficult to integrate the product with third-party tools."
"We would like some bidirectional synchronization. It's the requirement if you want to analyze it to software requirements, et cetera. That's something that most of the tools aren't that good at."
"Not all companies use the same methodology which could limit the use of this solution."
"The ability to extend work items was more flexible than it is now. Talking version control, one of our customers had some issues because they found it very difficult to manage more than 1000 repositories for one team project."
"Microsoft could improve Visual Studio by making it easier to find the plugins you need to get your job done. Maybe they could implement an AI search instead of a simple tech search. Sometimes, people come up with a catchy name for something, and you don't know how it's spelled. For example, a developer might come up with a packet wizard and spell weird, like P-A-K-I-T."
"Something that could be improved is the initial setup with the integration of ReadyAPI."
