GitHub and Jira Software Integration

I was running an on-prem jira. But I felt like I was doing something completely wrong because it was so unbearably slow. I was slightly embarrassed that it was on me that this was running so slow.

Our team grew to the point where we needed a bigger license, so we just migrated over to Jira Cloud. And it was even slower than the on-prem install.

No "no project management" isn't a better solution. No, I can't name any alternatives off the top of my head that are better than jira. But holy cow, jira is not a good piece of software. It has a lot of great concepts, but it runs like garbage and really isn't THAT fancy for what most people require. Especially for the cost.

It's not good, but it's not exactly a risky move either. "No one ever got fired for choosing IBM."

We use YouTrack with great success. We have a fully fledged issue tracker we can customize to our needs, and the agile boards make planning and executing sprints straight forward.

You really do have to basically over-provision the crap out of it, to get anything even in the neighborhood of “acceptable” performance.
