Might be a problem with customization.

THE main problem with JIRA is people breaking it with customization in one way or another.

Or put is on very slow, high network latency servers...

EDIT: Just to be clear, JIRA is never fast. But can be usable if you are not super sensitive to small latency.

The main problem with Windows 95 stability was garbage third party drivers, but we had no problem blaming Microsoft for that.

Really, why wouldn’t you blame the maker of the bed?

If you make a tool that encourages Rube Goldberg machines, then you made something far worse than a Rube Goldberg machine; you built a device to construct them.

Our JIRA instance would lag while typing in the description box. You have to wait a second or two for it to catch up after typing a sentence. It was absolutely unusable.
