HISTORY

Jira software was founded in 2002 by two Computer


Science students in Sydney, looking for a way out of the
corporate grind; ok, now that’s a lot of success stories
with two guys and a dream!
In 2001 however, Mike sent an email to his course mates asking who’d want to help
him launch a tech startup after graduation, and Scott was the only one to respond…
and that was that.
They both shared a passion for computers and a frustration for the corporate grind.
And so together, they launched Atlassian, a tech support service that they managed
from their bedrooms at all hours of the night. Unable to make money at first, Scott
and Mike decided to change things a bit and start selling some of the software they
had developed to support this business of theirs. Life is such a play I swear!
Out of that grew Jira, a project-management tool that is used in all sorts of
endeavors, from producing medicine to exploring Mars! Today, Atlassian is valued at
over $50 billion, and Scott Farquhar and Mike Cannon-Brookes are Australia's first
startup-to-IPO tech billionaires.

PROS AND CONS
PROS

management methodology they choose, whether it’s Scrum or
Kanban. Multiple agile tools are included in Jira Software, from
backlogs, roadmaps, reports, integrations, and more, so that teams
have the flexibility to tackle projects in various ways.

CO
NS
Software Can Be Complex to Use.
While a learning curve is always to be expected when adapting a new project
management software, Jira Software can be especially challenging for new users to
learn, as it includes numerous complex and advanced features.
Easy team collaboration tools are lacking.
For larger teams and teams working across multiple projects, in-app collaboration
features can be a huge plus. While Jira Software allows visibility across projects and
workflows, the direct collaboration features are extremely limited when compared to
other software offerings that include built-in instant messaging and communication.
