Atlassian products are about one step improved from corporate financial management software. Think about the last craptastic time keeping system you've used. They all seem to be terrible in some weird way. For example, the system at my company has unexplained checkboxes everywhere, and for some reason disables copying of charge codes once their entered onto a sheet? Why? Nobody knows, it's probably not a feature, just some nonsense produced by some compatibility requirement for an old browser or something. Who knows. Other fun things: - search doesn't work right to find codes - it won't verify if you can charge to a code until you've tried it - it won't tell you codes have expired when contracts are over - it's a huge process to review old time entries, especially old sheets filed by employees - etc. compared to this, the Atlassian products are at least usable when they're configured correctly. The problem is that they're almost never entirely configured correctly, or they'll somehow mysteriously fall out of correct configuration after months of working just fine. Oh, and this time keeping system is actually a step up from the old one we used to use. I guess what I'm saying is that they aren't state of the art w/r to usability, but they're also not complete bottom of the pile garbage. Trello is also a step or two above the normal Atlassian stuff, but the inability to self host and configure in certain ways also restricted the size of projects you could tackle effectively with Trello. Atlassian's normal project management stuff seems to work best at a scale just beyond Trello. And in that respect is superior.
