I sort of agree with you but I love JIRA. Tbe problem really lies in the way people use it. It’s just another tool, and it can be used any way your organization deems necessary. Unfortunately, most orgs tend to make a religion out of it, and the Agile process becomes bastardized by abusing JIRA. Just by observation, I have concluded that management loves JIRA precisely because it allows them to micromanage (“hey Temporallobe, how are you coming with story XY-5678? I see it’s been in-progress for 3 days...”). Again, that’s not JIRA’s fault, but to use an Agile term, it’s an “enabler”.
