I too would be thrilled for someone to eat Jira’s lunch, and am happy to rattle off a litany of what I dislike about it. But I understand why it’s used everywhere, and there’s more to that than mere inertia. It’s the least worst option, like democracy and (historically) capitalism. There’s other things out there that are better for a specific subset of users (engineers, management, PMs, whatever), but none that I know of that successfully manage the balance of giving everyone enough of what they need to be serviceable. Caveats: assuming a semi-traditional software company of moderate size using something Agileish. Places that are more process-innovative or -anarchistic or composed of all technical people or anything like that probably _can_ find a better fit with something else.
