Hey there! This page is no longer being maintained, but we've created some new and improved resources to replace it. Head on over to our Quickstart site to check them out.

Listed below are a few features that make JIRA a great bug tracking tool. Check out our website to see more features.

1. Find your elusive issue with a JQL search filter

One of the most powerful features of JIRA is it's advanced search functionality. Once you populate your demo instance with some issues, you can try using the JIRA Query Language to locate them.
