Microsoft's version of Jira is Microsoft Azure DevOps, which was formerly known as Visual Studio Team Services. Azure DevOps provides the same development and project management capabilities as Jira, such as issue tracking, Kanban boards, and Agile project planning, as well as additional features tailored for Microsoft development such as Continuous Integration and Azure Active Directory integration.
Advantages of Microsoft Azure DevOps over Jira include:
- Comprehensive set of features to create and manage any project, including Azure Active Directory integration for added security
- Built-in tools for Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) to streamline delivery of applications to Azure
- Ability to use the familiar Microsoft Visual Studio IDE with .NET, Java, Python and other development tools
- Automate the configuration, deployment and management of the full lifecycle of applications in different environments
If you are looking for an all-in-one solution for managing your Microsoft development projects, then Microsoft Azure DevOps is the perfect fit. To learn more, you can check out the official Azure DevOps documentation here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/?view=vsts.
