Jira is an issue tracking software developed by Atlassian in the year 2002. It helps the teams in bug tracking and project management in an agile manner. It was built on top of Java, and project managers can create a board for each project. The tasks are represented as user stories based on the Confluence tool and added to the board. They plan sprints and distribute these user stories across the stakeholders. The project manager can set story points (or man-hour estimates) for each user story.

Both Trello and Jira are Atlassian products that compete with each other in project management. Let's look at the key differences between these two tools.
Task management is essential to deliver any project on time. It's a way of dividing the project into pieces and distributing work across the team like who works.
Trello follows a three-part hierarchy of boards, lists, and cards. Users can create a commission for each project. There will be lists like to-do, in progress, done, review, etc. Lists contain cards that have information on what the task is, who is working on it, the status of the task, etc. However, Trello doesn't provide any pre-built workflows. You can either copy an existing board or create one from scratch.
Jira provides kanban style boards where teams can plan, build, test, and release products. Jira will also have a kanban board for a project. Each panel will have lists similar to Trello. Tasks were added as issues to the lists. These tasks can be moved between plans based on their status. Jira provides workflow templates that the teams can use. Teams can also create their custom workflows.

All the team members should collaborate throughout the development of the project. It ensures that the product meets the changing requirements of the customers.
Trello boards can be shared with anyone, and all the users will have the same visibility on tasks and status. Users can add comments to tasks using @mentions, add files as attachments. Users can also use emojis in words. If there is any change in a card, the people assigned to that card will get notified with an SMS or email.
Jira provides standard features for collaboration. It sends notifications to stakeholders when there is a change in their assigned user story. It allows file sharing and messaging between the members of the team.
Companies today have many choices to use the tools in their preferred environments. Whether its on-premises or on cloud, several project management tools are available. Jira is available as both a cloud-based and an on-premise solution. However, Trello is only available as a cloud-based solution.
Although Trello provides flexibility for project management, it doesn't offer most of the agile features. It does not provide scrum and sprint planning, user story backlogs tracking, issue tracking, and code repositories.
Jira excels at providing standard features of agile product development. When compared to Trello, Jira offers additional features like time tracking, reporting, and issue management. It enforces easy sprint planning and shows the remaining sprint days. The reporting features like burn down charts. Users can either use scrum or kanban or can use a mix of both methodologies.
A user might have to exchange data between the project management tool and other tools. So the project management tools should provide third-party integrations. Trello offers integrations for Dropbox, GitLab, Google Hangouts, Twitter, Evernote, Slack, Telegram, and many more. Jira offers integrations for GitHub, Jenkins, Slack, Zendesk, Slack, Google Sheets, Microsoft Teams, Gmail, and many more. Both of these tools provide a free developer API that people can use for manual integrations.
The pricing structure depends on the features that the tool offered in each plan. Trello comes in 3 pricing plans.
As Jira is available both on cloud and on-premise, the pricing plans vary based on the hosted environment. Jira on the cloud comes in 3 pricing plans.
The self-managed Jira version is available for a trial period of 30 days. It comes in 2 pricing plans.
