There are requests from certain stakeholders to move from MS Project to Jira. I am new to Jira. Would like to understand what's the additional features or advantages in Jira compared to MS Project or ServiceNow. Thank you!

Anish -

JIRA is primarily a work item management tool (it was originally developed as a bug tracking tool). It has a number of extensions and integrations which enable it to do a lot more, but it does not have a critical path methodology-based scheduling engine the way MS Project does, nor does it have true workflow like capabilities the way ServiceNow does.

So, a lot depends on the nature of work done by your team and which product's "out of the box" capabilities are a better fit for how that work gets done.
