BugHerd vs Jira: What are the differences?

Developers describe BugHerd as "Simple issue tracking for web developers". BugHerd embeds directly into a website so bugs are flagged and managed visually without the need to fill out lengthy forms. BugHerd also lets your client and stakeholders log bugs visually right from within your website or web application. They never have to switch into another app, and it’s easier and faster than sending an email. On the other hand, Jira is detailed as "The #1 software development tool used by agile teams to plan, track, and release great software". Jira's secret sauce is the way it simplifies the complexities of software development into manageable units of work Jira comes out-of-the-box with everything agile teams need to ship value to customers faster..

BugHerd belongs to "Bug Reporting" category of the tech stack, while Jira can be primarily classified under "Issue Tracking".

"Easy Setup" is the primary reason why developers consider BugHerd over the competitors, whereas "Powerful" was stated as the key factor in picking Jira.

YouTrack feels much more lightweight than Jira and additionally have all of features that Jira have, of course lacks at some analytics features, but it's more powerful at permission management and agile workflow. Additionally YouTrack have awesome integration with other JetBrains products such as incoming JetBrains Space and all other IDEs such as GoLand.
