Development tools do not manage the whole account
Keep CRM, commercial context and client-facing project information outside the issue tracker but connected to the same Job.
JobCue for app & software development agencies
Keep commercial client management around the development work — before, during and after release.
Software agencies need strong delivery tooling, but they also need a reliable operational layer around the build: client relationships, proposals, projects, time, approvals, support and recurring services. JobCue can sit across that wider agency lifecycle, keeping the customer and commercial history connected while development teams continue to work with the technical tools they need.

What buyers are looking for
Looking for software agency project management software?
Software agency leaders need client delivery, time, support and recurring work to stay commercially connected while developers continue using specialist source-control and development tools.
Scope and approval decisions get lost
Use structured content/review workflows for specifications, assets and client decisions where formal approval matters.
Post-launch support becomes a new silo
Support and recurring services can remain attached to the original customer relationship.
