I moved my small team to phabricator after a couple years of using GitHub and Asana. We all loved phabricator from previous companies.
Not only was it really easy to set up, but I think we all enjoy our tools a lot more now too. I still contend that phabricator rules the code review world: nothing else is as good. The projects feature feels just as good as Asana but without the slowness.
We do still use GitHub just as a dumb master (phabricator imports from it), but I’ll likely invert that soon enough to use GitHub as a mirror.
Interesting, as I have the inverse experience with Phabricator (and the related tools in that ecosystem like arcanist). I don't like it, and nobody else seems to like it.

This is my daily nightmare. We’re building a competitor to Jira [0] so naturally we want to allow people to import their issues from Jira into our tool. Integrating to Jira cloud is a reasonably good experience. But Jira server? Total chaos. We needed to dig up an ancient OAuth1 implemention just to get users authenticated and it didn’t get any better from there.
One of these days I want to look into setting up Phabricator.
