How Bad Was The Jagdtiger?

Much like the Jagdpanzer Ferdinand we talked about last month, the Jagdtiger was designed to act as a sort of heavy StuG, using its thick armor and powerful gun to attack both fortifications and tanks directly. The Jagdtiger was based on the chassis of the Tiger II (colloquially known as the King Tiger), and unfortunately inherited its problems. Surely it would at least be better than the Ferdinand, right? Don't get your hopes up.
