Another App?

Most of roadmaps available on Marketplace are "Product" roadmaps and build around "What?" needs to done. This easy to use App is more about "When?" things will be done and what's included in deliverables planned?

Typical use cases

The App could be used as “Product“ roadmap to plan your Epics and scope it accordingly. Could be used as “Delivery“ Roadmap to show when versions will be delivered or sprints if you deliver at the end to each sprint. It can also be used a combination of the two to show Epics on timeline and how new features are two delivered across multiple versions/sprints.

Key Features

Available now:

  • Ability to schedule Versions, Epics, Sprints and Custom JQL Releases on Roadmap and Calendar view

You can select multiple projects from your Jira instance.

Q: Why we need projects?

A: We will automatically pull all your releases (versions) from all the listed projects to outline on Roadmap/Calendar. We will also sync them with Jira, meaning amends in the App will change Jira accordingly and vice versa.

The plan will be automatically created and you will be redirected automatically to it. The roadmap view is used by default with swimlanes tuned up by projects to show all your releases.
