How Project Management tools integrate with Jira
The 90-second primer most listicles skip. Skim before picking a tool.
What gets synced
Link issues to development activity
Native vs middleware
The 17 tools below ship a native Jira integration: OAuth handshake, no Zapier in the middle. Middleware (Zapier, Make, n8n) is a good fallback for tools that don't ship native, but adds a per-task cost and a delay step.
Before you turn it on
Confirm sync direction (one-way or two-way), check which Jira plan or workspace permissions are required, and run a test record through before connecting production data. Most setups take under 10 minutes.

Jira integration FAQ
What is the best project management tool with Jira integration in 2026?
Teamwork ranks first in our project management list with Jira integration, rated 4.4/5 across 2,017 verified user reviews. Strong runners-up: Scoro, Planyway, WorkBoard.
How does Jira integration work in project management software?
Most project management tools connect to Jira via OAuth: you sign in from inside the tool, approve scopes, and data starts syncing. Sync can be one-way (push only) or two-way (bidirectional). Teamwork uses a native Jira integration that you can usually enable from the integrations or apps section of the dashboard.
Are there free project management tools with Jira integration?
Yes. Teamwork, Planyway, TrackingTime offer a free or freemium plan with Jira connectivity. In total, 8 of the 17 tools on this list have a free or freemium tier.
Native Jira integration vs Zapier: which is better?
Native integrations sync in real time, support deeper data mapping, and rarely break when Jira updates its API. Zapier (or other middleware like Make and n8n) lets you connect tools that don't ship a native integration, but adds a step that can introduce delays and a per-task cost at higher volumes. The 17 tools on this list all ship a native Jira integration so middleware is optional.
How often is this list updated?
We refresh editorial scores and integration availability weekly. Pricing is re-checked on a rotation that touches every tool roughly monthly. The list above was generated on May 29, 2026.
