How does Planyway's Jira timeline view differ from Jira's native Advanced Roadmaps?
Planyway's timeline view is designed for operational flexibility, combining roadmaps, resource management, and time tracking in a single interface. While Jira Plans (Advanced Roadmaps) focuses on high-level portfolio management and strict hierarchy, Planyway prioritizes aligning plans with real-world execution and team capacity.
Can Planyway help manage team workload across multiple Jira projects simultaneously?
Yes, Planyway allows you to manage and balance tasks across multiple Jira projects with ease. It provides cross-project oversight, enabling you to see how much each team can deliver per sprint and plan accordingly, including setting individual hours and accounting for holidays.
Is it possible to share Planyway roadmaps with stakeholders who do not have Jira licenses?
Yes, you can share your roadmap view with non-Jira users without requiring them to purchase additional Jira licenses. Planyway supports exporting roadmaps to PDF or Excel formats, allowing you to communicate project status and plans effectively to clients or executives.
What specific metrics does Planyway provide to improve forecasting and avoid project delays?
Planyway offers a 'Planned vs. Tracked' comparison feature. This allows you to compare estimated time for tasks against the actual time spent, providing valuable data to refine future estimations, improve forecasting accuracy, and proactively identify potential delays.
Does Planyway support Jira Data Center deployments, or is it exclusively for Jira Cloud?
Planyway is fully compatible with both Jira Cloud and Jira Data Center versions, ensuring that organizations with various Jira deployment models can leverage its planning and tracking capabilities.
How does Planyway account for non-working days when planning team capacity and workloads?
Planyway allows you to exclude non-working days, such as holidays and days off, from your planning. This ensures that workload calculations and resource allocations are based on true team availability, preventing over-commitment and improving the accuracy of your schedules.
