Who set up those instances? The only Jira instances I have ever used were set up by developers and were really great, but I hear that it's a fatal mistake to ever let a project manager know there's such thing as the workflow editor.
- amatix 11y agoJIRA without spending the time to correctly set it up to match your workflow/approach/business is a complete waste -- for companies who do invest that effort upfront (and evolve it over time) then it usually works great.
- UK-AL 11y agoI have the opposite experience. The default JIRA Agile experience is great. It become a problem when a PM gets his hands on it, included about 50 steps with manual approvals etc.
- mgkimsal 11y agothere's an evergreen issue of "do you run your business around the software (jira defaults in this case) or do you make your software operate like your business?" There's arguments to be made on both sides, and there's never just one answer. Default JIRA flow for some people is probably a godsend compared to what they're coming from, and yes, for other operations, having it mimic what's already in place probably needs to be done.
