- iaresee 8y agoThat’s not enough to represent large, complex projects. And sub-tasks are implemented in this weird, dystopian way that makes them unreasonably hard to work with in the system.
- slider_thor 8y agoYou should check out the Structure add-on. Does unlimited hierarchies in a very intuitive way. Only for on-premise.
- geerlingguy 8y agoAgreed, the few times we've tried moving from separate linked tickets to sub-tasks have been disasters. It doesn't jive with any of the tooling in Jira to try to have tickets be like 'mini-Epics'.
- yxhuvud 8y agoThat is not enough! I regularly want to create sub tasks to subtasks, but it is not possible.
- Klinky 8y agoYou could also link to other tickets or Epics with "relates to" or "blocked by".
- wbl 8y agoAnd at that point why not Bugzilla?
- yoz-y 8y agoBecause "Oh, come on!". Just because you can implement any process in a list of text files and grep it does not mean you should. Jira has features that Bugzilla does not or needs plugins for. Should you just throw all of that away?
- ben509 8y agoThe complaint is that Jira's "features" are not much better. It's completely manual and only works if you strictly enforce conventions.
- p2t2p 8y agoYou also can have something bigger than epic - you could use Portfolio and create initiatives there.
