I mostly agree. It does depend who set up Jira and why. I’m a developer and have full admin access. I know exactly the kinds of tooling required for smooth integration with the rest of the business. Jira is the one product everyone involved agrees on. (If reluctantly.) It is a fuck-ton of work to set Jira up so it gets out of the way, but it has all of the customization I need to serve most of everyone’s needs. If anyone so much as thinks about enforcing workflows on our scrum board, they are going to hear my polite, but firm, rejection of such meddling. It’s our board and we let other people see it so they don’t have to bug us with requests for status updates. Jira isn’t a hard no for me because I’ve been an admin for it at both this job and my previous one. Let my team manage our stuff, and I’ll happily set up Jira to keep everyone else’s grimy paws off my team.
