Everyone needs a “big picture“ while setting both short-, and long-term objectives. It’s like a puzzle game – you need to fold different tasks and manage resources in such a way, that you receive a coherent picture at the end. Unfortunately, users can’t get such a picture in Jira as it doesn’t provide clear visibility. They can’t see the final point of the project, it’s challenging to plan in a long timeframe, as Jira doesn’t provide any kind of build-in calendar.
So, it’s vital to have a kind of planning calendar or timeline for every user, which will reflect the ongoing and future plans, but is flexible and allows changing them in few clicks as future plans are unstable and need correction.
