The Atlassian ecosystem is going through some major changes, and we are not staying behind. We want to offer continuous support to our users in their migration journey to new solutions. Hence, we are developing a migration support solution. Therefore, we will offer backup and restore options for Jira Server/DC and Cloud. With backup possibility, we also expand our family of tools to connect. We have already connected the BigPicture app with Trello team boards. We also want to connect Azure DevOps projects and Jira Server/DC instances. We also plan to connect with GitLab, Microsoft Planner, and Google Calendar.
Our first and foremost priority is user experience. We strive to even out the performance of modules containing large tasks and resources and shorten their loading time. Our next goal is to improve the performance of key functionalities, like scheduling and planning within modules. We want to make BigPicture even more transparent and user-friendly by enhancing sorting, filtering, grouping, and searching functionalities. Key operations will be amplified and multiplatformed for the data across the Box modules and other screens.
The more information you can gather, the better. Raw data is not enough. That’s why we focus on better visualization by powering the Reports module. It will present data such as cross-team dependencies, predictability reports, velocity charts, work progress reports, or team availability reports, to name a few. This is just a beginning, as we aim to expand the range of report widgets successively.
