Idea​

The inspiration for Buckets for Jira arose from the need for a more adaptable organizational tool within Jira Cloud. While Jira’s native boards are powerful, they rely heavily on issue statuses, limiting how tasks can be visually represented. We envisioned a solution that decouples task organization from workflows, giving teams greater freedom to structure their projects in ways that make sense to them. This led to the creation of Buckets for Jira, a tool designed to provide clarity, flexibility, and enhanced collaboration without disrupting existing Jira setups.

Whether you’re planning events, brainstorming ideas, or managing backlogs, Buckets for Jira delivers a visual and intuitive experience to streamline your team’s processes and enhance productivity.
