✋ Stop Overpaying for PPM in Jira ‼️

[#1]

If you’ve been in and around the Atlassian Community much, you might know me from my work here as an Atlassian Community Leader (cum Champion). But during normal business hours, I’m the Global Director of Products for Trundl Inc, a Platinum Atlassian Solution Partner.

In that role, I recently helped the company launch a new Jira add-on called Simple Portfolio Management for Jira.

Why did we build a new project portfolio management (PPM) product in an already crowded space?

Well, we saw an opportunity to offer something different; something simpler, and something more affordable.

Yes. The existing PPM solutions are powerful. But some might call them bloated and complex. Full of features you may never use.

Also, they’re expensive.

Not only are they complex and expensive, they’re likely built on Atlassian’s older, less secure, add-on application framework. Moving them to Atlassian’s newer and more secure framework is going to be a heavy lift.

In contrast, Simple Portfolio Management was purpose-built for Atlassian’s newer framework. It's called Forge.

And it includes the three essential elements of any capable PPM solution:

1. Cross-project, Gantt-like timelines to help you spot problems and visualize dependencies;
   
   
2. Portfolio-level cost tracking that supports multiple/local currencies by project;
   
   
3. And a single, simple, portfolio dashboard to keep everyone on the same page.

Plus, Simple Portfolio Management is budget-friendly. You won’t have to upgrade to Jira Premium or Enterprise for PPM functionality and you won’t need to buy multiple add-ons to get the PPM essentials.

By the way, when we say budget-friendly, we mean budget-friendly! Simple Portfolio Management is only $1.99 /user/mo. And the per user price drops even more for larger enterprises and annual subscribers.
