App integration with Jira Standard that delivers similar features to Advanced Roadmaps

Raedene Reardon

I am a new Jira user, and have much to learn.

We currently use Jira Cloud Standard. I am looking for roadmap features that will display:

- the release date of a project based on estimated timing included in tasks
- the estimated release date based on actual timings 
- task (and sub-task) dependancies
- the impact a delay in a task will have on the overall release date

Advanced Roadmaps provide a lot more features, however we are currently not using Jira Premium. Is there perhaps a stand alone app that would integrate into Jira that would display the features above?

TIA

Hello @Raedene Reardon, welcome to Jira and the Atlassian Community!

Yes, there are a number of third-party apps in the Atlassian Marketplace that could help you build a roadmap that displays this information. One of them is Structure.Gantt, the flexible roadmap and Gantt chart extension used together with Structure. 

Structure lets you build any issue hierarchy you need – including levels above epics – to pull issues from multiple projects and teams in one spreadsheet-like overview. 

Structure.Gantt then lets you visualize this overview in a roadmap format, where you can create and edit dependencies by drag-and-drop, use baselines to track progress, resolve scheduling conflicts in a few clicks, and more. 



Used together, they're quite a flexible solution, as you can build the issue overview you need on the left, expand and collapse the tree view as you see fit, and view the corresponding roadmap which dynamically updates on the right. 

Both Structure and Structure.Gantt are available for Jira Cloud, and you can try them free for 30 days.

Disclaimer: I'm part of the Structure team, but I hope this helps in case you're open to  different approaches! 

Best, 
Kathryn
