Manage sub-projects on JIRA Cloud

Adrien Gaudon

Hello,
I would like to find a solution to manage sub-projects in JIRA.

In my company, we have one JIRA project per departement : Support, Product, Marketing
Each JIRA project need to manage sub-projects. A sub-project can go from 3 days to 1-2 years.

We are on JIRA Server and use the Structure plugin. We want to move to JIRA Cloud, but Structure is not available on JIRA Cloud.

I don't think I'm the only one with this need, am I?
What are the best practices with JIRA (Cloud) to manage small sub-projects, how do you do that? How does product company deal with them?

Do they all create JIRA project even for a two days initiative?
What plugin could help me on JIRA Cloud?

Thanks in advance for your help

Almworks are working on Structure for Cloud, I understand it's in Beta already.

I'm sure they'll be able to tell you more!

Thank you Nic, i didn't know that. But do you think that everybody in a similar situation should be using Structure, that it is the only option available?

It's the only one I've run into that enables you to pretend there are heirarchies like sub-projects. Most Jira users don't use sub-projects though, and when they need project planning, reach for Portfolio or Big Picture.

Structure is good at what it does, but I've seen it all-to-often abused - people building complex hierarchies beyond project/issue/sub-task, and then complaining that they can't find anything or report properly in Jira. By all means, use it, but don't let it get out of hand.
