Our company used Draw.io a lot... but we are migrating to cloud now and we will probably use native Confluence Whiteboards instead.

A lot of people mention Mantra. I've never heard of it before, but it looks very promising. I still hope some of these "intranet" functionalities will be natively in Confluence someday. Company hub is a first step.

Hey @Hana Kučerová,

 

thanks for your comment!

While the Company Hub is a step toward enhancing Confluence, it doesn't offer a complete intranet experience like Mantra does. Mantra allows for multiple hubs instead of just one, each customizable with an advanced editor and dynamic, personalized content such as news, events, and posts.

Unlike Company Hub's static pages, Mantra provides global, personalized navigation to make content more accessible. It includes a robust people directory with filtering, supports a mobile app, and features communities to encourage social interaction.

You can also use Mantra as a space homepage or integrate it via redirects, giving it more versatility. 

Mantra is not just about adding a hub—it's about transforming how your team works together.

I was hoping if any community leaders have in-depth best practice with integrating with Confluence Whiteboard with Jira/JSM/JWM - especially on how issues in project UI displayed once they are referenced in the Whiteboard.

Or if someone has an app addressing my ask.

Best, Joseph

@Frankie C_ I just realized you are one of the Confluence-data folks and saw your comment about Miro!

I am frequently an IC-consultant, so I use a lot of different apps/add-ons through companies I contract with. I try to be a good collaborator; thus, if it is feasible, I always try to download at least trials of client's tools on my equipment and get familiar with environment/solutions for issues.

Full Transparency: I am positive I integrated Miro specifically for Confluence and Jira when both products were still on Server. But, I can tell you, Miro was a very painless install! I remember specifically being instructed to use the Atlassian Marketplace integrations as they were easier to implement:

Miro Embed for Confluence

Miro for Jira

It's a bummer you can't get in on the new Cloud stuff! If you ever want to see a new Cloud add-on or feature, please don't hesitate to ask me for like, a bite-size walkthrough in a 1/2 hr-1 hr webex or something like that, I wouldn't mind at all!

We will take a deeper look into Mantra in the next months or so to see how it can be a possible fit or not.

Best, Joseph

For a business team, an important part of their work is dealing with planning and reports. Here are some apps that can be useful for this:

 

  • Time in status app can help track and build reports about team performances that work in Jira. 

 

 

  •  Table Filter and Charts – assists in managing tables, creating charts, adding spreadsheets, and generating engaging reports.

Nice to see many apps that are on marketplace so much time and also many new. It looks like over the time there is still room to give people from business teams something that would help then in daily work.
