Hi Community!
I know how to change the issuetype Epic to Feature. 

My questions are around:

  1. Pros or Cons experienced by those who have changed the name of Epic to Feature (or some other name) in Jira cloud? 
  2. Were there any impacts with other Jira cloud integrations?

My org is considering changing the name of Epic to Feature, but I have read various communications about it (some good, most are bad). 

Thanks for your insights.

I think it comes down to do you want to ever use EPIC as an issue type later if so you might as well make a new issue type and then add FEATURE to the same level in the issue hierarchy within the plan settings. Communication, and terminology is hard to get right in an organization in general. I haven't experienced an integration/ addon difficulties so I can't really say much on the topic.
