"Best" is determined by what technology you want to use, your reporting needs and what you're willing to set up and maintain.

There are several approaches

  • Write your reports as addons to JIRA
  • Use the REST interface to drag your report data out of JIRA and import it into a reporting front end (or copy it into the tool)
  • Use an addon that enables reporting in JIRA (Check the marketplace for Arsenale Dataplane and EasyBI - I think there are others that you should check out as well, but those two are the ones that spring to my mind when someone asks a question like that)
  • Replicate the database to a secondary copy and report directly off it - you'll need to build and maintain a data dictionary if you take this route
