Differences between Trello and Jira's Next-Gen Project?

[Claire Shimizu]

We have users who have been using Trello in the past but our company only has Jira software.  

I am interested to find if there's a comparison documentation or overview between  Trello  and  Next-Gen (Jira).  It looks like Next-Gen is much closer to Trello than the Classic projects in JIRA.
