Integration of Project Online and Jira made easy by FluentPro Integration Hub.

Managing a vast project is not easy for Project Portfolio Management (PPM) administrators or Project Management Office (PMO) directors, especially when it involves coordinating work between IT and business teams already accustomed to a particular workflow. As a result, some companies prefer to combine the excellent agility of Jira with MS Project Online reliable functionality to produce efficient collaborations across departments.

But setting up and using Project Online Jira integration is also technically challenging for PMO directors and PPM administrators. When companies use Project Online and Jira project management tools simultaneously, they must cater to all stakeholders’ needs. For instance, management will demand to see a project report—a visualized format, usually as a Gantt chart (since that is how they are used to seeing it). When that happens, things start to get uncomfortable.

What about time and money constraints? The company has many administrative tasks to manage. Plus, a mandatory need to update the project information on Project Online according to Jira’s issue status. These scenarios are exhausting and time-consuming, especially when you are already saturated with many tasks, further adding to the expenses needed to run two project platforms.

Except there is a more straightforward solution. Luckily, there is FluentPro Integration Hub.
