Sub-tasks Clarity for Jira - Convince your Boss

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Informal Request

Hi [Boss's Name],

Can I get your approval to buy the Sub-tasks Clarity for Jira app on the Atlassian Marketplace?

Getting a clear picture of our product roadmap is challenging and time-consuming. We are spending a lot of time correcting misalignment with sprint planning and delivery as it’s difficult to get a detailed overview of what has been done, what’s in progress and what’s not been started. This app can help us better execute our quarterly goals.

It allows us to:

  • Get a clearer visual indication of epic progress: Easily track the status progression of epics, including story points, time tracked, and time logged or estimated.

  • Quickly add and update the progression of sub-tasks: Quickly add subtasks without opening a new issue window and update the progress via a simple dropdown.

It will cost us $1,000 (50 users) to $2,000 for 500 users (see Pricing page). I reckon we will more than pay for this with the bulk features efficiencies alone.

You good to approve this one? 🚀
