As a PM, I've generally used JIRA because most of the people using the product are engineers, and that's what eng management pushes for. I have generally found that most PM-oriented products like this just require me to duplicate all the stuff that's already in JIRA to the point where the additional effort just isn't worth whatever benefit I get.

Given JIRA's ubiquity, I would strongly recommend that you build an integration that allows you to sync tickets from JIRA -> Zepel, so people can get the benefits of the Zepel interface without having to duplicate their work. (Unless this is already there, but I didn't see it on the website).

As an engineer that just created a Zepel account, it looks to me like it would replace JIRA for all users. As an engineer I already love it. JIRA is pure unusable garbage.
What are those things that you need to duplicate?
Basically all the user stories/tickets.
