And in many cases, it's 12 features, with 2 of the features not even existing in the big SaaS.

I'm pretty sure every developer who has dealt with janky workflows in products like Jira has planned out their own version that fits like a glove, "if only I had more time".

If companies wanted to build thier own simple-JIRA they could have built themselves before. I dont think making a kanban board was hard even before AI.

You’re describing Excel.

AI will be used to do “excel better” more than “replace a managed, compliant, feature-rich-carefully-engineered, service”.

JIRA especially, and I'm always shaking my fist at Atlassian that simple APIs or workflows or reports aren't already included in the tool. I have to pay some other company $10/user/month to get this dumb report your tool should already be able to do?? Insane.

Jira has had free competitors that do at least 75% of what it does since it's inception. You could find a dozen on github that actually look good right now.

In spite of this, Jira is bigger than ever.
