Welcome to Power Admin for Jira

Are you dealing with complex Jira project configurations?

Do they contain hundreds or thousands of custom fields, workflows, screens, and other types of Jira configuration elements? Are you overwhelmed by the complex interactions you need to perform and the number of UI pages you need to visit to understand the connections between the configuration elements on a daily basis?

If you are facing the challenges above or simply want to use a more intuitive and easier-to-use UI, Power Admin is the perfect solution for you. It helps you find and configure Jira projects more easily by providing powerful search and filter capabilities with full usage and change impact information.

Configure and optimize Jira faster and easier using Power Admin for Jira.

How it works

Power Admin for Jira is an advanced administration tool that allows you to:

  • Check usage and dependencies;

  • Edit and configure elements.

Power Admin and CMJ dependency scan differences

You may notice that in some cases, Power Admin and CMJ report a different number of dependencies for a specific configuration element. This is completely normal, and it occurs because the two tools fulfill different use cases.

Learn more about this difference in the Dependency scan differences between Power Admin and Configuration Manager for Jira (CMJ) page.
