About Us - Our Clients
Why Xporter?
JIRA export capabilities are limited to XML, Word, HTML Printable and CSV formats.
Users are restricted to simple and hard-coded layout.
They are not allowed to define what they want to get printed nor how they want to see it printed.
Why Xporter?
We believe exporting from JIRA must be easy, fast
and accessible to everyone!

• Print issues using customized templates to:
• Send mail/letter communications
• Create business reports
• Share information in JIRA with people that:
• do not have access to JIRA
• do not know how to use JIRA
The need for exporting from JIRA
• Create and share reports (on-demand and scheduled)
