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!
