Autodesk ShotGrid vs. Jira Work Management

ShotGrid seems to be well suited for a video team for reviews and project tracking. It may not be well suited for Project managers who need to see the bigger picture of the project.

Jira work management represents the solution that allows business teams such as Finance, sales or marketing to collaborate with technical teams within Jira. It has so many features like the List view, the Calendar view, the Timeline view, the Boards, Workflows, Forms, Project templates, Dashboards and reports and automation. Jira Core is very well capable of increasing productivity of the teams through centralization of information through these different types of views and the automation allows the teams to invest less time in configuration and more time in execution of work.

Incentivized

• Provide a roadmap of all epics
• Provide a backlog in which you can see all the possible work to be done to create your sprint plan
• Have all our projects within reach
• Have a dashboard with editable columns to manage your work
• Be able to filter by person
• Be able to see past sprints

• Ordering comments made by different people by timecode/frame number, instead by the time and date the comment was made
• Being able to move an uploaded video from shots to assets and vice versa. Right now we have to re-upload but lose any comments made already if they were in the wrong place
• Custom filters are great but they could get a little confusing with all the options. Might help with guidelines or a place we could ask what we want and someone could answer with the best way to achieve those specific filters we want

• More clarification on where to find useful tools and resources for new users.
• Breakdown of Projects, Tasks, Sub-tasks, bugs is hard to follow and cannot be changed once created.
• The ability to customize the dashboard/home page to fit the needs of individuals could use some work.

It's UI/UX is very robust. There's a lot of functionality but it's not very intuitive or intuitive. I spend time with new hires and contractors to overview ShotGrid for a day and revisit after a week or two. Questions always arise down the line

Wipster had limitations on video uploads, which was a major drawback. One thing we liked with Wipster was how we can see comments made in order on the timeline while watching the video.
