What are the limits to customizing Jira?

While Jira is highly customizable, its standard flexibility is somewhat limited. 

You can modify workflows, issue types, fields, and dashboards. However, certain customizations may require advanced development skills or plugins. Your Jira plan can also restrict the level of customization. That’s because lower-tier plans have fewer customization options than premium or enterprise plans. Not to mention, too many customizations can also hurt performance.

We help you overcome these limitations by providing expert guidance, advanced development, and building custom solutions where needed.
