- Increase communication and transparency
- Promote sprint planning and iterative development
- Improve team focus and organization
Although Jira scrum boards are ideal for highly technical teams who practice agile methodologies, teams of all types can take advantage of the key concepts of scrum and use the Jira scrum board to facilitate smooth project management.
