Jira-SAP integration, Jira Work Management, PPM with Jira Software and Teamworkx Cloud Hosted – as you can see, our May update will be colorful, informative and once again clearly shows how flexible Jira can be used in different solutions and projects.
Building bridges – Jira-SAP integration made easy is the topic in our free webinar on 17 June 2021 (11:00-11:45), to which we cordially invite you. Our experts Frank Zenker (CAS AG) and Dr. Wolfgang Tank (catworkx) will show you how to combine both worlds and thereby create integrated solutions without media breaks for your company.
Jira was of course also a “protagonist” at the big online annual event Atlassian Team’21, which took place at the end of April. The focus was on major product announcements, such as the new Atlassian program “Point A”, for developing new products in collaboration with customers. Five new products were introduced directly, most notably Jira Work Management for business teams of all types, as well as Jira Product Discovery, Team Central, Compass, and Halp.
From theory to practical application: Our new success story describes how Jira software and Teamworkx Cloud Hosted are used for centrally controlled project portfolio management at Wienerberger, the world’s largest brick manufacturer.
Finally, the focus is not on Jira, but on a catworkx veteran: “The Lord of the Screens”. Our new blog post reveals who is behind this promising synonym.
We hope you enjoy reading it and get through May well.
Your catworkx team
