Hi @Poorvasha Sudhir Kumar

Moving from Azure DevOps to Jira Software requires careful planning to avoid risks like downtime, losing information or having mismatched data. These are a few key parameters to consider for a hassle-free migration:

• Whether to retain the same templates from ADO or refine and improve them during the transition
• Operational downtime for ADO users during the migration process
• Differences between ADO and Jira field formats (e.g., HTML in ADO vs. Wiki markup in Jira) and how to handle them
• Smooth transition of dependencies and relationships between work items in the new Jira environment
• Choosing between a phased rollout or a full-scale migration
• Maintaining and supporting existing integrations, if any (e.g., with Git) within the Jira environment
• Team communication and collaboration during the migration
• Training required for teams to effectively use Jira post-migration
• Handling user permissions and roles in Jira
• Storing and accessing historical data and audit trails for compliance or reference
• Verifying the data and addressing any inconsistencies or errors after the migration
