With Performance Objectives: Charts for Jira, your team can gain valuable insights into the average time it takes to complete issues with varying story point estimates. A Complexity vs Performance report can provide your clients with the data they need, enhancing their understanding of project progress and performance.
In practice, opinions on how to use Story Points vary, with some teams adopting a hybrid approach to estimate Product Backlog Items (PBIs) by combining Fibonacci sequence numbers and time estimates in order to handle client expectations. Clients might not fully comprehend the advantages of relative sizing and Story Points estimation. Instead, they often seek data directly reflecting the actual time required for different tasks. This article addresses these concerns by guiding you on creating a complexity vs performance KPI report.
