We started using Jira to manage our internal development workflow. At first it worked fine, but once we outgrew the free tier, the cost became hard to justify.
At $15 per user per month, we were suddenly looking at a bill that did not match how we actually used the product.
What we Built
We created WannaTrack, a lightweight project management tool designed for small dev teams that do not need enterprise complexity.
The goal was not to recreate Jira. It was to remove everything we did not use.
Key ideas:
- minimal agile board with no clutter or heavy configuration
- simple issue tracking flow
- fast interface for daily development work
- minimal setup and no onboarding overhead
Migration from Jira
One of the biggest concerns was switching tools without breaking our workflow.
So we built a Jira import tool that lets you migrate existing tickets into WannaTrack without manual effort.
This allowed us to switch internally without downtime.
Where it is now
We now use WannaTrack daily for our own development workflow and are opening it up to other teams who feel the same pain with traditional tools.
