BigGantt is a project management app for Jira. Released in 2015, it delivers tools for project managers, i.e. a Gantt chart, and work breakdown structure.[3]
In 2012, eight years after the launch of Jira, Atlassian made Atlassian Marketplace available to the public to let independent developers make up for deficiencies of Jira.[4] One of those deficiencies is the fact that Jira centers on modern, agile project management methodologies and neglects traditional, waterfall tools, such as the Gantt chart. And according to Project Management Institute, in 2017 89% of organizations still used waterfall project management methodologies.[5]
