The Best Jira Alternative for Solo Developers & Small Teams
Jira is built for enterprises with 100+ developers. If you're a solo developer or small team, you need something simpler. TriageFlow gives you bug tracking and Kanban boards without the complexity.
TriageFlow's clean Kanban board — no configuration required
Why Developers Switch from Jira to TriageFlow
🚀 Setup in 2 Minutes, Not 2 Hours
Jira requires project configuration, workflow setup, custom fields, and permission schemes before you can log your first bug. With TriageFlow, create a project and start tracking immediately. No training videos required.
💰 Free for Solo Developers
Jira's “free tier” is limited and pushes you toward paid plans quickly. TriageFlow offers a generous free tier that covers everything solo developers and small teams need—no credit card required.
🎯 Built for How You Actually Work
You don't need epics, sprints, story points, and velocity charts when you're shipping solo. TriageFlow gives you what matters: a Kanban board, severity levels, and a clean inbox for triaging feedback.
