Switch to Planoda
Bring your issues, statuses, assignees, comments, and labels onto one fast, secure schema. Import from Linear, Jira, Trello, Asana, or a plain CSV, run both tools in parallel while your team settles in, then cut over with nothing left behind.
Pre-launch and building in public — the outcomes below are stated as design targets, not customer averages.
In short
The migration story
Switching trackers fails when it's a big-bang cut-over. Ours is three calm phases — pitch the team, pilot one squad, then migrate the rest on your own schedule.
Phase 1 · Pitch
Start free, spin up a workspace, and show your team the calm version of their day. No procurement gauntlet, no sales call required to evaluate.
Phase 2 · Pilot
Import your busiest team or project, validate the field mapping, and let a single squad live in Planoda for a sprint before anyone else moves.
Phase 3 · Migrate
Once the pilot team is comfortable, bring the rest of the org across, freeze the source tool, and make Planoda the system of record.
What comes across
Your work moves with its meaning intact — not just titles in a spreadsheet. Import from Linear, Jira, Trello, and Asana exports, or from a plain CSV.
Every ticket, story, card, or task — with its title, description, and nested sub-work — lands as a real Planoda issue.
Your columns and statuses map onto Planoda workflow states (backlog → started → done), so the board you know carries over.
Assignees, reporters, and watchers resolve to real members by email — invite your team first and nobody lands as an unmapped placeholder.
Comment threads and core history import onto each issue, so the conversation that explains the work stays attached to it.
Labels, tags, and priority flags map to Planoda labels and the priority scale, keeping your triage taxonomy intact.
Story points become estimates, sprints and iterations become cycles, and due dates carry straight across so planning data survives.
No big-bang cut-over
You're never forced to flip a switch and hope. Keep your old tool read-only during the overlap window, route all new work into Team Tasks so nothing is created in two places, and make the cut-over the moment your team is comfortable — not a deadline imposed by the migration. If something looks off, the source is still right there.
Migrate from your tool
Pick your current tool for a step-by-step playbook and an honest, row-by-row comparison.
Map Epics, Stories, and sprints to issues, projects, and cycles — and drop the configuration tax.
A near-1:1 model: teams, issues, states, estimates, and cycles line up, so the move is mostly confirmation.
Keep the kanban feel — boards, lists, and cards — and gain issues, estimates, and roadmaps underneath.
Carry projects, sections, and assignees across, then layer on the cycles and code links engineering needs.
Move Spaces, Lists, and tasks into a focused workspace — and prune the status sprawl on the way in.
Bring boards, groups, and items across and map your columns to real workflow states.
Move task databases into a purpose-built tracker while Notion keeps the long-form docs it does best.
Keep the tight code link — issue identifiers and PR references stay readable — while gaining cross-repo roadmaps.
Turn projects and to-do lists into a real board with states, cycles, and estimates — without losing the calm.
Stories, Epics, and Iterations map closely, so estimates, states, and planning history land intact.
Move work items, iterations, and area paths across — and shed the process-template overhead.
Why teams switch
What you're switching onto. We're pre-launch, so these are design targets and architectural guarantees — framed as illustrative outcomes, not measured customer data.
Illustrative targets — not fabricated customer metrics.
< 100ms
Triage that keeps up
Designed for sub-100ms issue triage so the keyboard never waits on the database. An engineering target, not a measured customer average.
One schema
Boards + issues + roadmaps
Replace a separate tracker, board, and doc with one source of truth — the consolidation most teams stitch together by hand today.
A weekend
Not a quarter
The export → map → import → verify → cut-over path is built to finish in days, not the multi-month re-platforming a tracker switch usually implies.
Per-tenant
Row-level isolation
Tenant data is isolated at the Postgres row-level-security layer — a database-level guarantee, framed as the architecture you're switching onto.
FAQ
The questions teams ask before they commit to a switch — contracts, data export, downtime, and lock-in.
Make the switch
Bring your export from any tool. Run both in parallel, then cut over in a weekend — free forever for small teams, no contract, no lock-in.
