Tagline

The most powerful Excel exporter for Jira. It's much more than "just an Excel data dump": it transforms any piece of Jira data to full-blown Excel reports, pivot tables, pivot charts, etc. and supports all the killer features in Excel.

Elevator pitch

Better Excel Exporter exports Jira issues to native Microsoft Excel spreadsheets (XLSX file format), which are also compatible with all other major spreadsheet tools (incl. Google Spreadsheets, Open Office, Apple Numbers).

Unlike other text-based exporting solutions, it works with precise data types: numbers are exported to number cells, dates to date cells, and so on.

It enables using Excel functions, formulas, charts, pivot tables, pivot charts, Visual Basic and all the powerful data crunching features in Excel.

It is extremely customizable via Excel templates, Groovy scripts, calculated fields, Visual Basic macros and more.

In addition to exporting Jira data, you can also integrate it with external databases, external API's and other Jira apps. That way it can channel multiple data sources into Microsoft Excel for simple-to-use aggregated reports.

It is super-flexible for a wide range of use cases: it helps if you just need a simple tool to move Jira issues into Excel, but can be also used to perform complex analytics or to implement Business Intelligence on Jira data, for example.
