Switching from Asana to Jira

Atlassian’s official importer pulls Asana projects, tasks and custom fields directly into a new Jira space, so this is one of the few paths here with a real import tool.

Switching from Asana to JiraVerified Sep 23, 2026

Quick verdict: Move to Jira once your team is doing software development work that needs sprints, a backlog and issue hierarchies. Use Atlassian’s official Asana importer, then configure your project type and board before cancelling Asana.

Switching Cost & Friction Estimator

Most buyers only budget for the new subscription. This estimates the hidden labor, data-cleanup, and retraining cost of actually making the switch.

Estimate assumes: 1 hour of data-mapping/cleaning labor per 2,000 records, a blended $75/hr ops rate, tiered migration & cleaning tooling fees, and 4 hours of retraining per seat at a $45/hr fully-loaded rate.

    Why teams move from Asana to Jira

    How the migration actually works

    Asana’s general cross-department workflows and simpler interface have no direct Jira equivalent — expect a steeper learning curve for non-engineering staff.

    StepWhat you do
    1Export your dataExport tasks, boards or issues from the old tool — CSV export or a native importer, if one exists, both start here.
    2Create your Jira site and use Atlassian’s official Asana importer to pull in tasksCreate your Jira site and use Atlassian’s official Asana importer to pull in tasks, projects and custom fields automatically.
    3Configure your project typeChoose a Scrum or Kanban project template, map your imported items into issue types, and set up your board and backlog.
    4Rebuild automations and custom fieldsRecreate any automation rules, custom fields or statuses the import did not carry over.
    5Invite your teamAdd team members and set permissions; confirm everyone can see the projects they need.
    6Run one full project before cancellingKeep both tools live until a full project cycle runs cleanly in the new one, then cancel the old plan.

    What this path doesn’t do for you:

    Jira’s configuration overhead (issue types, workflows, permission schemes) has no Asana equivalent to migrate from — you are setting these up fresh.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Does Jira import Asana data automatically?

    Yes — Atlassian’s official importer maps Asana’s standard and custom fields into a new Jira space.

    Will I save money?

    At the 1-10 user band, yes, slightly: $9.05 against $10.99 a seat.

    Do I need to learn sprints and backlogs?

    If you are doing software development work, yes — that is what Jira is built around.

    Do custom fields and automations carry over?

    Rarely in full. Simple field types usually map across an import tool where one exists, but automations, custom statuses and integrations are typically rebuilt by hand in the new tool.
