Jira can do almost anything, and sells almost anything. The options pile up, the lines blur, and it is easy to feel lost and end up paying for products you never needed. Scrumpy gives your whole organization a clean board, backlog, sprints and epics that people actually use, at one flat price you can read in ten seconds. One team or fifty.

You only pay for the people who actively manage the work. Stakeholders, clients and viewers come along for free, however many of them you have.
No paid add-on that one person needs but the whole team has to fund. The features you see are the features you get.
Your data is yours. Export it whenever you want and leave the day you decide to. We would rather earn the renewal than trap you into it.
One flat price per editor, billed monthly or annually. No quote calls, no add-on math, no invoice that takes an hour to decode.
The board updates live as your team moves cards, so everyone is looking at the same picture without hitting refresh.
You pick which statuses show as columns on the board. Keep a terminal status like Won't do off it, so the board stays lean and your active columns are always in the same place, not appearing and disappearing as they empty out.

The trouble with Jira is rarely the sticker price. It is how much there is to buy. The catalogue is vast, the lines blur, and it is easy to feel lost and end up paying for products you never really needed. Here is what one real eleven-person team actually paid Atlassian each month:
Jira
the agile tool, Standard, 11 users
$94.60
Jira Service Management
a separate help-desk product, 6 agents
$142.80
Test management add-on
a Marketplace app, billed for all 11 users
$60.50
Their monthly total
$297.90/mo
The same 11 people on Scrumpy: one product, one flat price
$99/mo
A real monthly bill, anonymized, prices excluding VAT. Only about a third of it was the agile tool; the rest was a separate help-desk product and a test add-on billed across the whole team. Both prices are monthly; billed annually Scrumpy drops to $82.50. (Heavyweight test-case management, if you truly need it, is a separate tool either way.)
We are not here to pretend Jira is bad. If you need deep enterprise customization, portfolio management across many programs, or its huge marketplace of integrations, Jira earns its complexity. Scrumpy is for everyone for whom that complexity is the cost rather than the benefit, whether that is one team or fifty.
Move your board, backlog and sprints over in an afternoon. No credit card to start.
