JSU On-premise vs Cloud feature comparison

We have achieved feature value parity; JSU for Jira Cloud is essentially as powerful as our best-selling JSU for Jira Server!

While some unavoidable API limitations in Jira Cloud restrict the full capabilities of some minute features of JSU for Jira Server, we've pushed the parity as far as Jira Cloud allows. Rest assured, this does not affect the value JSU brings into customizing your Jira workflows regardless of platform.

See the parity tables of JSU features below for complete details.
