Asana—Jira Migration for Danish Company

A Copenhagen-based SaaS provider serving the restaurant industry migrated thousands of tasks, comments, attachments, and custom fields from Asana to Jira Cloud using Getint. The phased migration retained full project history and enabled continuous Asana usage during the transition. Product Operations Specialist Andreas noted how Getint saved time, preserved data integrity, and allowed uninterrupted work—even during migration.
