💬 What Others Are Saying

"We’ve been using Colored Label Manager for Jira for a year now, and it’s made a real difference for our team. Managing multiple label fields is so much easier, and being able to control who can add or restrict labels has really helped keep things organized. The reporting features give us insights we just couldn’t get with Jira alone.

Big thanks to the support team they’ve been fantastic all year, always quick to help and super friendly."

 

“After Atlassian sunset the Labels Gadget, the Colored Label Manager team saved us! Their replacement gadget loads instantly, shows custom fields Atlassian ignored, and the color-coding is brilliant. We're now more efficient than before the change. Huge thanks to the devs for building what we truly needed!”
