Free Jira Gantt FAQs for Visor
Does Jira offer a free Gantt chart?
Jira has a Timeline roadmap available in free Jira plans. However, there are limitations. For one, you can’t bring in more than one Jira project into your Timeline Gantt / roadmap; you also cannot visualize subtasks. However, you can do both of these with Jira’s Advanced Roadmaps. Both Jira Timeline and Advanced Roadmap are best for sharing your project plans with people also using Jira in your Jira instance. For an alternative way to make a Jira Gantt chart that bypasses the limitations of Jira’s free Timeline offering AND can be shared with anyone, check out Visor.
You can also see us unpack the difference between Jira’s Gantt / roadmap options here:
Is a Jira Gantt chart and Jira Roadmap the same thing?
Jira offers two roadmaps, which we compare in our Jira Timeline vs. Advanced Roadmaps article. In this article, we also go into how Gantts are more detailed project plans, while roadmaps are often more forward-looking strategy documents that go over big picture. However, both look very similar. So, a Roadmap could be a Gantt chart if it offers more granularity.
Can I add my Jira Gantt chart to Confluence?
In our Ultimate Guide to Confluence Gantt Charts, we go over how easy it is to create Jira Gantt charts in Visor that you can embed into Confluence. We also go over other Atlassian options for creating Confluence Gantt Charts.
Can I add Milestones to Jira Gantt Charts in Visor?
While Atlassian doesn’t offer a milestones feature in their built-in roadmap / Gantt chart options, Visor does allow you to create a colorful Gantt chart with milestones using your Jira data.
To add Jira milestones in roadmaps, you just have to create a free Visor account. Below, you’ll seen an example of a Jira roadmap with milestones (the blue diamonds).

Are there limits when creating a free Jira Gantt chart in Visor?
Visor is free to get started with. You can import up to 250 records from Jira and transform your data into a Gantt that you can share with anyone. You can add milestones, format / color-code your data, add filters so that you’re showing the right level of detail, and more.
The main limits to Visor are how many workbooks and views you can have, along with the access you can give to others after you make your Jira Gantt chart. But if you want to just create one Jira Gantt chart, then the only limit you’ll encounter is the 250 record limit and an export limitation. Only Visor Pro and Ultimate subscribers can export a PDF that shows their entire Gantt.

Is Visor a free Jira Gantt Chart plug-in?
No, Visor is not a plug-in. Rather, you can import Jira data into Visor’s spreadsheet-inspired workspace. From there, you can create Gantt charts, Timeline charts for capacity planning, a Board view, and more. Because Visor is not a plug-in,
Does Visor support JQL?
Yes, you can use Visor’s JQL importer to bring in more than one Jira project into your Gantt chart. If you have more basic needs for your Jira Gantt, then Visor’s basic importer will work just fine for you.
