Here are the issues though with Jira's Github integration: 1- Requires unito or an additional plugin to truly function 2- Needs quite a bit of setup to get minimal value 3- No built-in dashboards optimized for git events (ie when is a PR merged, predicted vs actual, how does that relate to your team's current sprint). 4- One-directional sync (vs a true bi-directional sync).

We've optimized for built-in dashboards, minimal setup and a bi-directional sync. Over time, we're also going to be building inside the terminal or inside Github's interface, to truly enable seamless interactions with Git.
