The new migration tool offers an extensive range of features, including the migration of product-level releases, requirements, incidents, tasks, comments, and attachments, along with program capabilities and milestones, product template settings, and system-level custom lists. Saab, a pioneer in utilizing this tool, has successfully migrated over 20 projects and 90,000 issues into their Proof-Of-Concept (POC) of SpiraPlan, demonstrating the robust capabilities of the tool.
