Pokorvs Planning Poker Online

One tool, one bill —
Jira sync included

Planning Poker Online splits Jira into a separately priced Atlassian Marketplace plugin. Pokor's Jira write-back is built into the €5.99/mo Organizer plan, alongside Notion, GitHub, Slack and Discord.

TL;DR

Planning Poker Online offers a $30/facilitator/mo ($300/yr) web plan, a free game limited to 9 votings and 5 issues for 6 weeks, and a separately delivered Jira Marketplace plugin; its web app supports Linear, GitHub, and Azure DevOps. Pokor is €5.99/mo for the organizer with voters free, async voting, Notion, GitHub, Slack, and Discord workflows, and unlimited active sessions on Free.

Honest take

Who should pick which

Pokor fits when…

  • You don't want a separate Marketplace plugin and bill just to use Jira during refinement.
  • You're upgrading purely because of the 9-vote / 5-issue free-tier cap — €5.99/mo is cheaper than $30.
  • You need async voting, Notion / Slack / Discord and exports — all not advertised on Planning Poker Online.
  • You estimate at most occasionally and the 6-week game expiry on the free tier is annoying you.

Consider Planning Poker Online when…

  • Your team uses Linear or Azure DevOps and you want native integration with both.
  • You need multiple facilitators per game with shared controls.

FAQ

Common questions

Is Planning Poker Online's Jira integration really a separate product?

Yes. The web app at planningpokeronline.com does not include Jira — Jira sync ships as a separate Atlassian Marketplace plugin with separate pricing (per-Jira-user, billed via Atlassian). Pokor includes Jira OAuth + write-back in the standard €5.99/mo Organizer plan, no Marketplace install. See the Jira integration →

How do the free tiers compare?

Planning Poker Online's free tier allows 9 votings and 5 issues per game, with games expiring after 6 weeks. Pokor's free tier is unlimited — unlimited active sessions per organizer, unlimited voters, real-time voting, Slack & Discord, and guest access — sessions don't expire on a fixed schedule. See full pricing →

What does Pokor have that Planning Poker Online doesn't?
