Wisdom of the Crowd

Estimation Process

• When this method is selected, the user initiating the estimation (the owner) will be prompted to enter four unique numeric values (1-99).

• These four values will be presented as the voting options in the voting pad.

• Votes are anonymous. The results will show the distribution of votes across the four options and the list of participants.

General Purpose

This method leverages the collective wisdom of the team by providing a limited set of options chosen by the estimation owner. It's useful when trying to converge on an estimate from a range of possibilities or when seeking diverse perspectives.

Correlation with Story Points

The estimation value the owner submits is stored in the Jira “Story Point” field for the task.
