The Structure add-on does a great job of rolling up. The Portfolio product was way too difficult to use--they rebuilt it so maybe things might be different now.
I agree there are/were the best in class for the money--but with Atlassian throwing all their resources into cloud now, raising the prices on on-premise, I worry for its future. I suspect we're only going to get timid features--nothing bold that might improve the UX/UI, or anything that will break the migration path to Cloud, which is their end-goal.
If I was starting out again, I'd probably examine YouTrack where there's at least some assurance they are investing in its future.
