I agree with jana being alot more disruptive than nidalee, but from a versatility point of view, nidalee, i believe, wins. Taking janna's shield into consideration, i think the healing is better. It scales better, and it provides health. Healing abilities, imho, are "permanent shields", considering that shields actually provide temporary bonus health. The speed bonus makes up in relative dps in case of janna's shield. Also, her traps are also support, provided you can make enemies run into them. It provides a big armor/resist debuff. I count this as a support ability too. It's true that it ends here, but unlike other support heroes, she's not dead if going against a damaging hero.

My main idea is that you can fill a spot in your team where you can support while not wasting a damage slot in the team, and that makes up for alot. But when talking about pure support roles, I guess yeah, janna and taric are better.
