Why Your Atlassian License Needs a Professional Review (Before Your Next Renewal)

Why Your Atlassian License Needs a Professional Review (Before Your Next Renewal).

Introduction

When it comes to Atlassian licensing, there's a stark reality many organizations face: complexity breeds overspending. After analyzing hundreds of enterprise Atlassian setups, we've discovered that most companies are overpaying by 30% or more. But why?

Atlassian Data Center Costs

Atlassian's ecosystem is vast and intricate. Between Jira Software, Confluence, Jira Service Management, and various marketplace apps, understanding optimal licensing structures isn't just about counting users anymore. It's about understanding:

• Complex tier structures
• User access patterns
• Integration dependencies
• App licensing overlaps
• Future proofing 
  
  

Why Traditional IT Teams Struggle with Optimization

Your IT team might be excellent at maintaining and utilizing Atlassian tools. But license optimization requires a different kind of expertise. It demands deep knowledge of historical pricing patterns, tier breakpoint strategies, app consolidation opportunities, usage optimization techniques, and alternative licensing models.

We can help you future proof your Atlassian suite and deliver cost savings simultaneously by consolidating your instances, making a transition to the Atlassian Cloud smoother and more cost effective.  

Unlike general software cost optimization services, we live and breathe Atlassian. Our team includes veteran Atlassian administrators that are in the Atlassian ecosystem from the very start.

We're deeply familiar with the Atlassian pricing structure.
