How Can I Reduce My Atlassian Jira Licensing Costs?

How to Cut Your Jira Licensing Costs

Navigating the complexities of software licensing can be challenging, especially when it comes to comprehensive solutions like Atlassian’s suite of products. At Elegance Group, we’ve honed our expertise to not only understand these challenges but also to offer solutions that significantly reduce your licensing costs. Let’s dive into how we can help you save money on your Atlassian licensing—effectively and efficiently.

Optimize Your Spending with Strategic Licensing Analysis

First and foremost, we believe in turning your Capex into a strategic investment that optimizes your operational expenses over the long term. Our approach starts with a detailed licensing analysis. We look into your current setup and pinpoint areas where you’re spending more than you need to. Our goal? To ensure that every dollar you spend on Atlassian products is an investment towards enhancing efficiency and productivity, guaranteeing a return on investment.

Consolidate and Annualize Your Licensing Bills

One of the simplest yet most effective ways we help reduce costs is by consolidating your licensing bills and converting them into an annual payment plan. This method not only provides a clearer view of your expenditures but also reduces administrative overheads and often comes with price advantages over monthly payments.

Identify and Eliminate Unnecessary User Licenses

It’s not uncommon for organizations to pay for more licenses than they actually use. We meticulously review your user base, identifying inactive users or those who shouldn’t have access in the first place. By ensuring that only necessary users are consuming licenses, we can significantly cut down your costs.

Utilize Native Functionality Over Marketplace Apps

Atlassian’s core products are robust and their native features are continually expanding. Many organizations find themselves paying extra for marketplace apps that duplicate the functionality already available in their existing Atlassian tools. We help you audit these add-ons and replace them with native functionalities wherever possible. This shift not only simplifies your tech stack but also helps reduce your Atlassian bill.

• We’re frequently able to reduce add-on expenditures from 30-40% down to 10-20%

Avoid Common Pitfalls That Inflate Costs

Many organizations suffer from poor licensing management practices without even realizing it. Issues such as:

• Poor Provisioning and Deprovisioning: Keeping a tighter control on who gets access and ensuring timely deprovisioning can prevent unnecessary cost accrual.
• Misaligned Atlassian Guard Tiers: Users not fully utilizing the core products can lead to misaligned expenditures. We ensure your Guard tier is perfectly synced with your actual usage.
• Shadow IT Challenges: Lack of administrative oversight can lead to unmonitored license consumption. We provide the governance needed to keep this in check.
