Case Study: Sonatype achieves agile, real-time collaboration with Atlassian Bamboo

Hipchat helps Sonatype's distributed development team stay agile

Sonatype, a high-tech software company with a fully distributed engineering team across the U.S., Canada, and Europe, needed a better way to support 1:1 and group communication for its agile workflow. Using Atlassian Bamboo alongside Hipchat and Jira Software, Sonatype looked for a platform that could keep remote teams connected and informed without relying on email.

Atlassian Bamboo helped Sonatype streamline development by sending real-time build notifications to Hipchat when new builds were created or failed, while Jira integration made it easy to pull issue details directly into conversations. The solution became central to Sonatype’s agile process, improved day-to-day communication across the business, and helped multiple teams adopt Hipchat for support and sales collaboration, keeping workflows moving faster and more efficiently.
