Case Study: a non-profit center for scientific research saves $1M+ in Atlassian costs with Itransition

Non-profit Center for Scientific Research saves $1M+ in Atlassian licensing fees with Itransition

Itransition was engaged by a non-profit center for scientific research facing an extreme cost challenge. The organization, which used Atlassian Jira and Confluence for over 10 years across 15,000+ users, was confronting a potential price increase of 15x for Jira and 8x for Confluence. They needed consulting to explore cost optimization within the Atlassian ecosystem or potential migration to alternative collaboration tools.

Itransition conducted a thorough market analysis of hundreds of tools, creating a detailed evaluation and comparison matrix. They presented two clear options: applying for a free Atlassian Data Center Community license or migrating to alternative products like YouTrack and XWiki. The customer chose the first option. As a result, Itransition helped the non-profit secure a free community license, saving over $1 million in annual subscription fees and reducing their total cost of ownership for Atlassian tools by half.
