Case Study: Air France-KLM achieves $600,000 in annual savings with Jira Software

How 100-year-old Air France-KLM saved $600,000/year and brought innovation to aviation with Atlassian Cloud Premium

Air France-KLM, the airline group behind Air France, needed a more modern way to support collaboration and delivery as its Jira and Confluence user base grew. Its legacy Atlassian Data Center setup on OpenStack was consuming too much engineering time, lacked many needed integrations, and made it harder to keep up with agile, DevOps, and cloud goals.

Jira Software helped Air France-KLM migrate to Atlassian Cloud Premium, giving teams access to newer features, better flexibility, and stronger GDPR compliance. With Jira Software and the cloud platform, the company eliminated more than 48 hours of downtime per month and saved $600,000 per year, while also improving productivity and supporting talent attraction with modern tools like AI-enabled capabilities.
