The Atlassian Marketplace is a hub of innovative products designed to help customers extend the functionality of their Atlassian products. With 5,000+ specialized applications available, utilization of the Marketplace is essential for any Atlassian customers looking to get as much value as possible out of their investment.
At Contegix we are the industry-leading experts on the Atlassian Marketplace through our Marketplace Analytic Research Service (MARS™) database of Atlassian Marketplace 3rd party apps. A sophisticated database with 4+ years of history, through MARS™, Atlassian customers and partners can rely on us for objective, unbiased analysis and metrics on the Atlassian Marketplace.
MARS™ Categorizations
Our MARS™ categorizations are one of the main things that make it such a unique and valuable service to both our customers and the Atlassian community as a whole.
While categories assigned on the Atlassian Marketplace are self-selected (and are therefore naturally overdone) our MARS™ categories are assigned by us based on true primary functionality. If you want to see what we mean, filter by "Reports" apps on the Atlassian Marketplace and look to see how many tools whose primary functionality is building reports come up.
This stands in contrast to our MARS™ "Meaningful Categorizations" whereby we have carefully assigned categories that really represent the functionality and utility of each app. When we call an app a "Reporting" app or a "Scripting/Automation" app, customers can rest assured that these categorizations have been applied with the utmost care. If you have any questions or input about our categorizations then please feel free to reach out to us.
The Big 10
Out of our 24 MARS™ categories, which can be seen below, the 10 largest categories make up 90% of all instances.
These 10 categories represent the main areas in which Jira and Confluence users look to the Marketplace to extend the functionality of their products. Our report here will focus on those 10 categories.
