Navigating Atlassian’s On-Premise Price Changes (February 2023)

On January 10th, 2023, Atlassian announced changes to their Server and Data Center products pricing as of February 15th, 2023.

These changes affect Jira Software and Confluence with impacts varying based on whether customers are on advantaged or list pricing. On Server, both advantaged and list prices will be changing while on Data Center only advantaged pricing will be subject to change. You can find more details on the changes below.

Changes – Breakdown

Note: Advantaged plans are grandfathered price plans that customers who purchased their licenses before a specific date have received. Historically they have been lower than list prices which are regular retail price (typically for new purchases).

A number of other important changes to Server come into effect as of February 15th, 2023:

• New purchases of Server apps will no longer be possible (excluding Fisheye and Crucible)
• This marks the final price change for Server before support ends next year on February 15th, 2024
