We highly recommend working with your Account Executive or contacting Atlassian sales to develop a thorough value assessment so you can get a full sense of the business case for cloud, and opportunities for savings.

The per user cost of cloud is higher than Data Center, but what you get for this in cloud is significantly more impactful. In cloud, you get access to more apps, connected by shared, intelligent platform experiences that drive better decision-making, organizational alignment, and individual productivity.

Customers have reported savings of up to $2.2 million on a single project thanks to improved developer efficiency in cloud, not to mention savings on point solutions that can be replaced by native features in Atlassian Cloud like Analytics or Whiteboards. Plus, we’ve seen organizations improve alignment, productivity, knowledge discovery, and other critical levers that can help you do more with less.

This is because of our strategy as a product-led company. If you check our Earnings Reports or published Financial Statements, you’ll see that Atlassian’s Annual R&D investment remains a significant percentage of our Annual Revenues, meaning we invest our revenue back in innovation that directly benefits our cloud customers. When you compare that R&D spend to our Annual Sales & Marketing spend, you’ll see that it's the direct inverse of most every other “sales driven” Enterprise Software vendor, making Atlassian’s cost/value best in industry. And it is in our Cloud Platform that this value shows up the most.

If you’re migrating both Jira and Confluence, you can also explore our Teamwork Collection, which offers Jira and Confluence Cloud plus Loom for better async communication. To get a quick overview, you can see list prices online:
