Jira Software Licensing and Pricing

Trials for Jira Software Standard and Jira Software Premium can be started on the Try Atlassian Cloud page.

Already using Atlassian Cloud? Site Administrators can add and remove products and Apps via the Site Administration page of your Atlassian Cloud site at any time. Keep in mind, removing applications or Apps takes effect immediately, and no credit or refund will be offered for removing products prior to the end of a maintenance term.

We offer a la carte pricing for Atlassian Cloud. Your subscription starts with either Jira Core, Jira Software, Jira Service Desk, or Confluence as its foundation. From there, you can choose from available apps like Portfolio for Jira or any available in the Atlassian Marketplace.

Our monthly pricing is progressive, meaning that we offer volume discounts as you add more users. Each users' unit price is based on the pricing rate in which the user falls.

Jira Software Cloud Standard is the Jira you know and love today. Jira Software Cloud Premium helps teams confidently scale Jira Software across their organization by offering unlimited storage, a financially-backed 99.9% uptime SLA, and 24/7 Premium Support with a 1 hour response time. If you have concerns about downtime or service interruptions, are looking to scale Jira across your org, or have a globally distributed team that relies on Atlassian products as mission-critical for success, Premium is a great fit for you.

Jira Software Cloud can be upgraded from Standard to Premium at any time via the Manage Subscriptions page of your Atlassian Cloud site.

If you have experienced an SLA breach within a particular calendar month, you must make a request for service credit within fifteen (15) days after the end of the calendar month by filing a support ticket. For more information, see our SLA Compensation for Premium Plans documentation, or our Cloud Premium SLA Terms and Conditions.

We've designed Jira Software licensing to be simple, upfront and equitable. Your initial purchase entitles you to perpetual use of the software and includes 12 months of software maintenance – access to new software releases/enhancements, our world-class Support team, critical bug fixes, and security patches – from the date of purchase. While renewing your software maintenance annually is optional, it is strongly encouraged in order to ensure continuous access to all of the benefits listed above. 

Please note that 10-User Starter licenses are not eligible for Atlassian Support. Instead, support queries can be raised with the Atlassian Community.

All server licenses include 12 months of software maintenance – access to new software releases/enhancements, our world-class Support team, critical bug fixes, and security patches. Beyond this initial period, we strongly encourage renewing your software maintenance every 12 months* at our renewal pricing.

Software maintenance, included in your first year of use*, gives you the following benefits:

• Security patches
• Critical bug fixes
• New features & enhancements
• Access to Atlassian's world-class Support team for technical troubleshooting
• Developer license* keys (lets you test the upgrades before committing!)
• Potential to enroll in Beta Programs

In order for your software maintenance to remain active year-round, you must purchase it annually. Learn more about our renewing terms for software maintenance above. We also suggest making sure your business processes allow for frequent upgrades so your team can continue reaping the benefits enjoyed by other world-class teams.

*Please note that 10-User Starter server licenses are not eligible for non-production Developer licenses or Technical Support. 

Requesting an obligation-free quote is easy! You will just need to submit your request through the Atlassian Store. In the final step check "Get a Quote" and click submit.  Only quotes submitted though our online form are considered valid, screen prints of the shopping cart are not the same as a quote.

A Jira Software commercial/academic/starter license entitles you to:

• Install Jira Software on a single instance in a production environment on 1 server
• Perpetual Jira Software use
• Software maintenance for 12 months - including all updates and online support
• Application source code (under a developer source license which allows for broad customization)

Licensing fees are quoted per number of 'active users'. An active user in Jira Core is by definition any user account in the system with the "Jira Software Users" global permission or the "Jira Administrators" permission, i.e., anyone who can log in. Unlimited 'anonymous users' are permitted on all licenses.

An academic license is available for qualified educational and academic institutions (learn more). Please see the Atlassian Software License Agreement for details.

Jira Software Server can be upgraded to a higher user tier at any time. All data is seamlessly upgraded, and all upgrades include 12 months of software maintenance commencing from the date payment is processed. This will override any existing maintenance period.

Please Note: The below prices* are applicable for licenses purchased after 3-Oct-2019. Pricing for licenses purchased prior to 3-Oct-2019 will be calculated using the previous year's list price.

There are two ways to generate a server license upgrade quote:

My.Atlassian Account

When the license's Billing Contact logs into their My.Atlassian account, they can select the license in question, followed by Upgrade. You'll then be routed to our secure Quote & Order form. You can then select the product(s) you'd like to upgrade, and the User Tier you'd like to move to. When you're finished, click Add To Cart. You can then check out, or save the no-obligation quote for later. 

Atlassian Store

Upgrade quotes can be generated directly from the Atlassian Store. After logging in, you'll see Upgrade at the top of the page. You can then select the product(s) you'd like to upgrade, and the User Tier you'd like to move to. When you're finished, click Add To Cart. You can then check out, or save the no-obligation quote for later.
