Discover a reliable Jira alternative for cloud and on-premises

This reality may have sparked a sense of uncertainty for Atlassian partners. But, the silver lining is that this shift is not just a challenge, but a golden opportunity for you to explore innovative alternatives that offer comparable, and in some cases superior, benefits at a more cost-effective price point.

With a rich history of over 15 years, Easy8 has positioned itself as a robust, adaptable, and economically appealing open-source alternative to Jira, offering both cloud and on-premises solutions. 

Despite the industry's trend towards cloud-based solutions, Easy8 has committed to the continued development and support of on-premises applications, acknowledging the unique security, control, and flexibility they offer.

What benefits Easy8 brings?

Transitioning to new software may seem like a high-risk decision, but with Easy8, this shift becomes an opportunity for cost optimization and process reorganization.

Easy8's commitment means no excessive tier pricing, with costs calculated for users with at a lower price, and the freedom to choose the right solution for every user, including a perpetual on-demand option. 

This flexibility provides an economic advantage for companies with fewer than 500 users, which struggle to find affordable options with Jira's Data Center. 

Also, the switch to Easy8 allows firms to better adhere to GDPR and other company standards.

What can Easy8 do?

Easy8 has an impressive range of native features that eliminates the need for third-party extensions, thus reducing maintenance efforts and additional costs. 

It is extensible with plugins for Resources, Agile, Finances, CRM, HelpDesk, and DevOps. 

For Atlassian customers who need to replace not just Jira but also Confluence, Service Management, or BitBucket, Easy8 offers a complete stack replacement with dedicated alternatives for each tool, along with expert guidance throughout the process.

Cloud or on-premise?

Both cloud and on-premises versions of Easy8 provide the same feature set, meaning the transition from one to the other is straightforward. 

The on-premises software is sold as permanent licenses and maintenance, reducing the total cost of ownership over the long term, and updates are not mandatory. 

The cloud solution, on the other hand, provides access to a vast network of worldwide data centres and cloud distribution technologies, offering greater flexibility and scalability.

What about the transition?

Starting with Easy8 is a straightforward process. Easy Software provides a thorough transition plan, advanced importing tools for Jira and Confluence, and pre-configurations to ensure a smooth transition. 

There are also specific tools for Service Desk and BitBucket transition, enabling continuity of operations. 

The prices are always clear, with costs charged per user in 5-user increments, and you have four simple plans to choose from based on your business needs.
