Is there a free version of Jira Service Management?
Yes, Jira Service Management offers a free plan suitable for small teams. The free tier supports up to 3 agents and unlimited customers, including basic ticketing, a customer portal, queues, self-service knowledge base via Confluence integration, and limited automation (up to 500 rule runs per month) with 2 GB storage.
But it lacks advanced features like SLAs, asset management, premium support, or higher automation limits found in paid plans (Standard at ~$8/agent/month, Premium, Enterprise). Community support only applies, making it ideal for testing or lightweight internal help desks.
