“With Appfire’s two decades of expertise in the Atlassian ecosystem, joining the Cloud Advantage Alliance allows our customers to unlock the full potential of Atlassian Cloud and reaffirms our collective commitment to enabling enterprise readiness, enhancing operational efficiency and greater strategic agility for organizations worldwide,” said Paul Renshaw, VP of Atlassian Business at Eficode. “We’re working together to support seamless cloud migrations while driving successful business outcomes at scale.”

The Appfire Cloud Advantage Alliance methodology incorporates two key technologies: Appfire’s Configuration Manager for Jira (CMJ) and Atlassian’s Jira Cloud Migration Assistant (JCMA). CMJ, recognized for its ability to handle multiple instances and extensive datasets, facilitates both simultaneous and phased transfers. This ensures data integrity by allowing previews of changes and enabling precise adjustments before and after implementation. Complementing this, JCMA’s functionalities assist customers in assessing and preparing their applications and users for migration. CMJ offers a comprehensive solution for enterprises requiring more than a straightforward migration while also leveraging JCMA for simpler scenarios.

A pilot initiative incorporating CMJ has been launched to support the migration process for Atlassian’s largest customers. The pilot aims to establish a standardized approach by using CMJ as a key migration app for enterprise customers, highlighting its role in delivering seamless, efficient, and strategic cloud adoption.

“Enterprise migrations aren’t one-size-fits-all,” said William Mock, Global Head of Customer Support Services, Enterprise, and Migrations at Atlassian. “We look forward to seeing how Appfire’s Cloud Advantage Alliance helps meet the unique needs of our largest customers.”

“It’s about more than data integrity,” added Bob Nicholson, President of Appfire. “It’s about giving enterprise teams the structure, confidence, and change management insights to accelerate outcomes and drive meaningful transformation across their Atlassian Cloud environments.”

This strategic collaboration between Appfire and its top solution partners reinforces a shared commitment to streamlining enterprise cloud migrations and supporting long-term success for customers.
