What is License Optimizer?

If you’re using Jira or Confluence on Data Center, you are likely familiar with Atlassian’s tiered licensing system. As your user base grows, jumping up to the next tier can get expensive. License Optimizer offers an innovative way to stay in your current user tier without compromising access or productivity. With over 350+ installs across its suite of four apps, License Optimizer is already trusted by many organizations looking for a smart solution to a common problem.

How License Optimizer Lowers Atlassian Data Center Costs

License Optimizer is a powerful marketplace app that allows you to set up floating licenses. A floating license offers dynamic access management based on actual user activity.  Essentially this means that only active users consume licenses so you can maximize your current tier without paying for idle users.  It does this by creating a second user group that matches your actual organization size. It only counts users when they need access. Additionally, License Optimizer costs just $8,000 for 1,000 users.  Compare that to the expense of upgrading to the next tier, and you’ll see why so many companies are choosing License Optimizer as their go-to solution.

The License Optimizer works in tandem with another app called License Monitoring. While the Optimizer is a paid app, License Monitoring is a free companion app that gives users unparalleled control over their Jira or Confluence user counts. This free tool does the heavy lifting by tracking user logins and activity in your instance, providing you with essential insights such as Maximum, Average, and Last Logins. This app allows you to easily check how many users are actively logging in, giving you a clear understanding of user behavior. Additionally, based on the data it collects, License Monitoring can recommend the most appropriate user tier for your organization, helping you avoid unnecessary upgrades.
