Atlassian Cloud migration
Become more agile, drive innovation and improve productivity by migrating to Atlassian Cloud.

Whether your current deployment method is Atlassian Server or Data Center, migrating from on-premise to Atlassian Cloud is a big decision. And depending on your current set-up it can be complex. Our team is here to guide you along the journey for a seamless Cloud migration, providing expert advice and insight along the way.

Not sure if Cloud is right for your business?
Take a look at how Data Center or a hybrid approach can help you be more flexible, customise your tools further, and have more control over your application updates and data residency.
Five signs your business is ready for Cloud
- Teams are collaborating with other users in real-time
- Have a mix of technical and non-technical teams using your Atlassian tools
- Want a 'log-in and go' software as a service set-up
- You want to move away from managing your own equipment
- You use, or plan to use, a lot of other cloud based applications


What is the price of migrating to Atlassian Cloud?
Depending on the number of Jira users and add-on apps you have, the price of migrating to Atlassian Cloud can be more attractive than Data Center. You can do a comprehensive price comparison - including the cost of migrating your apps - in ‘advanced mode’ of our pricing calculator.

Our bespoke approach to migration
- Discovery:
Involves definition and confirmation of the scope of the migration (including users, projects, data, phases, etc), identifies the areas which will need further analysis (such as apps and integrations), and highlights potential problem areas to ensure they receive proper focus.
- Analysis:
Delves deep into Atlassian application usage in the pre- and post-migration states, looking at differences in features, apps, integrations, user base considerations, and existing target environment factors. Alternatives, workarounds, and the migration path are identified, and key stakeholders are involved for visibility and decision making.
- Rationalisation:
Implementation of all necessary pre-migration changes, including instance/data clean up and other complexity-reducing tasks. Opportunities are also typically taken at this stage to shift working practices and implement any other desired changes to yield a better post-migration state.
- Development:
Translates analysis phase results into a set of steps to execute the migration, then tests and iterates until ready in the development environment. Pragmatic methodology applies a combination of tools and processes developed by Adaptavist, and also provided by Atlassian and app vendors, to achieve the best fit for the needs of each migration.
- Testing:
Following internal tests, a system handover to agreed users further tests data and functionality. Issues are resolved as needed and users gain hands-on understanding of the new platform. Final sign-off is dependent on client agreement that the migration meets requirements.
- Migration:
Agreed migration procedure is executed using full production data at a specific time, with thorough development and testing having simplified the migration step as much as possible to limit risks and unknowns. Post migration support ensures any outstanding issues are solved, helps in user transition, and bolsters existing support capacity.
