Grew the Appfire Portfolio Across Multiple Ecosystems

Appfire completed a number of strategic investments that expanded the company's capabilities beyond the Atlassian ecosystem. These investments will enable the company to further enhance the new ecosystems it enters while also delivering the new capabilities back to the Atlassian Marketplace it has long succeeded in.

Notably,Appfire:

Entered the Microsoft ecosystem with the acquisition of top Azure DevOps marketplace company 7pace,the industry's first AI-driven multi-cloud time management solution.

Expanded its portfolio to include a solution from Nextup.ai that gives teams the ability to work more efficiently through the reduction of context switching for cross-ecosystem workflows between Atlassian and the Slack and Microsoft communities.

Further cemented the company's position within the Atlassian ecosystem as a trusted software platform to help make work flow more efficiently with its acquisition of Comalatech.

Over the past year,Appfire released significant product updates that support the company's mission of equipping and connecting every team to deliver their best work through:

The launch of Whiteboards.io,marking a historic first step for Appfire outside of the Atlassian ecosystem,demonstrating the company's commitment to launch standalone products that support teams across different environments.

The extension of its Cloud migration solution to fully support Jira Software,enabling a seamless migration solution for business and agile teams that need to migrate complex projects and configurations from Jira Server to Cloud.

The empowerment of teams of all sizes as they adapt to remote and hybrid work models by offering over 70 Cloud apps for free to teams with under 10 users.
