Atlassian, the company behind jira is also an Australian company, not an American one.
Their HQ seems to be in San Francisco though and they have a US stock symbol. So I guess they pay the majority of taxes in the US, no?
Which makes them inherently insecure.
At whoever is downvoting me you might want to do some research on Australian software laws before you get upset. I didn’t make the whole fucking planet backslide into authoritarian policies.
I mean, if I didn’t know what you’re talking about, that comment on its own would look very hostile. You can’t expect everyone to know the same things you do.
And yet their infrastructure is hosted on AWS
Has any major tech company moved their infrastructure from AWS? Those things take time.
Unless you use a very limited set of features, you can’t really migrate to anything else than another of the big American clouds. And maybe some Chinese ones, though I’ve never seen what they offer.
It doesn’t look like it’s a particularly good replacement for Jira. It looks like a very basic service desk issue tracker, analogous to any number of generic issue trackers.
What makes this stand out so much it’s worth a post? What’s it’s killer feature?
The fact that it’s a Scottish company.
If you have any other Europe-based alternative to Jira, feel free to share!
That basically locks you down to small, proprietary software. There’s several open source options that are majority European. Open project is the most German software to ever german. Redmine seems mostly euro.
Oh shit sorry I forgot Scotland isn’t part of Europe anymore nvmd. Yeah I don’t know of any Scottish…well, anything, actually.
Open project is the most German software to ever german. Redmine seems mostly euro.
Feel free to post them!
Well, at least our geography teacher taught us that UK is part of Europe, even if it’s not mainland Europe.
This seems to be an alternative to Jira Service Management, not Jira Software. There’s a very important distinction between the two.
why not openproject?
Feel free to post it as well!
