Atlassian has been steadily strengthening its ITSM portfolio at a time when competition across the sector is intense. The COVID-19 pandemic has forced many IT organizations to re-evaluate their IT help desk platforms now that it has become apparent many employees will be working from home more regularly.
FREMONT, CA: Edwin Wong, head of product for IT at Atlassian, said Mindville will extend the reach of its IT service management (ITSM) portfolio, which involves Jira for project management, Opsgenie for incident management, and the recently acquired Halp software for conversational ticketing.
Mindville, which already makes its software available on the Atlassian marketplace, has over 1,000 customers, including NASA, Samsung, and Spotify. The acquisition of Mindville presents an opportunity for those IT teams to manage IT assets within the Jira ServiceDesk platform, which is vastly employed as a help desk to manage interactions with end-users, said Wong.

Atlassian has been steadily strengthening its ITSM portfolio at a time when competition across the sector is intense. The COVID-19 pandemic has forced many IT organizations to re-evaluate their IT help desk platforms now that it has become apparent many employees will be working from home more regularly.
At the same time, IT organizations are looking to decrease IT's total cost, which becomes easier to achieve if they acquire all their ITSM tools from a single vendor. Moving forward, Wong said IT teams should expect Atlassian to continue to tighten integration across both its ITSM and DevOps tools portfolio. The mission is not so much to converge every offering into a single platform as much as it is to seamlessly share data between all the tools that make up that portfolio, he mentioned.
This week, Atlassian disclosed that it generated $1.6 billion in revenue for the fiscal year, a 33 percent increase over the prior year. Total revenue was $430.5 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, up 29 percent from $334.6 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019. Atlassian completed the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020 with 174,097 customers based on an active subscription or maintenance agreements.
