Simplify Your Jira Environment: A Customer's Guide to Do more with Less

Written by Nima Honarmandan | Jul 1, 2025 2:07:17 AM

As a Jira administrator, you're constantly balancing budget constraints, increasing system complexity, and a growing list of vendor relationships. This often leads to "app sprawl" – a fragmented approach to managing your mission-critical Jira environment, resulting in higher costs and operational inefficiencies. But what if there was a better way?

The Hidden Costs of Your Fragmented Approach

Many organizations rely on a portfolio of point software tools, each addressing a specific need but adding to overall complexity. The pricing shown below for each point software tool is for 1,000 users paying on an annual basis:

Beyond these individual apps, you might have critical gaps in your platform, such as limited integrated analytics (like Configuration Drift detection) and unified visibility into your Jira operations. This fragmented approach comes with tangible costs. For a 1,000-user instance, these seven apps alone can cost over $59,000 annually, yet still provide only partial solutions. You're also left with the burdens of vendor management, training overhead, integration headaches, and incomplete protection, leaving your business vulnerable.

What You Really Need: A Comprehensive Platform for Jira Admins

Imagine a single platform solution that provides complete coverage across all your Jira management and administration needs, allowing you to "Do More With Less":

  • Advanced Configuration & Change Management: Go beyond basic tracking with complete change promotion, sandbox testing with real data, automated deployments, comprehensive impact analysis, and intelligent rollbacks. This ensures risk-free, consistent deployments.
  • Comprehensive Drift Management: Automate the detection of unapproved or undocumented changes that occur to a system's configuration over time, causing it to deviate from its intended or baseline state. These deviations can introduce security vulnerabilities, performance issues, and operational inconsistencies within your Jira environment, making proactive prevention essential.
  • Comprehensive Site Health & Performance Optimization: Not just monitoring, but understanding root causes by correlating performance with configuration changes, preventing issues before they impact users.
  • Enterprise-Grade Data Cloning & Migration: Beyond basic cloning, gain intelligent template management, Asset data cloning, zero-downtime migrations, and sophisticated data sanitization for compliance. This accelerates projects and ensures data consistency.
  • Complete Data Protection & Recovery: Eliminate vulnerabilities with enterprise-grade backup, granular and point-in-time recovery, extended audit trails, and automated security incident recovery. This ensures business continuity and compliance.
  • Third-Party App Data Backup: Ensure that information generated and stored within applications not natively managed by your primary system (like Xray, ScriptRunner, JSU, JWME) is securely protected and recoverable.
  • Unified Analytics & Intelligence: Gain complete visibility with configuration mapping, dependency analysis, usage patterns, andDon't continue to accept partial solutions and unnecessary complexity. Choose Revyz | Data Manager for Jira and unlock the full ROI of your Jira environment.
