2 good news for Atlassian users
Great news from our partner. Atlassian has been named by IDC as “10 Innovative Applications Companies under $100M to watch“. Atlassian has exemplified herself in the following key trends in applications:
- Acceleration of software as a service (SaaS), business process outsourcing (BPO), and open source over traditional on-premise software
- New business models for software use by service providers (software-within-a-service)
- Web 2.0-like functionality moves into the enterprise (e2.0).
Another great news is that Atlassian has moved up ranks in this year’s Gartner‘s Magic Quadrant for Social Software in the Workplace. The report cites
Atlassian is a Challenger because it has demonstrated the ability to penetrate a global market with its popular wiki functionality…
Both news are good recognition of Atlassian’s good business strategy and effort to deliver good & useful applications to the world.
For our clients on Confluence and JIRA, you can rest assured that you are on a leading platform and expect more useful & interesting features in time to come.

Launch of Confluence 3.0
Confluence 3.0 has just been launched yesterday with many new features and improvements over the previous version:
- Now users can tap on the power of the macros easily without learning the makeup language with the macro browser
- They can find out more about their coworkers and discover experts with enhanced user profiles
- They can connect with their coworkers with Status Update (Twitter for your enterprise) and activities stream within their network.
Check out the video for a quick overview of what’s new!
[vodpod id=Groupvideo.2656857&w=425&h=350&fv=]more about "Confluence – 3.0 Overview video", posted with vodpodFor more details, you can check out Atlassian’s official announcement on Confluence 3.0
And here is how the community has reacted to Confluence 3.0’s launch.
Gil Yehuda, a former Forrester Analyst:
I found though both formal and informal surveys that Confluence lives at or near the top of the list of Enterprise Wikis when I speak to large enterprises. I can’t quote the formal data, but I can share the following anecdote: Many times I’ll ask a crowd how many people use wikis in their organization, then I’ll ask how many of those installations are Confluence. Typically about half of those who say they are using a wiki will keep their hands up.
Many large enterprises, like Accenture or Sun, have sanctioned Confluence as their IT approved wiki standard. Customers frequently use Atlassian’s Universal Wiki Converter to migrate other wikis to Confluence.
