Jira

Jira is Atlassian's work tracking tool for software, IT and business teams; Free covers up to 10 users and paid plans are priced per user by tier.

Our take: Atlassian's pricing page shows a different per-user price at each user tier and for monthly versus annual billing, so a single figure for what Jira costs does not exist and the page is best read as a table.

Atlassian sells Jira Cloud, its project management tool for planning, tracking and delivering work, in Free, Standard, Premium and Enterprise plans. The Free plan is for up to 10 users with 2 GB of file storage and no time limit. For a 10-user team, Standard is $9.70 and Premium $19.60 per user per month billed monthly, or $950 and $1,950 per year billed annually, and the price per user changes with the user tier (US dollars, checked 5 November 2026). Atlassian shows Enterprise only for 801 or more users and with annual billing, at $179,000 a year for the 801 to 1,000 user tier.

The bottom line

Free for up to 10 users; beyond that, paid plans are priced per user by tier, with Enterprise shown from 801 users, billed annually.

What it really isAtlassian's project management tool for planning and tracking work, used by software, marketing, IT, operations and design teams, with a Free plan for up to 10 users and per-user paid plans priced by user tier.
Our takeAtlassian's pricing page shows a different per-user price at each user tier and for monthly versus annual billing, so a single figure for what Jira costs does not exist and the page is best read as a table.
The Free plan has no time limit, which makes Jira a low-commitment place to start for a team of up to 10. The main decision points are the 10-user ceiling and which paid plan adds the controls you need.
Why we rate itWide feature coverage, a large app marketplace and a Free plan with no time limit, held back on value and ease by tier-based pricing and a plan structure that takes a pricing page to understand.
The catchFree stops at 10 users and 2 GB; paid price depends on user tier and billing period; Enterprise is shown only from 801 users, billed annually; Atlassian's pages give different Free-plan automation limits.

Best / not good for

Best for
  • Teams of up to 10 starting on the Free plan
  • Software, IT and business teams that track work on boards
  • Organizations that already use Atlassian products such as Confluence
Not good for
  • Buyers who need one flat per-user price
  • Teams that need to self-host beyond March 2029
  • Teams under 801 users who want an Enterprise price shown
Trade-offs

Friction report

Trade-offs to know before signing up.

  1. Time to value
    Free sign-up asks for a work email and no credit card, per Atlassian's sign-up page; paid trials run 14 days for Standard and 30 days for Premium and Enterprise.
  2. Scale breakpoint
    The 11th user: Free covers up to 10 users, and Atlassian's pricing page then shows the 11 to 15 user tier at $1,450 a year for Standard and $2,950 for Premium, billed annually.
  3. Walled garden
    Rovo AI, higher automation limits, cross-project planning and 24/7 support sit on the paid plans; Enterprise adds Atlassian Analytics and multi-site management.

From atlassian.com/software/jira/pricing, read on 5 November 2026 with the team-size box set to 10 and to 300 users and the billing switch set to Monthly and to Annually. Prices are in US dollars (the page's structured data lists USD). Annual figures are the total for the user tier: the 1 to 10 tier is $950 for Standard and $1,950 for Premium, and the 11 to 15 tier is $1,450 and $2,950. Atlassian's licensing FAQ says monthly subscriptions are billed on the highest number of users in the billing period. Enterprise pricing appears only with annual billing and 801 or more users: the 801 to 1,000 user tier is $179,000 a year (Standard $73,500, Premium $118,000), and the plan card keeps a Contact sales button.

From atlassian.com/software/jira/pricing, read on 5 November 2026. Atlassian's plan guide says every plan includes unlimited projects and work items. Atlassian's pricing page and its plan guide give different automation limits for the Free and Standard plans, so none is shown here.

Who makes Jira and what the words mean

Atlassian's Product-Specific Terms, effective 1 October 2026, name Atlassian Pty Ltd as the contracting entity for Jira and Confluence. Atlassian's beginner guide says Jira began in 2002 as a work-tracking tool for software teams, and its Jira page says 300,000+ companies power team collaboration with Atlassian.

Atlassian's current guides call a Jira project a space and its tasks work items; the guide menu still lists Projects and Work items/issues, and older articles and many explainers use projects and issues, so you will see both sets of words.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Jira free?

Yes, up to a limit: Atlassian's Free plan covers up to 10 users with no time limit and no credit card required, and includes 2 GB of file storage and community support. Atlassian's plan guide says the next step is Standard when a team passes 10 people or needs more storage, tighter access control, more automation or Rovo AI, and its licensing FAQ says Standard can be trialed for 14 days and Premium for 30 days (checked 5 November 2026).

How much does Jira cost?

The Free plan costs $0 for up to 10 users, and paid plans are priced per user by user tier. For a 10-user team Atlassian's pricing page shows Standard at $9.70 and Premium at $19.60 per user per month billed monthly, or $950 and $1,950 per year billed annually; for 300 users billed monthly it shows $8.48 and $15.56 per user per month. Enterprise is shown only for 801 or more users and with annual billing: $179,000 a year for the 801 to 1,000 user tier, where Standard is $73,500 and Premium $118,000 a year, with a Contact sales button. Prices are in USD (checked 5 November 2026).

Is Jira being phased out?

No: Atlassian's hosting guide calls Jira Cloud its primary, actively developed platform, and what is ending is the self-managed options. It says Server reached end of support on 15 February 2024, and Jira Data Center reaches end of life on 28 March 2029, with new sales and license expansions ending 30 March 2028 (checked 5 November 2026).

Is Jira only for software teams?

No. Atlassian's guide says Jira began in 2002 as a work-tracking tool for software teams and is now also used by marketing, IT, operations, design, product and project management teams. It supports Scrum and Kanban boards, and the guide says you do not need to know Agile: you can use it for simple task and project tracking and add structure later.

What is the difference between Jira, Jira Service Management and Confluence?

They are separate Atlassian products. Atlassian's product menu lists Jira ('Flexible project management'), Jira Service Management ('Deliver service at high velocity') and Confluence ('Knowledge, all in one place') side by side, with Jira Product Discovery, Jira Align and Trello as further products. Atlassian sells Jira, Confluence, Loom and Rovo together as the Teamwork Collection. Jira Work Management does not appear in Atlassian's current product menu or on the Jira pricing page (checked 5 November 2026).

How do I log in to Jira?

Conversion Gems is a review site and cannot sign anyone in. Atlassian's Jira sign-in link opens https://id.atlassian.com/login, and home.atlassian.com sends you to the same page; it asks for your email, offers passkey, Google, Microsoft, Apple and Slack sign-in, and has a Can't log in? link. Atlassian says one account covers Trello, Jira, Confluence and more.
