ã€World Wide Web Reporter Zhang Zhiying】The Atlassian Conference made a big splash in Silicon Valley in September. As a reporter from the Global Network, I was invited to the San Jose venue to get up close and personal with this legendary company: two young entrepreneurs who refuse to wear suits or tie. They chose to start their own business, and the commercial software they developed has traveled all the way from Australia to the United States. Just two years ago, they went public on Nasdaq in New York, and by 2017, their market value had reached $8.3 billion. At just 34 years old, these two founders became some of the richest people in Australia. What happened at the Atlassian conference? Let me take you back to the highlights. Foreign tech media have been covering this fast-growing company, which now has over 2,000 employees and is making waves in the Chinese market. Atlassian's success lies in breaking away from the traditional model of expensive commercial software and targeting the pain points of the industry during the digital transformation era. Their flagship product, JIRA Software, has become a go-to tool for agile development teams worldwide. As Atlassian expands globally, China is also beginning to follow suit. At the conference, founder Mike Cannon-Brookes told reporters that the Chinese market is huge, and the company is working hard to adapt its products to local culture and multiple languages. On Partner Day, Atlassian announced a major update to its logo. Previously inspired by Atlas, the Titan from Greek mythology who carried the sky, the new design reflects the company’s core value of teamwork. Instead of one person carrying the sky, the new image shows a team working together to support it. Atlassian showcased its full range of products, including JIRA Software, Confluence, Bitbucket, Sourcetree, ServiceDesk, HipChat, Stride, and Bamboo. While each product may face competition, Atlassian’s strength lies in integrating them into a powerful ecosystem that’s hard to replace. This year, Atlassian acquired Trello for $425 million. At the conference, Trello’s booth was also on display. The acquisition was driven by shared corporate values—both companies believe that collaboration leads to more than just individual success. According to Atlassian’s product manager Lingbo, different departments often use Atlassian and Trello separately, but the integration will enhance cross-departmental cooperation. Atlassian’s robust platform has attracted thousands of developers worldwide, creating a vibrant ecosystem. At the event, numerous international app developers came to Silicon Valley to showcase their tools, demonstrating the platform’s global reach and influence. Among the featured apps were eazy BI, an EU-based company offering analytics tools for Atlassian products, and TEMPO, which provides applications for tracking team hours, project progress, and budget planning. These examples highlight the vast business opportunities within Atlassian’s ecosystem. The event also showcased various creative Kanban applications. Whiteboards and sticky notes are common in offices today, reflecting the popularity of agile methodologies. Agile management is no longer limited to IT departments—it’s spreading across all areas of organizations. The Atlassian “China Team†included representatives from Almatis, Beijing Sinok, and Longzhi. These three companies were among the few Chinese faces at the conference, highlighting Atlassian’s growing presence in the region. In recent years, Atlassian has embraced the digital transformation trend in China. Many well-known large enterprises have adopted JIRA products. The server version of Atlassian software is especially popular in China, though some users wish it could update as quickly as the cloud version. Bryan Rollins, head of server business, explained that while the server version updates slower, it benefits from the cloud version’s tested features. Popular and practical functions are later integrated into the server version, ensuring stability and maturity. This approach gives the server version a competitive edge in reliability and performance.
