Audit first, then run

Atlassian managed support, run by named people who stay.

Atlas Bench, an Atlassian Platinum Solution Partner, provides Atlassian managed services and support: a standing team of named architects and administrators who run and improve Jira, Jira Service Management, and Confluence. The work starts with a Jira audit, our free Jira health check, which reviews accounts and groups, permission schemes, custom fields, workflows and screens, then governance, without changing your configuration. The same people then handle support by severity, administration, identity operations, licensing and renewals, user-count reconciliation, cleanup and standardization, and planning your next migration.

We run and improve your Jira, Jira Service Management, and Confluence with named architects and administrators who work inside your team rather than around it. It starts with our free Jira health check, an audit of your Jira configuration, so the work begins from what your site actually holds.

The problem

Support that does not know your architecture produces answers you have to check. The ticket closes, the cause stays, and the same question comes back next month from a different team.

The other failure is quieter. A site with no dedicated administrator drifts: duplicate fields, automation written for cases that no longer occur, groups that still grant access to people who left. None of it breaks loudly. All of it makes the next change, the next renewal, and the next migration harder, which is why we audit Jira before we take the queue.

What the work is

Support by severity

Requests handled against response and resolution targets for each severity, agreed with you and written down. The people answering are the architects and administrators who design Atlassian platforms, not a separate queue.

Embedded architects and administrators

Named people working inside your team, your standups, and your change process, from a few hours a week to a full workstream. They handle configuration, request types, workflows, screens, and permissions: the changes that would otherwise wait.

Identity operations

Access requests, group changes, provisioning exceptions, and recurring access reviews, run as a routine rather than a yearly scramble. Where Okta holds your identities, we make the change there rather than by hand in Atlassian.

Licensing, renewals, and user counts

Edition, renewal, and marketplace app questions answered by the people who see how your site is used. Atlassian counts a user toward billing once they are added to an app, even if they never log in, so we compare the billable count with headcount and close the gap before it carries into a renewal.

Cleanup and standardization

Debt found while running the site goes on a standing backlog, prioritized with you rather than quietly absorbed. Fixes follow the health check order: accounts and groups, permission schemes, custom fields, workflows and screens, then governance.

Release watch and migration planning

By default, Atlassian Cloud apps receive changes as soon as they become available. On Premium and Enterprise plans, the bundled release track groups most changes into a monthly release (Jira changes now follow seasonal release cycles), and a sandbox on the preview track gets them a month early, so we can test them against your configuration. We also keep a current plan for your next move, whether that is a Data Center upgrade, a migration, or a site consolidation.

How it runs

  1. Health check and onboarding

    2 to 3 weeks

    We start with the free Jira health check: accounts and groups, permission schemes, custom fields, workflows and screens, then governance, written up as a scorecard. The review changes nothing. Alongside it we capture runbooks, set up access and escalation, and write down what each severity means for you.

  2. Stabilization

    first 60 to 90 days

    Working the scorecard's fix-first list and the inherited backlog, fixing what causes repeat tickets, and documenting what was never written down.

  3. Steady state

    ongoing, reviewed each quarter

    Support by severity, administration, identity operations, licensing questions, and the improvement backlog. Each quarter we review volume, recurring causes, and upcoming renewal and release dates with the people who own the platform. If volume is not trending down across a year, the backlog is not doing its job.

What you get

  • A health check scorecard of your Jira, with the fixes that matter most named first
  • Written severity definitions, with response and resolution targets agreed with you
  • Named architects and administrators, embedded at the level you need
  • Runbooks for your configuration, integrations, identity operations, and escalation paths
  • A standing backlog covering cleanup, user counts, renewals, and migration readiness, prioritized with you
  • A quarterly review of volume, recurring causes, and what to change next

Questions we get

Is this a help desk?
No. Your help desk answers your users. We keep the platform itself correct: configuration, permissions, integrations, and the changes that would otherwise wait in a queue.
Does managed support start with a Jira audit?
Yes. We start with our free Jira health check, which reviews accounts and groups, permission schemes, custom fields, workflows and screens, then governance. We look and record; we do not change configuration. You keep the written scorecard, and where it shows more than routine fixes, the work follows our Jira cleanup and standardization order.
What are the SLAs?
Response and resolution targets by severity, agreed during onboarding against what your business needs. We write the severity definitions down, because that is the part that causes disputes later.
Do you handle licensing and renewals?
Yes. The same team answers edition, renewal, and marketplace app questions and plans the renewal ahead of the date through licensing and renewals. When the billable user count drifts above headcount, we match it account by account through license and user-count reconciliation.
Can you plan our next migration?
Yes. Running the site means we already know what a move would carry: fields, schemes, apps, and the accounts behind them. For Jira, Jira Service Management, and Confluence Data Center, the plan works back from March 28, 2029, the end of life date Atlassian has set for those products. See Atlassian Cloud Migration Services.
What if we already have an administrator?
Then we add to your team rather than replace anyone. Often the internal administrator is one person covering a platform built for a team, and the gaps tend to be identity operations and release changes. You get the same named people each time, because continuity is what makes an escalation cheap.

Training

Learn it in a class.

Live classes on the official curriculum, taught by the architects who run these platforms, each with a hands-on sandbox of your own.

Every course and learning path

Find out what you are actually running.

Fixed scope. The assessment reads the estate as it is: instances, schemes, licensing, and the decisions a migration would force you to make anyway. You get the findings, the ownership gaps, and the order to close them in.
