Mockups for JIRA: now with user-based pricing!

So Atlassian released JIRA 4.0 today. It is HUGE: killer usability coupled with awesome powers, the way very few companies know how to do.

Beyond the new features, we are excited about JIRA 4’s new user-based licensing model. No more editions (Standard, Professional, Enterprise). Now all of JIRA’s great features are available to everyone.

So we had to do a bit of a mad scramble, but we decided to offer user-based licensing on Mockups for JIRA as well!

There are now two versions of Mockups for JIRA, one that runs on JIRA 3.7-3.13 and one for JIRA 4.0.

The JIRA 4 version can now be bought for 3, 10, 25, 50 or 100 mockup editors, as well as for everyone on your JIRA server just like before.

The new plugin’s tiered pricing is more fair and matches GreenHopper’s pricing exactly. It’s also very similar to our own Mockups for Confluence pricing. Standardization = efficiency = Better support!

We have updated the Mockups for JIRA page with the new packages, which are available for immediate purchase.

I also wrote a Mockups for JIRA 4 Licensing Changes FAQ for any questions you may have about the changes. It answers questions like “Does my Mockups for JIRA license have to match my JIRA license?” or “Why don’t you offer a 10-Editor license level for $10 like Atlassian does?”

Last but not least, I’d like to thank Jonathan Nolen, Richard Wallace and Ben Speakmon from Atlassian for helping us with the implementation of these changes. You guys truly rock.

Onward!
