The time Is NOW to budget for 2025 IT initiatives. How will you invest in your Atlassian stack?

It’s that time of year—school’s back in session, the sweltering heat has subsided, and the air is even a little crisp. Pumpkin spice and everything else in full swing. It can only mean one thing.

Budgeting for 2025 is just around the corner.

And if you don’t start planning now, you’ll have to go another whole year with the status quo. But there are always more projects to tackle than there are dollars. What’s really going to move the needle for you?

The following are five ways to make an impact with your 2025 budget.

Migrate from that legacy ITSM platform to Jira Service Management.

If you’re still on ServiceNow or any other legacy ITSM platform, you can make your life a whole lot easier and in many cases, less costly by migrating to Jira Service Management (JSM). Not only is JSM packed with powerful IT service desk functionality, but it’s also a complete asset, change, knowledge, incident, and problem management solution. And it’s not just for IT service desks. Any department in your organization that provides services can create a portal: facilities, human resources, legal, and marketing.

And if your developers are already using Jira, migrating to JSM is a great way to tear down those silos between your DevOps and ITSM teams and get them collaborating.

Get more out of the Atlassian tools you’re already using. 

When it comes to enhancing their products, Atlassian is firing on all cylinders. Chances are, there is some functionality available to you that you're not yet using. Did you know that all that Jira and Jira Work Management are now one unified tool, so your business needs can use it, too? Maybe you’re looking to use more automation so things run more smoothly. AI? Never heard of him. Just kidding there’s no better time to get Rovo working for you.

There are an infinite number of ways to maximize your Atlassian investment, and Isos is here to help.

Get more strategic about how you’re using your Atlassian stack and take some pressure off your team.

We’ve never met a Jira admin team that didn’t have more work than time. But more headcount isn’t always the best answer. Isos's Managed Services team can serve as the extra set of hands you need and much more. They can take a strategic look at where you are today and where you want to go, then map out a plan to get you there. And tackle it one project at a time.

And since they're backed by the bench strength of the entire Isos team, they bring a wide range of specialized expertise to the table.

Make the move from Atlassian Data Center to Atlassian Cloud.

What’s holding you back from finally making the leap from Atlassian Data Center to Cloud? The reality is that data center instances are usually large and complex, and figuring out a path forward can be a lot of work. While there are some differences between the two deployment methods that you should know about, there are fewer actual obstacles than ever. And the reasons for making the transition just keep growing. 

If you’re ready to take a good look at whether Data Center is still the best choice for you and map out a plan to get your teams to the Cloud, Isos can help.

Get better alignment between high-level business goals and work.

Is what you’re working on really driving the outcomes your organization wants and needs? Is the way you’re working really serving you? Whether you're ready to tackle Agile at scale, simply looking for better alignment between business goals and work, or get your teams working in similar ways the Isos Agile Services team can help. 

From people to practices, to technology, our Master Practitioners can help with just-in-time, right-sized guidance.
