Let’s be honest. In today’s workplace, things are a mess.
You’ve got one tool for tracking tasks, another for writing documents, a third for getting IT help, and yet another for your video calls. It feels like you spend more time trying to get your apps to talk to each other than actually doing your job.
Atlassian-the company behind Jira and Confluence noticed this problem. They realized that what we really need isn’t just a bunch of great individual tools, but a straight-up kit designed to solve a specific problem.
That’s what Atlassian Collections are all about. Think of them as pre-packaged, super-powered toolboxes. They’ve grouped their best apps, plus their new super-smart Rovo AI agents, into four neat bundles. Everything is already connected and ready to go.
Here is the simple breakdown of the four game-changing Collections and what they do for your business.
1. The Teamwork Collection: The Everyday Productivity Booster
This is the essential toolbox for nearly every employee, from marketing to HR to product development. It’s all about making sure everyone knows what to do and where to find the information they need.
- What’s inside?
- Jira: The famous task tracker. It keeps projects moving and makes sure nothing falls through the cracks.
- Confluence: Your shared workspace. It’s where you write down meeting notes, create plans, and document policies—it’s the single source of truth.
- Loom: The fast video messenger. Instead of writing long emails, you quickly record a screen-share video to explain something. It’s perfect for working with people in different time zones.
- Rovo (AI): A smart assistant that searches all your company’s documents and chat history to give you instant answers, saving you from hunting around for information.
Simply put: This collection stops the constant back-and-forth and gives your team a clear, shared space for planning and collaborating.
2. The Service Collection: Awesome Help, Super-Fast
This collection is for the teams that help others—specifically your IT support and customer service teams. The goal is to make it incredibly easy for employees and customers to get the help they need right away.
- What’s inside?
- Jira Service Management (JSM): This is the high-speed help desk. It manages everything from “my Wi-Fi is down” to complex server issues, ensuring requests are fixed quickly.
- Customer Service Management: Helps the company handle requests and complaints from external customers, keeping them happy and loyal.
- Assets: This tool keeps track of all your company’s equipment (laptops, monitors, software licenses). When something breaks, your IT team knows exactly what they are dealing with instantly.
- Rovo (AI): A smart assistant that searches all your company’s documents and chat history to give you instant answers, saving you from hunting around for information.
Simply put: This stops people from sending random emails to IT and turns support into a fast, organized, professional service.
3. The Software Collection: Building Better Apps, Quicker
This one is specifically for your software development teams. It gives developers everything they need to go from writing a line of code to releasing a new feature without any frustrating roadblocks.
- What’s inside?
- Bitbucket & Pipelines: This is where developers store their code and use automation to test and release new software updates automatically. No more manual, risky rollouts.
- Compass: An organized map of all the different pieces of software your company runs. It helps developers quickly find and understand the components they need to work on.
- Rovo Dev (AI): An AI assistant that helps developers write code faster, fix bugs, and understand complex parts of the system without having to ask a teammate.
Simply put: This collection speeds up the entire software creation process and reduces the frustrating chaos that developers often face.
4. The Strategy Collection: Linking Vision to Reality
This collection is aimed at managers and leadership teams. It solves the biggest problem in large companies: making sure that the big-picture goals set by the CEO are actually reflected in the daily tasks everyone is working on.
- What’s inside?
- Jira Align (referred to as Align): This powerful tool connects company-wide goals (like “Expand into Europe”) down to the specific tasks being worked on by individual teams in Jira.
- Focus & Talent: Tools that help leaders plan strategy, allocate money, and make sure the right people are working on the most important projects.
- Rovo (AI): A smart assistant that searches all your company’s documents and chat history to give you instant answers, saving you from hunting around for information.
Simply put: This ensures that every team’s effort directly contributes to the company’s overall strategy, stopping pointless projects and maximizing impact.
Why Does This Matter to You?
Atlassian Collections aren’t just new software bundles; they are a blueprint for a better way to work. By using a pre-connected system, your company can:
- Reduce chaos: Everything is in one place, reducing the need to jump between unconnected tools.
- Move faster: AI helps find answers instantly, and automated systems handle the grunt work.
- Ensure alignment: Everyone knows their work matters because it’s clearly linked to the big company strategy.
Instead of trying to force a bunch of separate apps to play nice, you get a system designed to work perfectly together. It’s time to stop juggling and start focusing on your actual job!
