Do you spend most of your time interacting with other ISVs and channel partners, or are you primarily in a customer-facing role?

Atlassian has created this MVP platform which is highly scalable and allows customers to decide what they need, to work with partners like us to discover what kind of needs they have and to pay exactly for what they need. If you're a ServiceNow customer, you pay a substantial license fee and you're not using even 50% of the functionality.

I was going to ask you about JSM versus Atlassian or JSM versus ServiceNow. So that's a great start. Let's start there. You mentioned that you're doing a few migrations from ServiceNow to JSM.

The second use case involves migration. This usually happens when a company realizes they're not utilizing most of the features and need something simpler and more agile. We're currently witnessing this trend within large companies, but not enterprises. Enterprises are still willing to pay for it, perhaps postponing the switch. We receive many requests for quotes on the cost and duration of migration. There's a noticeable increase in interest.
