How Atlassian Tools can boost your Digitalization Index

Where does Germany really stand in terms of digital progress? The Digitalization Index shows that digital transformation is still uncharted territory here. Germany ranks in the middle of the pack in Europe, while Scandinavian countries and our Dutch neighbours are far ahead, setting benchmarks that we have yet to reach.

But there is hope! Atlassian tools like Jira and Confluence can play a crucial role in improving Germany's Digitalization Index. In this blog post, you'll learn how Atlassian's powerful tools can help you work more efficiently and agilely, and how they can help you tackle the challenges of the digital future.

Atlassian Tools to the Rescue! When it comes to 'the future of work' Atlassian tools like Jira, Confluence, and numerous apps & APIs help boost your Digitalization Index. The Atlassian ecosystem is your gateway to a smarter, more agile, and resilient work environment – both on-site and remote.

But why Atlassian? Here are 4 reasons:

1. Stay organized with Jira: Whether it's project management, service desk, task management, or software development – with Jira, you keep track of your projects and teams, no matter where they are. It's not just about the IT department; it includes all departments and business teams like HR, marketing, and finance. Information silos are a thing of the past – everyone is always in the loop, knows what's done, and what's next!

2. Easy collaboration with Confluence: The same goes for agile knowledge management. Whether your team is next door or on the other side of the globe, Confluence brings everyone together. Sharing knowledge, brainstorming, and documentation – with Confluence, everyone stays connected. Even Audi uses Confluence this way.

3. Flexible and agile: The Atlassian suite continues to adapt modularly to your digital needs. Wondering how they do it? Enter the Atlassian Marketplace. Take artificial intelligence, for example – there are over 300 applications in this area alone that you can use for your processes right away. All well-known APIs are also available for easy integration. This means that even the largest digital transformation project can be broken down into smaller, manageable development stages.

4. And of course, AI: Atlassian has recently introduced new AI tools, most notably Rovo. Rovo helps teams find relevant information across all Atlassian tools – saving each team member 1-2 hours per week easily. Think of it as Google Search meets ChatGPT, tailored to your company. Another Rovo highlight is pre-configured and customizable "agents" – they can handle complex tasks in areas like content generation, workflow automation, or knowledge management. One of our favorites is natural language JQL queries. You can formulate Jira Query Language (JQL) requests in plain language – brilliant!
