Atlassian’s suite of tools continue to be indispensable for teams managing work and collaborating across departments. Specifically, Jira and Confluence offer flexibility that is ideal for everything from agile development to content creation. However, as organizations grow and their needs evolve, many turn to the Atlassian Marketplace to extend the functionality of these tools. As an Atlassian Gold Solution Partner, SPK is deeply involved in helping clients enhance their Jira and Confluence environments. In this blog, we’ll share our picks for the top Atlassian Marketplace apps of 2025, based on what’s currently driving value for our clients.
Optimizer for Jira by Appfox
The first couple of applications our experts recommend come from Appfox. Appfox builds innovative apps for Jira and Confluence, the first being Optimizer for Jira. This app is an all-in-one tool designed to give Jira administrators insights into their Jira instance. With Optimizer, admins can pinpoint opportunities for improvement and fine-tune Jira configurations for better performance and usability.
Approvals for Confluence by Appfox
Appfox also has a great app we recommend called Approvals for Confluence. This tool ensures the proper individuals can sign necessary documents all within Confluence. This tool helps with compliance by formalizing the content review process with structured workflows and approval procedures.
Templates Agent for Jira by Appsvio
Appsvio is another great vendor that creates add-ons for Jira and Confluence. Last year we mentioned their Issue Templates Agent for Jira, Feature Bundle for Jira Service Management, and Content Template Macro that is great for Confluence. They also offer a Customer and Organization Management tool for JSM. This tool allows you to easily copy customer’s and organization’s data to Jira issues, integrating them into the workflow. In addition to this, Appsvio offers an integration tool that allows users to integrate Jira with HubSpot CRM to keep data together.
Epic Sum Up by Aptis
Epic Sum Up by APTIS is an incredible project management tool for Jira. It offers a range of functionalities beyond Jira’s native features such as real-time progress tracking and bulk editing to name a couple. Aptis also offers an Issue Viewer tool for Jira which gives external users the ability to view a ticket without a Jira Account. This is useful when certain customers would like to see the exact work being provided. Additionally, Aptis offers the Context Search Gadget for Jira. This tool allows users to create a filter or JQL for specific customers or tickets for easy searchability.
Timetracker from EverIT by catworkx
EverIT is an Atlassian Marketplace vendor offering many user-friendly solutions. Timetracker is a great intuitive time tracking tool for Jira. EverIT’s License Optimizer for Jira is another beneficial offering. This tool allows users to automate license management with real-time access control to allow more users to use Jira without upgrading license tier. Additionally, EverIT offers its Epic Roadmap for Jira which allows users to create and manage timelines for each board in their Jira instance.
Exalate Connector for Jira
Exalate is a plug-in for Jira that syncs environments with each other. While Jira users may use this tool to sync two separate Jira instances bi- or unidirectional, they also offer other integrations. For example, Exalate offers integrations between Jira and Azure DevOps, Jira and Zendesk, and more. These integrations simplify processes for developers working between the two tools.
Oboard OKR App
Oboard.io is the #1 OKR app on the Atlassian Marketplace. Objectives and Key Results (OKRs) are frameworks designed to boost productivity and keep teams aligned. They drive strategic goal-setting and measurable outcomes. Oboard’s offering, OKR Board for Jira enables teams to align OKRs with Jira projects seamlessly. This Atlassian marketplace plugin helps streamline tracking and progress management.
STM Issue Templates by Redmoon Software
Redmoon Software is a growing Atlassian Marketplace vendor and for good reason. They offer many useful tools for Jira. The first we recommend is STM for Jira. This tool provides a user-friendly way for teams to automate repeated issues by defining reusable templates. This automation makes issue creation quicker. Redmoon also offers Custom Fields for Jira. This tool allows admins to create project-level and issue-level custom fields as well as make them global or project-specific. This tool enhances flexibility within Jira. In addition to this, Redmoon offers its add-on, Comment History for Jira. This tool allows users to track all comment changes and deletions on Jira issues to ensure they do not miss any vital information.
Draw.io and Agile Hive by Seibert
Seibert’s offerings are incredible for Jira users. The Agile Hive app by Seibert allows organizations to leverage Jira’s project-tracking capabilities while adhering to the principles and practices of SAFe. Adhering to the Scaled Agile Framework is vital for certain organizations to run smoothly. Seibert’s other offering draw.io is a powerful visualization tool. This user-friendly add-on allows users to create powerful and secure diagrams within Jira.
Tempo Timesheets
Tempo is a vendor selling the number one tracking app for Jira, Timesheets. However, they also offer Custom Charts for Jira. This app allows users to view how work is progressing and then build charts and dashboards based on this data. It helps evaluate delivery, speed, and capacity across teams. Tempo also offers another visualization tool, Structure PPM. This tool allows Jira users to visualize multiple projects in one place, cutting out unnecessary exports.
Microsoft 365 for Jira by yasoon
The last vendor we will cover is yasoon. This company offers a great integration tool called Microsoft 365 for Jira.
