Stop Managing Jira Users Manually : Automate License Management

[#1]

As your Jira instance grows, managing user access can quickly become a challenge.

Users join, change roles, become inactive, or simply stop using jira but their licenses remain active.

This can lead to unused licenses, unnecessary costs and more manual work for Jira administrators.

Checking users one by one and deciding who should keep their license is not only time-consuming but also difficult to maintain consistently.

              The Solution : Automate license Management 

With License Cost Optimizer for Jira, you can take a more proactive approach to license management.

Instead of monitoring users manually, you can create automation rules that identify inactive users and automatically take action based on your defined criteria.

For example, you can configure a rule to:

• Identify users who have been inactive for a specific period.
• Automatically suspend their licenses.
• Run the rule manually whenever needed.
• Review the results, including suspended and skipped users.

This helps administrators reduce unused licenses while keeping user management more consistent and efficient.

And what about you? How do you manage users in your Jira instance?
