What is the difference between Atlassian OnDemand and Jira Cloud?

Question

We are new to using Jira, our license says it is Atlassian OnDemand, but I found a blog post that says OnDemand is being rebranded Cloud.

Is there a difference in Atlassian OnDemand and JIRA Cloud?  We want to use Zephyr, it says it is available for JIRA Cloud, does that mean it is not available for OnDemand?

Thanks

If it says so on the marketplace, then yes.  Bear in mind that Zephyr has both a connector addon (for connecting a Zephyr server to JIRA) and a Zephyr internal addon that implements Zephyr within JIRA.  I don't know which one of these you need.

Do you know if that means mean that Zephyr works with this version?

There's no difference.  Same service, new name.

Atlassian are still working their way through the re-branding, and some places retain the OnDemand stamp for various reasons, but it'll disappear in time.  If something says "OnDemand", you can read it as "Cloud".
