As mentioned in my first roundup post of the year, we’ve been seeing a lot of cloud app growth on the Atlassian Marketplace. In fact, we saw an impressive trend of 2 new cloud apps every business day in the quarter from January to March and that trend is continuing so far this quarter!
With almost 100 new cloud apps since our last roundup, it’s hard to mention them all. However, I wanted to share a few standouts and why customers may be eager to give these new apps a try.
Create on Transition for Jira.
The first of several Appfire apps to move to cloud this month and it’s a whopper. In fact, it’s actually takes features from two of their apps - Create on Transition and Update on Transition and turns it into one powerful Jira Cloud workflow app!
UserTesting - On-Demand Human Insights.
Need to pull your customer feedback together? Embed real customer feedback during the development process with this integration for UserTesting. This integration helps you stay aligned with the customer and make sure you keep their feedback front of mind during the development process.
This app can provide great insight into how your team is performing against your set SLAs and send reminders if you are close to breaching one. Start tracking your SLAs in as easy as a few minutes and then use the built-in reports so you can see how you track over time.
The colors in this calendar will make any visual person fall in love with this activity tracker. The app uses colors to show issue changes as a calendar event and even helps users identify slowly performed tasks. Filter by JQL in order to choose what tickets get shown and customize colors to highlight important statuses.
Another new Appfire cloud app, this one allows users to create custom templates for cloning operations and include (or exclude) custom fields during the cloning process. Copying everything about your ticket or epic for increased speed of operations, like watchers, links, subtasks, and estimates.
If you struggle with getting multiple tickets for the same task and need a way to merge them together easily then this app may be a good option for you. You can restrict who has the ability to merge tickets and then select which fields to merge over (including comments, custom fields, watchers, and more!).
Google Analytics in JSD (Cloud).
Quickly connect your Google Analytics to your Jira Service Desk to better understand where your customers are engaging your help desk (and where they are not). Track all your content and create custom reports for all your Jira Service Desk content.
Manage features and change your software configuration using ConfigCat feature flags, without the need to re-deploy code. Great even for non-technical team members to turn features on / off right from a linked Issue on your Jira board. Also add Targeting or Percentage Rules just as easily!
Are you a fan of the Pomodoro technique of time management or familiar with the concept of time-boxing? This app brings the benefits of this technique right to Jira and creates and tracks your Pomodoros and informs you when you are ready for a break. Another benefits is that it can inform your team members who is currently in a Pomorodo so you don’t get interrupted!

Sometimes tabs are easier than scrolling through long pages and if you’re a fan of easily identifiable sections, then you’ll like this app. The Tabs macro allows users to easily embed the macros and structure and organize your Confluence content the way you want. We all love a little flexibility 😉.
If your team uses that status function in Confluence a lot, then you’ll love this app. This handy macro (pun intended) allows users to easily modify the status of work on the go and adds a lot more colors to make your work more eye catching!
