Question 1

How long does Atlassian Marketplace certification take?

Accepted Answer

Atlassian's certification review typically takes 4-8 weeks after submission. We prepare your app to pass first review — our AgilePulse apps achieved Marketplace certification on the first submission.

Question 2

What is the difference between Forge and Connect for Jira apps?

Accepted Answer

Forge is Atlassian's modern, serverless platform with tighter security and better Marketplace visibility. Connect is the older, self-hosted approach. We build on Forge for all new apps and migrate existing Connect apps when it makes sense.

Question 3

How much does a Jira app cost to build?

Accepted Answer

A focused Jira integration or automation takes $8,000-$20,000. A full Forge app built for Marketplace listing typically costs $20,000-$60,000+ depending on feature scope and integration complexity.

Question 4

Can you build for both Cloud and Data Center?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We build for Jira Cloud using Forge and for Data Center when on-premise is required. We scope the right platform based on your customer base.

Question 5

Will our app be listed on the Atlassian Marketplace?

Accepted Answer

If that is your goal, yes. We handle the full lifecycle — development, security review, Marketplace submission, certification, and listing optimization.

Question 6

Can you build private Jira apps for internal use only?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Private Forge apps don't require Marketplace certification and can be deployed directly to your Jira instance. This is the fastest path for internal workflow automation.
