KanBo On-Premises is the Jira Alternative Large Organizations Are Searching For

There is an overwhelming majority of organizations who relied on Jira to serve their customers.

Migrating to a cloud-based solution is a non-starter for them because of internal and external regulations and compliance concerns. These concerns have now turned into serious discussions on a multitude of platforms including social media platforms, forums, and groups as organizations now search for a financially and functionally viable alternative to Atlassian product.

What is the reason for these discussions?

In an unfortunate development on the 2nd of February, Atlassian announced that it will be discontinuing support for all of its server products including Jira. What this means for many organizations is that technical support and bug fixes will no longer be available for their server products leaving them vulnerable especially from the security perspective.

Fortunately, there is good news. Organizations who are now looking for a Jira alternative can rely on KanBo on-premises software that offers a feature-rich, secure, and reliable solution especially designed and created for large organizations who don’t have the option to move their apps and data to a cloud-based infrastructure.
