Overview
Adaptavist, established in 2005, specializes in maximizing the potential of Atlassian software for organizations across various industries, including finance, healthcare, technology, and government. As a global technology and services company headquartered in London, Adaptavist has become a leading provider of professional services, managed services, and add-on products for Atlassian’s suite of software tools, such as Jira, Confluence, Bitbucket, and Trello.
The company achieved several distinctions within the Atlassian ecosystem, including being the first Atlassian Platinum Solution Partner and obtaining Enterprise Partner status. Adaptavist’s commitment to delivering best-in-class services, support, and solutions for Atlassian customers is further demonstrated through collaborations with other Atlassian Solution Partners.
In 2014, Adaptavist launched ScriptRunner, a popular app within the Atlassian Marketplace that allows users to customize, automate, and extend Atlassian tools’ functionality through scripts. The success of ScriptRunner led to the development of other innovative products, such as Test Management for Jira (TM4J), the highest-rated test management solution within the Atlassian Marketplace.
Adaptavist’s growth was fueled by strategic funding rounds and acquisitions. In 2016, the company raised £3.5 million in a Series A funding round led by BGF Ventures, followed by a £7.5 million Series B funding round in 2018, led by Summit Partners. These investments facilitated Adaptavist’s global expansion, with offices in the UK, US, Canada, and Spain, and the enhancement of its product portfolio.
Notable acquisitions include the 2016 purchase of leading Atlassian consultancy firm Clearvision, the 2018 acquisition of Kanoah, the Brazil-based company behind Test Management for Jira (TM4J), and the 2020 acquisition of the assets of Project Configurator for Jira from Spain-based Awnaba Software. These acquisitions broadened Adaptavist’s expertise, expanded its product offerings, and strengthened its commitment to streamlining Atlassian administration processes.
Adaptavist’s core values and culture focus on fostering a collaborative and innovative work environment, attracting top talent within the Atlassian ecosystem. The company’s emphasis on customer success has enabled it to build long-term relationships across diverse industries and become a trusted partner for organizations seeking to optimize their Atlassian investments.
As an active participant in the Atlassian community, Adaptavist regularly engages in events like the Atlassian Summit, Team Tour, and regional gatherings. The company’s industry awards and recognitions include multiple Atlassian Partner of the Year Awards and the Queen’s Award for Enterprise in International Trade.
With its commitment to customer success, innovation, and collaboration, Adaptavist aims to maintain its leadership position in the Atlassian marketplace by enhancing its product portfolio, expanding its global reach, and delivering exceptional value to clients.
