Hidden Costs Breakdown

1

Atlassian Marketplace app fees: Popular add-ons like Xray Test Management ($10/mo), time tracking, and reporting tools add recurring per-user costs that can double your base subscription

2

Asset management overage charges: Premium includes 50,000 asset objects; Enterprise includes 500,000. Overages cost $0.05 per object per month and can fluctuate unpredictably as your infrastructure grows

3

AI virtual agent overage: Premium includes 1,000 assisted conversations/month free. Additional conversations cost $0.30 each, which adds up quickly for high-volume service desks

4

Statuspage integration: JSM lacks a built-in status page. Atlassian Statuspage costs an additional $29-$109/month depending on plan, which is near-essential for incident communication

5

Standard-to-Premium upgrade pressure: Asset/configuration management, change management, and AI features are locked behind Premium at 2.5x the Standard price. Many teams find they need these features within 6-12 months of adoption

6

Storage overages on Standard: The 250 GB limit on Standard can be exceeded by teams with heavy attachment usage, forcing an upgrade to Premium for unlimited storage
