Smarter User Management for Atlassian DC: A Feature-by-Feature Comparison

miniOrange’s Automated User Management & Auto-Deactivation plugin is here to fix that.

Atlassian’s built-in user management capabilities are minimal—designed more for manual, one-by-one administration. For growing teams and large-scale projects, that’s not enough. miniOrange fills this gap with automation, filtering, reporting, and control that scales with your team.
