Jira offers extensive customization options that help tailor workflows to your team's needs. Two commonly used features are Validators and Conditions. While they may seem similar, they serve distinct purposes. Let’s explore when to use each and how they can enhance your Jira workflows.

Introduction In this blog, we’ll discuss the roles of Jira Admins and Jira Consultants. Whether you're making hiring decisions or transitioning from one role to the other, this post should provide valuable insights. The Role of a Jira Admin Jira Admins are primarily responsible for customizing and configuring the Jira instance.

Sparxsys is doing good, we have regular work coming in and we are growing our team. We are now more than 10 people in our team and we operate from India and the UK. We are currently hiring a Jira Consultant and developer. Reach out to me on Linkedin.I could have written a long job description in this post but let me try to share the key things.

We have been doing Atlassian Consultation for almost two decades now and we must admit that not all consultations are 100% successful or go as planned. To be honest it is fine.We recently started sharing those Failed Consultations in this playlist.

We make regular videos related to Atlassian Career to help anyone who is interested in building a career in the Atlassian ecosystem. You find direct links to lots of videos below and also follow this link - Atlassian Career Videos.

There are apps like eazyBI which we absolutely love and we recommend it all the time but not everyone wants to install apps for various reasons. We don't necessarily love Excel but..

A very happy new year to all of you. We wish you lot of success in 2023. Last year was really good for us, we achieved a lot and are really happy and content with our achievements. Although Sparxsys was started in India in 2010 but it was our first year of operation in the UK and we did quite well in its first year in a different country.

2022 was a wonderful year for us. We are happy with whatever we achieved this year. At Sparxsys our goal is very simple and clear - "We want to provide the world class Atlassian services to our clients". This means zero compromise on the quality of service we provide. Although we are a small company but our team has best experts and decades of experience. Not only we know when and when not to use Atlassian tools but at the same time we really know how to use these tools, that too in different situations.

We wish you a very Happy Christmas. 2022 has been a wonderful year for us. I hope it was great for you as well. Enjoy time with your family and wish you lot of success for the next year.

As you probably know that there has been an outage on roughly 400 customer sites since April 4th, 20:12 UTC. Sri Viswanath, Atlassian CTO has released a post about this as well. #Atlassian #Outage What he is saying in this post is that they were supposed to delete the legacy Insight app on customer sites where it was installed but due to a faulty script 400 customer sites were deleted by mistake.
