“Atlassian makes it possible for developers to build a profitable and successful company by letting them focus on what they do best — coding — while the Atlassian Marketplace helps customers discover your apps. At a certain point, that success requires more investment on the business side,” Vitalii Zurian commented. “Randall and the Appfire team understand the value that our apps provide to Atlassian customers, and they have the go-to-market experience, resource capacity, and technical and operational infrastructure to support our growing customer base. I look forward to continuing to work with the developer community and with Appfire to drive further innovation.”
