As of October 10, 2026. Jira is billed per user. On the review date, the Jira pricing page showed no legible amounts apart from the plan names; we therefore list plans, user limits, storage and support per Atlassian's plan overview instead of dollar prices. Current prices are at atlassian.com/software/jira/pricing. Peak prices are net reference prices in euros; billing interval, term and included members are set by the quote. Feature details are based on the providers' product and plan pages.

Honest assessment
Which tool fits for which work?
Peak One fits if
- sales, service, and management want to see customers and numbers in one place
- teams without sprints want simpler planning of tasks and projects
- you don't want to rebuild customer data in issue types
- hosting in Frankfurt matters to you
Jira is a better fit if
- your development team works with Scrum, sprints, and backlog
- releases, burndown, and velocity reports are part of your daily routine
- code in Bitbucket or GitHub should be connected to issues
- you use apps from the Atlassian Marketplace or Confluence
By team type
Our assessment for each team.
| Team | More Peak One | More Jira |
|---|---|---|
| Software development | Not meant as a replacement | Sprints, backlog, releases, and code integration |
| Sales and customer service | CRM and helpdesk with history | When bug reports go straight into the development backlog |
| Management | Work, customers, and cash flow in one overview | Development progress through roadmaps |
| Marketing and operations | Board and Day without sprint logic | When planning happens closely with development on the same boards |
| Software company as a whole | Peak One for customers, numbers, and teams outside development | Jira for the development team, both side by side |
