Atlassian Design

Looking forward to this launch to unifying the brand and products more, and seeing some great UX/UI improvements to JIRA especially! (desktop site)

It's fair to say that a lot of designers have a dislike (or probably a fear!) of going anywhere near tools like Jira or Confluence - while everyone else in a product team will be using them.

But as an organisation it's clear that Atlassian have recognised this, and are making steps in the right direction to create better designed products. Their software is super complex so it will be a difficult task to simplify and redesign the UI across the board, but when they get there I think they might just earn some credibility with designers along the way.

They did a pretty bad job.

Personally, I love changes, but that is a really really bad one...

I'm so curious to wait for the new Jira's design interface

Whoever made it had no idea about user experience; I couldn't even upload pictures to a board; it kept timing out... Clunky and I hate it.... Spent 2 hours of my time trying to make things work but couldn't do anything on it.... Also, branding is really confusing..... Is it Atlassian or Jira??? The branding is as confusing as the interface.... They need some serious UX help before they should go to market
