Successful cloud migration at Wien Energie
Wien Energie, a leading energy company, was faced with the challenge of modernizing its existing project management and documentation platforms from Jira and Confluence Server. It decided to migrate from server to cloud. The cloud-based solution promised seamless integration of updates and new features to better meet the company's evolving needs, as well as a higher standard of security. Wien Energie implemented the successful cloud migration together with catworkx Austria.
Read Reference"At the beginning of the cloud migration, we assumed that it would be relatively easy. It was only in the process itself that we were surprised by the complexity and how much work is really involved. But the consultants from catworkx gave us great support, so everything went perfectly."
Transfer of Atlassian Tools from Shadow IT to ITIL IT Operations
Company-wide access to ITIL-compliant process design enables a transparent and streamlined approach. The service contract with catworkx also optimized operating costs, internal workload and support, as many services could be outsourced. To this day, catworkx supports thyssenkrupp Marine Systems in operational matters as well as in the implementation and optimization of various processes from a wide range of departments.

Thieme Compliance – On the way to a project organization: Agile project portfolios with Atlassian tools
As a solution provider for all aspects of doctor-patient communication, Thieme Compliance was faced with the challenge of mapping company-wide projects transparently and centrally. With the support of catworkx, Atlassian tools were introduced for demand and project portfolio management. catworkx accompanied the company from the modeling of workflows to the rollout of the new PPM system. This not only reduced the number of tools in use, but also promoted a cultural change towards a project organization.

Diebold Nixdorf – Portfolio management and regular project budget planning/control with Jira
Excel was the project controlling tool used by Diebold Nixdorf until recently, but it was showing increasing weaknesses: “With seven locations, the processes in monthly budget forecasting became less accurate and the quality of the content fluctuated. Both the project managers and the PMOs that evaluate the projects all had to access it at the same time. Excel was not suitable for this,” explains Steffen Lechte, describing the initial situation. They wanted more transparency and control during the forecasting phases so that any potential correction effort could be kept within limits. Based on these points, Lechte specified the requirements for better collaboration across different time zones: mappable real-time status of forecasts, integration of standardized workflows, display of change history, transfer of structures to the following year, and support for multi-user access. Since there was already successful collaboration with catworkx regarding Jira in other areas of the company, it was clear to the IT colleagues that this would now be expanded. After a test implementation with Jira, it quickly became clear how many possibilities this tool offered for mapping both portfolio planning and forecasting.
Read Reference" It was very clearly and transparently described which decisions I have to make and when and what the scope for this is. The catworkx team's good overview was not only very helpful to me in terms of time."

Cost reduction through centralized license management
With more than 9,200 employees and an expected annual turnover of over 1 billion euros in 2023, the adesso Group is one of the largest German IT service providers with outstanding growth prospects. If product licenses are managed decentrally, this can lead to unnecessary double licensing and high costs. As a high-growth company, it was increasingly challenging for adesso to maintain a complete overview of license management for Atlassian products. With the support of catworkx, adesso therefore implemented the “Atlassian- as-a-Service” (SaaS) model, with which all licenses are combined under one license key and managed by the central IT. This not only allows adesso to license according to demand and save on expenses, but also, and above all, to benefit from a fixed price for the contract term. In addition, the model enables the organizational structure to be replicated as needed, allowing the company to grow in a scalable manner.
Read Reference"It was very important to us that it was not only technically, but above all humanly, a good fit – because people do business, not machines. So our positive experiences in the past made it easy for us to rely on the experts at catworkx."
Seamless migration from on-premises to the Atlassian cloud at Oetiker
As a long-standing customer of catworkx, Oetiker approached catworkx in March 2021 with the desire to move its on-premise instances to the Atlassian cloud in order to simplify administrative processes and modernize setup. It was mainly for strategic reasons that Oetiker wanted to rely more on SaaS solutions, because they no longer wanted to administer the tools themselves. The company's previous instances were installed locally on a single server, and internal maintenance took up a lot of resources. Meanwhile, there were performance issues with the “historically grown setup” and updates were needed to get up to date. Furthermore, there was a need for action with regard to the reverse proxy server used, which was no longer being developed by the manufacturer. A redesign of the system landscape was urgently needed. 100 users were needed for Jira Software, 250 for Confluence.
Read Reference"It was the most seamless migration I've ever been a part of. catworkx's support and expertise were top notch and helped us achieve our goal of successfully moving our on-prem environment to the Atlassian Cloud."

Read Reference"There were many constructive suggestions that we were able to implement together with catworkx."
Why Performance Matters
"You can't control anything you can't measure": Slow response times, sluggish processing of requests, and time-outs in a project workflow require rapid optimization of system performance. In order to be able to measure the performance of an Atlassian toolchain, individual investigations must be carried out. Background: Every environment and system usage is unique. When controlling performance values, catworkx relies on the pairing of open-source software and its own internal tools, such as catworkx SPIN (stress app). Behavioral information of a specific system can thus be accurately mapped over a fixed time frame, while at the same time maximizing the stress level of the Atlassian instance.

Read ReferenceIntegrated Project and User Portal (IPUP)
Development departments in large companies often take on a life of their own with regard to the software they use for their application lifecycle management (ALM). This harbors dangers: Especially in these departments, where sensitive data is often involved, transparency and traceability should actually be the top priority. Those responsible must be able to check at any time which users are working on which projects with which tools. A globally active manufacturer of automotive accessories was also faced with this challenge. The long-standing Atlassian partner catworkx developed a tool for this company, with which projects are set up (provisioned) largely automatically, along with the assignment of their participating users: the Integrated Project and User Portal (IPUP).
Read ReferenceCentralized management of IT system problems: catworkx creates a connection between Jira and Statuspage
