The English session at 2:00 pm CET will be streamed live on YouTube, with regional sessions in Japanese and Russian. Attendees will see live demos of the migration process, hear customer success stories, and learn about deployment options. The event targets administrators, project managers, and team leads evaluating alternatives after Atlassian's Data Center product discontinuation. ## Migration Process The webinar will detail how to transfer projects, users, and data from Jira, Confluence, and Jira Service Management to YouTrack. Experts will demonstrate practical migration steps including data mapping and system configuration. Attendees will learn about handling historical data, user permissions, and workflow transitions. The session includes a live demo showing the complete migration path from Atlassian's ecosystem to YouTrack's environment. ## Cost Benefits YouTrack can reduce ownership costs by up to 80% compared to Jira and Confluence, according to JetBrains. The webinar will explain pricing models including user packs and special offers for migrating teams. Presenters will compare subscription options and deployment choices (cloud vs self-hosted). Financial analysis will show long-term savings from reduced licensing fees and maintenance overhead. ## Regional Support Localized sessions include a Japanese webinar hosted by JetBrains and a Russian session by certified partner Noventiq. Regional experts provide migration support in 9 languages including Kazakh, Uzbek, and Georgian. Noventiq offers post-webinar consultation across Central Asia and Eastern Europe. These sessions address region-specific compliance requirements and implementation best practices. ## Customer Stories Attendees will hear firsthand accounts from organizations that completed the migration. Case studies will highlight challenges overcome during transition and measurable post-migration improvements. Partners like COPS Solutions will share technical implementation experiences. These real-world examples demonstrate how teams adapted workflows and realized productivity gains. ## Expert Panel The webinar features YouTrack's Head of Growth Elena Pishkova and Customer Success Lead Yuriy Litvinenko. Technical insights come from Solution Architect Julia Bernikova and Senior Sales Manager Stephan Weck. Lukas Majerik from COPS Solutions adds partner perspective.
