A self-hosted alternative to Jira Cloud
Your data, your region, your pricing.
Windshift runs on infrastructure you choose. That gives you control over data location, upgrades, and connected AI services, but it also makes your organization responsible for operating the platform.
What changes when you self-host
- You choose where the data lives and which external services the platform can reach
- Predictable cost, no per-seat math as the team grows or shrinks
- Windshift does not meter Assets, automation, or AI usage
- The open-source edition includes the complete current feature set
- Your content is never used to train AI models
You choose the boundaries
Your organization chooses the infrastructure, data location, network boundary, identity provider, database, release timing, and external services Windshift may reach. There is no separate Windshift-hosted cloud offering and no vendor-controlled upgrade window.
You also run the service
Self-hosting transfers responsibility as well as control. Plan HTTPS, backups, monitoring, secrets, capacity, and release testing. Try Windshift alongside Jira with a representative import before committing a production team.
Your teams can keep the Jira concepts they know
Windshift uses projects, work items, boards, backlogs, fields, statuses, workflows, sprints, and milestones. The migration is still a platform change, but it does not require inventing a new vocabulary for planning and delivery.
