How VR Payment Reduces Costs and Scales Easily with the Atlassian Cloud
As a long-time user of the on-premise versions of Jira and Confluence, VR Payment successfully migrated to Atlassian Cloud with Seibert Solutions’ support.
“No matter which project — it always worked smoothly.”

Quick Overview
VR Payment
Before Atlassian Server products reached end of life, VR Payment had to decide how to continue operating their Jira and Confluence systems.
After a comprehensive analysis, they chose to migrate to Atlassian Cloud. Seibert Solutions guided them through the migration preparation, testing, and execution.
Today, the teams use a scalable cloud platform that meets compliance requirements and can be extended easily with new functionality.

VR Payment, Data Protection, and Cloud — Does It Work?
Companies have individual needs and varying requirements for the software systems they use. Before migrating, it must be verified that those requirements can be met in the Cloud. For VR Payment, data protection was particularly important — unsurprising, given that the payment processor operates in the banking industry and must satisfy strict regulatory requirements.
Data Protection
All relevant data protection requirements are met.
Data Residency
All data is stored within Europe, per VR Payment’s requirements.
Compliance
Atlassian Cloud meets the BaFin requirements relevant to VR Payment.
More Than Just a Move to the Cloud
Consulting and structured execution at VR Payment
