Great software is built with a manifesto, an iterative process, and places customers at the highest priority. Why should the design and build of a workspace be any different? At Atlassian, we've been focussing heavily on the design of our workspaces to create flexible, engaging, delightful, and yes productive places for our teams to work in. After all, you can't take creative people, stick them in a sterile, uninspiring environment, and expect them to achieve the best work of their lives. It's about a lot more than foosball tables, beanbag chairs, and whiteboards. We think what we've learned can be applied anywhere from a freelancer's home office to entire office buildings. As our organisation has evolved from its engineering roots to incorporate a large design team, so have the needs of our workspace to help us work together as teams. Hear Alastair Simpson and Robyn Dunn talk about how the Workplace Experience team at Atlassian partnered with their own internal customers to build workspaces in an agile way that is reflective of our modern workforce. Applying design thinking and user experience principles, they have successfully shaped creative workspaces that have scaled with the changing needs of their teams. Come and hear what they've learned (and some hilarious mistakes they've made along the way) about the benefits of creating better workplace environments through thoughtful design to help teams become more productive.

Think agile is just for software shops? Think again. NetApp will show you how they helped a digital marketing department at a Fortune 500 company move from waterfall to agile – with Atlassian tools, of course. The result? The department pulled off a complete overhaul of their website in just seven weeks (a project that was originally forecasted at 3-6 months)! Jim and Samuel will share how they built a case for agile, and how the transition provided a more efficient workflow for the rank n' file while giving management more visibility in to projects.

In late 2015, we set up Atlassian Atlab: a low-budget customer research space that tightly integrates into the Agile sprint process. What began as an experiment quickly became an indispensable part of our company’s design process. Atlab is now international, run in all of our offices, gathering input from about 200 customers every month. In this talk, we will teach you why agile research is a crucial part of building great customer experiences, how to create stakeholder buy-in for your efforts, best practices for conducting research, and what to do with your findings. We will also teach you how to set up your very own Atlab. Warning: it’s very cheap, and easier than you may expect!

There's a thing called "time to value": how long it takes a team to uncover and realize value from a product. Atlassian learned this the hard way, discovering that more than half of new customers tried its products for less than 30 minutes – far too short a time to fully unlock their value. We approached and solved this problem using data-informed design – a combination of growth hacking, user research, data analytics, and A/B testing at scale – to dramatically increase customer engagement with our products. Come hear lead designer Alastair Simpson describe the variety of approaches we started with and how we learned which ones to pursue and which ones to discard. You'll learn how to design and centralise improved onboarding experiences that can be spread across all your products.

IT support teams have a unique perspective on the impact software has on users. They speak to users day in and day out, listening to their feedback and solving their issues. This amounts to a wealth of knowledge that has the power to fix or improve products, reduce future customer requests, and improve customer satisfaction. But is this feedback actually making its way back to product development? And are software teams collaborating effectively with tech support ahead of releases? Discover how Atlassian tech support teams prepared ahead of Atlassian’s largest release in its history, splitting JIRA into three products. We will cover how we: Got over 100,000 users proactively preparing for the release of JIRA 7.0 Trained and prepared our global support team of 100+ staff Worked with product teams to ship highly supportable products Used Atlassian tools to identify and fix post-release problems quickly Products covered: JIRA Service Desk, Confluence, HipChat

People love the freedom and control that comes with hosting an add-on in the cloud, but financially speaking, that freedom doesn't come for free. You'll end up paying for your servers whether they serve requests or not, and of course, someone is needed to monitor and upgrade these servers. In this talk, we will cover best practices on how to get a simple and inexpensive cloud add-on going for Hipchat, Bitbucket, Confluence and JIRA without all the overhead of running your own servers. We'll cover serverless technologies like AWS Lambda, static frontends, and how you can use JIRA and Confluence to host your add-on data.

The digital marketing organization at VMware recently transformed the way it does business by migrating to a new tracking tool for all incoming requests. The team is responsible for all of VMWare.com, which is available in 13 languages, 40 countries, and produces over 20K unique pageviews in addition to other microsites. These sites support over 6 million unique monthly visitors worldwide, so it was no small task to make this change. The team chose JIRA Service Desk Cloud with Service Desk to fill the need. Digital Marketing supports the entire marketing organization of 600 people. By providing a simple self-serve submission method, automatic routing, and clear channels of communication the team was able to increase their capacity by 450% (from 100 to 900 monthly requests) and decrease their SLAs by 58% (shaving off 4 days). Both huge wins! Learn how spending less time managing requests helped us focus more on marketing personalization, dynamic content, and campaigns that directly impact the sales pipeline.

“Quality at Speed” is Atlassian’s approach to QA, and we are constantly evolving what that means and how it translates to actual dev team processes. Our developers can confidently take on testing activities, while our QA Engineers tackle larger, harder, and bolder challenges. Teams can ship better features, faster, and reach ambitious quality improvement goals. We'll talk about how our team has embraced this mindset, how this changes our role in dev teams, and the results we want to achieve. We'll cover the different ways that quality can be defined, the importance of fast deployments, and how we work with teams like DevOps, Growth and Customer Insights to help our dev teams and ultimately benefit our users.

If there is one commonality between all the fast growth company success stories like Airbnb, Uber, or HubSpot, it's that they're all crazy about measuring and tracking their data and numbers. In order to grow fast, you have to know where your growth comes from and where you lose. However, there's a second part of the equation that is equally important, yet less discussed and that is the qualitative side to growth. Companies also need to be able to understand the why, why they're growing (or not), and that answer is not always found in data. In this talk, I will describe both the quantitative and qualitative ways you can uncover growth opportunities for your business through experimentation. Experimentation can help you build and validate your product's roadmap and ensure you're focusing your resources on what will bring growth. Products covered: JIRA Software, Bitbucket, Confluence

The process of defining a roadmap is arguably one of the most difficult but important things a product manager has to do. Far too often roadmaps are built without the complete picture in mind, without the right timing, in silos, or are misdirected. How then can we ensure we’re doing it right? Is there really such a thing as an agile roadmap? This talk will draw from lessons learnt building product to provide practical tips and techniques enabling you to understand roadmap inputs, plan with different perspectives in mind, optimise for learning, communicate and set roadmap goals as well as find agility when the landscape around you changes.

Development teams and sale/marketing teams aren't always BFFs. Too often, there is a master-slave relationship: either marketing dictates what the product team builds based solely on what is "sellable" with little consideration to timelines or what non-customer-facing work needs to be done, or the product team does a bunch of random work with little consideration for creating a strong marketing "story". But it doesn't have to be this way. In the DevOps spirit of cross-team collaboration, why not recruit sales and marketing as your newest allies in the fight against workplace silos? This talk will cover practical, battle-tested ways to work together towards a higher-quality and more marketable piece of software. I'll share examples of how product teams at Atlassian do it – drawing both from personal experience, and the experience of my fellow marketers. From semi-obvious things like information radiators, to deeper collaborations in roadmapping and release planning, there's a lot more you can do than just invite the sales team to your stand-ups.

The words we choose have the power to include or alienate our users. The reality is that for many, English is spoken as a second language. And unless you're going to localize your product for those major non-English speaking markets, you'll need to thoughtfully create content that is accessible to a larger audience. But how do we create products that maintain a sense of personality without isolating a wide audience of non-native speakers? Join Atlassian Content Designer, Roana Bilia, as she walks you through why thoughtful, inclusive content, is key to creating well-designed user experiences. You'll walk away with foundational principles for good UX copy when optimizing your product UI, a few quick wins that you as creators and developers can incorporate into your next products, as well as a set of mistakes to avoid that companies—including Atlassian—have made, which prioritized native speakers but isolated non-native speakers.

With more memory available, system performance of three Dell devices increased, which can translate to a better user experience Conclusion When your system has plenty of RAM to meet your needs, you can efficiently access the applications and data you need to finish projects and to-do lists without sacrificing time and focus. Our test results show that with more memory available, three Dell PCs delivered better performance and took less time to complete the Procyon Office Productivity benchmark. These advantages translate to users being able to complete workflows more quickly and multitask more easily. Whether you need the mobility of the Latitude 5440, the creative capabilities of the Precision 3470, or the high performance of the OptiPlex Tower Plus 7010, configuring your system with more RAM can help keep processes running smoothly, enabling you to do more without compromising performance.
