Formulating  
hypotheses

For each experiment, we would create alternates that would be tested through Optimizely. With each test, we would take the winners and implement them into production.

Through this process we would test for elements such as copy, location, interaction, and color. Furthermore, each test would isolate for a minimum of variation in order to get clear results.

Nurturing 

user activity

Once a user has logged in, driving them to perform different activities was achieved with a “super flag” that would appear in the bottom right. So we designed several flags to appear in different contexts.

Creating a 

community profile

Profiles are places for the expertise of the community to really shine. So we designed a profile that contained only the most important data types like industry, accepted solutions, and recent activity.

An integral part

of the ecosystem

Without a doubt the Community Team succeeded in increasing the monthly active users and we overshot our original goal by a significant margin. This has helped contribute to incredible amounts of growth for Atlassian and Atlassian products since these numbers are directly correlated to customer satisfaction and user retention
