It's 400 clients, not all their user base. They can handle the lost income from a small slice of their customers for one month.
And if they can't sustain that, then it's even more imperative that those customers migrate away.
- enra 4y agoAtlassian had almost a billion in free cashflow last year and over a billion in cash. I think they should cover the whole year for these customers.

- brongondwana 4y agoFastmail gave 1 month free service to about 2/3 of our customers after a major disk failure that led to about a week of downtime for them as we recovered from backups in... 2005ish I think. Long time ago - it was a pretty major hit and the wave in income is still visible all these years later as a lean month where there's no renewals from that batch! Definitely the right thing to do though.
