Dual licensing means SU for JIRA can be: Dual licensing does not mean SU Vendor licenses are compatible with marketplace, can be installed in marketplace or otherwise used anywhere except the Vendor license screen, as they are by definition Vendor licenses. For users wanting to switch to Marketplace licensing, when renewing maintenance, a 50% discount for their specific license tier will be given.

What is SU?
| Excerpt |
