Actually, I'd avoid Atlassian products in general.
Not because they aren't open source. That's certainly a minus, but the 
elephant in the room is that they are complicated and time-consuming to use.
Plus, I have yet to see a single organisation that is able to set up a 
Jira workflow that is actually appropriate for what people were trying 
to do with it.

I attribute this to the fact that Atlassian, like any commercial 
software vendor, cannot sell to developers but sells to management, and 
this skews its capabilities towards what managers want rather than what 
developers want.
I believe this is actually one of the major points why commercial 
software tends to suck for us developers, and FOSS is much more fun to 
work with :-D
