Atlassian is expecting a strong finish to the 2021 financial year, after a bumper third quarter was propelled by a rush of customers purchasing its on-premise products ahead of price changes, as well as steady growth from its cloud business.

Revenue for the three months ended March 31 soared 38 per cent to $US569 million ($731 million) from the year-earlier period as its operating income swung to a $US69.5 million profit from a $US19.9 million loss.
