European Alternatives to Bitbucket

Bitbucket is Atlassian's Git hosting platform, typically used alongside Jira. Atlassian is an Australian-US company; all Bitbucket Cloud data is stored on AWS in the US, creating the same CLOUD Act exposure as other Atlassian products.

Why Switch from Bitbucket?

  • Data stored on AWS (US) — CLOUD Act applies to source code
  • Australian-US company — Five Eyes jurisdiction
  • Atlassian is phasing out Bitbucket in favour of GitHub Actions integrations
  • Free plan severely limited; team plans start at $3/user/month
