Evaluate a Marketplace app without letting its landing page lead the review.

This condensed guide turns commercial exploration into a reproducible review. Use the demo to judge the workflow, then require evidence for security, deployment, and maintenance.

The review in five passes

Any pass can stop the evaluation. An appealing demo does not repair an unclear need; a useful feature does not repair data that cannot be governed.

Step 1

Problem

Describe the current moment of work without naming the app.

  • 01Who performs the task?
  • 02In which Atlassian host product does it happen?
  • 03Which information or decision is missing?
  • 04What observable indicator proves that the problem is resolved?
Step 2

Demonstration

Use the path that is genuinely exposed and treat every missing state as blocked evidence.

  • 01Entry point, action, and feedback are actually visible.
  • 02The empty state is tested when exposed; otherwise it is recorded as absent.
  • 03Error and insufficient-permission states are tested or requested as evidence.
  • 04Exit or uninstall behavior is observed or recorded as missing proof.
Step 3

Trust

Connect every requested access to an observed capability.

  • 01Permission scopes and a functional justification.
  • 02Data flow, storage, retention, and deletion.
  • 03Subprocessors, transfers, and regions.
  • 04Security support and incident-handling readiness.
Step 4

Deployment effort

Calculate the work around the license and limit the scope to the evaluated app.

  • 01Initial configuration of the selected app.
  • 02Import or migration of that app’s own configuration and data.
  • 03An accountable internal owner.
  • 04Enablement, app support, and a measurement plan.
Step 5

Decision

Write the conditions that would make a yes defensible.

  • 01Selected scenario.
  • 02Evidence received and source links.
  • 03Accepted risks and explicit exclusions.
  • 04Pilot, owner, and next review date.

The best evaluation produces a decision someone else can review.

Copy the template, complete it during the demo, and attach documentation and trust links instead of isolated screenshots.
