    Reign OpsPlane

    Self-hosted Plane, operated for you.

    Reign Ops deploys and runs a dedicated, single-tenant Plane environment for your planning, delivery work and project knowledge. iTmethods takes the upgrades, monitoring, backup and recovery, access and change work, under your identity and change rules, from the team that has operated engineering platforms for two decades.

    Delivered as a single-tenant dedicated instance, in your own AWS or Azure cloud account or in infrastructure iTmethods operates. Both are available today. Google Cloud is planned for 2027. Air-gapped and sovereign deployment are supported.

    What Reign Ops does

    Your teams plan in Plane. We run it.

    Plane brings projects, work items, cycles, modules, pages and views into one workspace. Reign Ops carries the work of keeping that workspace running, so your engineers spend their time on delivery.

    01Operate
    Deployment, upgrades, monitoring, backup and recovery, access and change for the self-hosted environment.

    The work sits with named iTmethods operators instead of returning to your product backlog.

    02Own the decisions
    The edition, the deployment location, administrative access and change approvals each have a named owner.

    Responsibilities are written down before anything is deployed, so the boundary is a document rather than a discovery.

    03Migrate from Jira
    A staged move with a representative pilot, so you reach cutover knowing what moved and what needs attention.

    Plane’s Import Summary shows what was imported, skipped or errored, and the pilot shows what needs review or rebuilding before rollout.

    04Connect AI tools carefully
    Plane’s MCP server lets approved AI clients work with projects and work items as the authenticated user.

    Check the available tools, authentication method, workspace permissions and permitted changes before enabling a connection.

    Editions

    Which Plane we operate.

    Plane comes in one hosted edition and three self-hosted editions. Reign Ops operates the three self-hosted editions; the edition sets the source model, feature set and update path.

    EditionWho hosts itSource model
    CommunitySelf-hosted, operated by Reign OpsOpen source under AGPL-3.0.
    CommercialSelf-hosted, operated by Reign OpsPlane describes it as closed source.
    AirgappedSelf-hosted, operated by Reign OpsA Commercial Edition built for isolated environments.
    Plane CloudHosted by PlanePlane’s hosted edition. Not operated by Reign Ops.
    Migration

    Move from Jira with a tested path to cutover.

    Inventory the current Jira environment, prepare Plane, run a representative pilot, reconcile the results, then move the remaining projects in controlled waves. Plane provides importer paths for Jira Cloud and Jira Server or Data Center.

    Manual review or rebuild. Plane’s guide treats dashboards, reports, Advanced Roadmaps, Marketplace app data, automation rules, permission schemes and outside integrations as manual-review or rebuild categories. The pilot establishes which items can move, which need rework and what your team must validate before cutover. Atlassian Data Center end of life →
    Operating responsibility

    Written down before anything is deployed.

    Reign Ops holds a SOC 2 Type II attestation. The report, scope and period are available under non-disclosure. The customer’s risk, compliance and procurement experts assess the selected architecture, service scope and supporting evidence against the organization’s requirements.

    Plane edition and deployment target.

    Which self-hosted edition, and whether it runs in your AWS or Azure account or in infrastructure iTmethods operates.

    Deployment and upgrades.

    Installed, kept current and moved through your change process at a time you agree.

    Monitoring, backup and recovery.

    Watched, backed up and recoverable against the service levels written into the scope.

    Access and change approvals.

    Administrative access, change approvals and the customer owners for each.

    FAQ

    Questions buyers ask

    Which edition fits my deployment?
    Community, Commercial and Airgapped are self-hosted editions with different source models, features and update paths. The right choice depends on where the system needs to run and the capabilities your teams require. Plane Cloud is hosted by Plane rather than operated by Reign Ops.
    How does Jira migration work?
    A staged method built around inventory, preparation, a representative pilot, reconciliation and controlled rollout. Plane provides separate importer paths for Jira Cloud and Jira Server or Data Center, with an Import Summary recording imported, skipped and errored items.
    Can Plane connect to AI tools?
    Yes. Plane publishes an MIT-licensed MCP server for compatible clients including Claude, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor and VS Code. The server acts as the authenticated user, with access governed by the selected workspace and Plane roles. Reign Gateway can sit on the model path for the agents you build.
    What would Reign Ops cover?
    Deployment, upgrades, monitoring, backup and recovery, access and change for the self-hosted environment, with the edition, deployment target, customer owners and service levels written down before anything is deployed.
