Jira on SSL is required to connect with Salesforce with the new Server Connector whereas on Classic it is optional.

Classic requires manual setup by Salesforce admins using Apex classes, triggers, and Salesforce.

The new Server Connector simply uses a Salesforce-managed package.

To setup for new Server Connector, read this documentation: Setting up multiple Jira site integration

In Classic, all Salesforce attachments are either displayed as view-only in the Remote Attachments tab OR pushed to Jira as native attachment.

In Classic, Jira attachment cannot be pushed to Salesforce.

In Classic, login is using only basic authentication.

In the new Server Connector, authentication operations are done through the backend for a seamless user experience.
