Frequently Asked Questions
How much does Confluence cost?
Confluence offers a free plan for up to 10 users. Paid tiers start at roughly $5.75 per user/month for Standard and about $11 per user/month for Premium, billed monthly. Pricing depends on the size of your team and whether you choose cloud or self-hosted options.
Is Confluence good for non-technical teams?
Yes, it's used by marketing, HR, and operations teams for intranets, meeting notes, and process documentation. The editor is easy to learn, and templates simplify common tasks like project plans and knowledge bases.
Does Confluence work without Jira?
Yes, Confluence works fine as a standalone documentation tool. However, many teams pair it with Jira because the deep integration lets you embed live Jira issues, filters, and roadmaps directly into pages.
Can multiple people edit a page at the same time?
Yes, Confluence supports real-time collaborative editing, similar to Google Docs. You can see others' cursors and changes as they type, and comments can be added inline.
Is Confluence easy to migrate away from?
Migrating out can be painful. Data is locked into Confluence's page hierarchy and formats, and while you can export to PDF or HTML, recreating large spaces in another tool often requires manual work or third-party migration tools.
What are the limitations of the free plan?
The free plan is limited to 10 users and includes 2 GB of storage. You lose several admin controls, advanced permissions, and automation features, which are only available in paid plans.
