| Pricing | USD $170/month (billed $2,040 annually) — Premium · free tier: Free plan (not a trial): knowledge base on a custom domain, search, versioning, unlimited viewers, 25,000 AI credits, no credit card, no expiry | Standard $5.16 per user (G2 block labelled "Pricing provided by Confluence"; billing period and currency not verified) · free tier: Free plan available; G2's vendor-supplied block lists it at 10 users |
| Pricing model | Subscription with credit-based AI usage plus one-time credit packs | Subscription (per-seat), with a free tier |
| Best for | Budget-conscious documentation teams, multilingual product doc teams, and agencies or ERP/SaaS implementation partners with recorded training or legacy PDFs to convert — especially those who can exploit the free tier, one-time credit packs, or non-profit/academic pricing. | Organisations already running Jira that have a dedicated admin or documentation owner to enforce space naming, hierarchy and permission conventions, and that need governed, versioned, permissioned internal documentation — including regulated or large enterprises wanting self-hosted Data Center deployment. |
| Avoid if | Your documentation workflow lives inside Jira, GitHub or Slack; you need formal approval, sign-off or document-locking for regulated/QMS use; you need a mobile app, SSO on a modest budget, or current high-volume peer evidence before signing. | You are a small team with no dedicated admin, your primary requirement is fast forgiving search across a large corpus, you are Microsoft-centric, you want a lightweight minimal writing surface, or you are budgeting on headline seat price without modelling marketplace app spend. |

A higher TOP SCORE means more of the evidence favours that platform on this methodology — it is not a recommendation, and it does not account for your specific requirements. Advertisers are never declared the winner of a comparison.
