| Pricing | Not published · free tier: Reported at $0/month with unlimited technicians and unlimited tickets, funded by in-product advertising | 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 | Freemium (advertising-funded free tier) | Subscription (per-seat), with a free tier |
| Best for | Internal IT teams of roughly 1-20 technicians in SMBs, schools, non-profits or small public bodies with no help desk budget, whose needs stop at email intake, a request portal, basic queues and light reporting. | 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 | You have contractual SLA or uptime obligations, need custom reporting, API integration or round-robin routing, require on-premise or in-country data residency, need documented SOC 2/ISO/GDPR compliance, or are running an external customer-facing support desk. | 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.
