Confluence FAQ
Common questions about Confluence, answered from independent, dated evidence.
What is Confluence?
Confluence is a cloud platform where teams collaboratively create and maintain documentation, knowledge bases, and shared content. It provides AI-powered features for automating tasks, searching information, and summarizing content to help teams work more efficiently together. It is indexed under Knowledge Base Software.
Is Confluence free?
Confluence offers a free tier, so you can start without paying. Paid plans start at $5.42 per user per month. Prices are published openly on the vendor's own pricing page. Pricing changes often, so verify at source before relying on it.
What platforms does Confluence support?
We have confirmed browser-based access to Confluence. That is the extent of what we could verify from public sources, so it may well offer desktop or mobile clients we have not indexed.
Can Confluence be self-hosted?
We have only confirmed a cloud / SaaS deployment for Confluence, so it appears to be vendor-hosted. If a self-hosted option exists we have not found it documented publicly.
What does Confluence integrate with?
We have confirmed 7 integrations for Confluence, including Slack, Jira, Trello, Microsoft Teams, Bitbucket, Figma and Loom. This is what we could verify from public sources, so the vendor may support others we have not indexed.
What security certifications does Confluence have?
We have independently confirmed GDPR for Confluence. Certifications we do not list are ones we have not been able to verify from public sources, which is not the same as Confluence not holding them. Always confirm compliance directly before you rely on it.

The vioscaleAI score: one lens on the evidence
Not user reviews and not a paid placement: a confidence-weighted blend of the independent signals below (adoption, activity, security posture, and more), which you can sort and re-weight yourself. Vendors can correct their listing but can never move their rank, and stars are weighted low as a vanity metric. It is one way to read the evidence for Confluence, not the verdict.
