Why you may need an alternative for Confluence:
Confluence is widely used for internal documentation and team collaboration, but it may not be the right choice for all businesses. Some teams need more flexibility in how they manage content structure, control access, or track changes over time. Others may have strict requirements around data residency, retention, or compliance that are hard to meet within Confluence’s setup. For teams working in regulated industries or handling sensitive information, these limitations can be a concern. In some cases, the interface and feature set may feel too complex for teams that only need basic note-taking or simple knowledge sharing. If your needs are highly specific or minimal, another option may offer a better fit.

Our Methodology
Our objective research is based on market demand signals along with an analysis of our proprietary data, including product information and verified user ratings and reviews, as of February 2026.
To be eligible, products had to meet at least one of the following criteria:
- Be considered a popular Confluence alternative based on our analysis of online search trends where users compare the two systems.
- Emerge as one of the top-mentioned products in Software Advice reviews that reviewers switched to from Confluence, or considered as alternatives when selecting Confluence.
- Show popular demand in a software category shared with Confluence by being among the products that users most commonly inquire about on its Software Advice profile page.
- Rank among one of the highest-rated Confluence competitors.
The selected products also met these requirements:
- Have at least 20 published reviews in the past 2 years as of the analysis period.
- Demonstrate U.S. market presence based on factors such as the availability of U.S.-based reviews and product website research.
In certain cases, depending on the product we’re considering alternatives for, we may expand our selection criteria based on our market insights to ensure we’re providing the best options for buyers.
To offer users a varied selection of vendors to consider, we restrict the number of products from the same software vendor on the list. If several products from the same vendor qualify for inclusion, we select the one most often searched as a Confluence competitor according to online search trends.
