Many wikis and collaboration offerings gain popularity in pockets of an organisation but lack the features necessary for organisation-wide deployment. Confluence was built for use across the entire enterprise and has proven itself in over 8,100 organisations across the globe.

Consider Confluence if you've outgrown your current wiki or need to consolidate multiple wikis spread across your organisation. Our Universal Wiki Converter makes the switch quick and painless.

Keep your private parts private

Security is a major concern for any organisation. Confluence meets the demands of an enterprise environment by keeping your content safe and secure.

  • Secure each space with its own permissions. Users must be granted view access to see a space and edit access to edit pages within the space. Every page can have its own security too, so you can protect information at any level.
  • Protect your organisation's information from disaster with backups. Set up daily automated backups or run them when required. Restoring your Confluence data from a backup is simple.
  • Run it open or closed. You can allow visitors to access part or all of the site without having them sign in. For example, you could create a 'Community' website that is viewable by the general public, but can only be edited by people who sign up and log in.
  • Cluster Confluence to improve performance and provide higher availability within enterprises with large numbers of concurrent users.

I've tried many other options, including SnipSnap, TikiWiki to name a couple, and none of them have all the bits I need. Some come close, but most fall down with either security or user-friendliness. Confluence has both, and it also has Spaces, which happen to fit what I need perfectly. — David Peterson of Randombits

Preferred by geeks, easy for everyone

Many wikis lack the usability needed to gain organisation-wide adoption outside a core audience of technical users. Confluence is designed to give everyone - even novice wiki users - the confidence to become an online publisher.

  • Build attractive documents quickly and easily in the rich-text editor, a Microsoft Word style interface. Or if Office is your preferred authoring tool, you can even edit Confluence pages in Microsoft Word.
  • Edit online without fear. Confluence auto-saves your page as you type so you don't have to worry about losing your work in the event your browser crashes.
  • Edit the same page simultaneously with concurrent editing. If another editor saves the page before you, Confluence will help you resolve conflicts between your changes and theirs.
  • Drag and drop your files right onto the page. Confluence features like drag-and-drop attachments, attachment versioning and deep integration with Microsoft Office make it appealing to users accustomed to a document-centric work environment.

Integrate with enterprise systems

Many freely-available collaboration software packages either lack support for core enterprise systems or require untested add-ons to get there.
Confluence was designed to integrate with enterprise systems from day one - no add-ons required.

  • Integrate with existing user stores such as Active Directory. Confluence supports LDAP so administrators only have to manage one user-base and users can login with their network name and password.
  • Adhere to your organisation's database standard. Confluence supports enterprise-class databases including Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server, DB2 or MySQL.
  • Remotely update content, manage users or administer individual spaces with your applications or scripts through our full web services interfaces (SOAP and XML-RPC). We also have a REST API for reading Confluence content.
  • We're here to help. Every Confluence purchase includes one year of support so we'll be here to help should you encounter any issues or need to ask a simple question.

Outgrown your existing wiki?

If you are already using a wiki, but feel you have reached the limit of its capabilities, you are not alone. Many have already made the switch to Confluence using our free Universal Wiki Converter provided to help smooth the transition.

Confluence provides data importers from the following systems:

  • Mediawiki
  • TWiki
  • Sharepoint
  • DokuWiki
  • MoinMoin
  • Tikiwiki
  • Jspwiki
  • XWiki
  • Trac
  • Mindtouch
  • Socialtext
Switching from MediaWiki to Confluence is Easy

This is the enterprise wiki from Atlassian that is quite frankly the best wiki software available period...Even the actual fork of Twiki called Foswiki which can be described as the best available opensource wiki product, doesn't even come close to Confluence.—nicolinux.org
