Well, that´s difficult now. Until the end of 2020, using a self-hosted server, have one of your IT-Admins set it up, costs $10 a year for the 10-Author license.
Nowadays? Don´t use it. The price of the on-premises data center version is too expensive.
View full review »To my knowledge, Atlassian Confluence had a pricing approach which is a commercial open-source solution, so that if you are a company, you had to pay an amount. This fee was not huge compared to other traditional solutions, and it was free for personal use or if you were an individual. I'm unsure if Atlassian is implementing the same pricing approach for Atlassian Confluence nowadays.
View full review »I find the solution to be expensive. We pay $350 a month to use the solution.

I can't speak to the exact cost of the solution.
View full review »Confluence offers monthly subscriptions, but if you go through a value-added reseller, you can opt for annual payments. Additionally, if you add applications from their App Store, you pay for all the total users of that license instead of just those who need it.
View full review »The product is neither cheap nor expensive, meaning its price falls somewhere in the mid-range zone. I am not sure about the price of the product, but I know that the pricing-related information is available to the public on Atlassian's official website.

This is a very expensive solution.
View full review »There are some cases where you can go on Confluence as a public site without a license, but you will not have all of the features. You can also have a Confluence site that does not require a license just to read the articles.
When you have Jira Service Management attached to Confluence, then you can go through the portal of Jira Service Management and read the Confluence articles without the license. This is good because when you are in an ITSM environment, you have many customers, and you do not want them to have to pay just to read articles.
Regarding the use of the full features of Confluence, there is a license cost, and it depends on how many users you want.

The pricing depends on traffic, like how much input and output is happening and how many messages you're handling. For example, you have a bundle package that has a limit. If you go beyond that, there's a different price attached to it, but if you are within that limit, it's a fixed price.
There is a license needed to use Atlassian Confluence.
View full review »The pricing is good. In my opinion, there are no better alternatives.
View full review »When we started using Confluence, it was more convenient for us, but later, it became more expensive. Unfortunately, the data center version is expensive for us. So, it could be a bit cheaper.

I don't have an idea about pricing. But I can say that I think it's a good tool for requirement gathering, where you can create backlogs and store or document the data.

When it comes to affordability, I give it an eight out of ten. It's reasonably priced since many people are using it.
View full review »I don't handle the licensing aspects of the product. I'm unsure as to the exact costs. It's my understanding, however, that it is an expensive product. On a scale from one to five, where one is cheap and five is expensive, I'd rate it at a three and a half.

I rate the price an eight out of ten, with ten being a good price and one being a high price. Pricing is not a problem, and you might have other products with lower rates. For bigger companies, price is not a problem because there is always a budget, and the clients fund it. However, if the price gets cheaper, it will be better for users.

View full review »Confluence used to be really affordable but they've been increasing their prices. It's not super expensive but more expensive than it used to be. We pay an annual licensing fee which includes some essential plugins.
I believe we have the Enterprise license with Confluence.

My understanding is that the pricing is competitive. I'm not directly involved in the pricing and how it was done. That said, the fact that we have been using it for the last 15 years makes me assume it would be fine for our pocket and reasonably priced. I'd rate the pricing at a three out of five in terms of value for money.
Slowly release to users and add subscriptions. Keep on top of subscribers and remove idle/inactive users.

The Confluence pricing is good. The only challenge we have experienced is with Jira and the add ons we use that need to be paid for separately.

Licensing is not very expensive. The issue is that engagement with an external party or stakeholder requires the purchase of an additional license. It's the same issue if we have a consultant coming on board and is a pain point for us.
View full review »Atlassian is dirt cheap when it comes to enterprise software. I would suggest limiting the number of plugins (a.k.a., add-ons), as they are an extra cost and many times you're dealing with third-party vendors.
At the very least, use the ones that say "Atlassian Verified" and "Supported".

View full review »My advise to Atlassian is to offer a less steep model and also offer “read-only access” for non-paying users. We currently are looking for a second product to use in a situation where we need to offer access to 40-50 read-only customers.

Pricing and licensing are also straightforward. Keep an eye on plugins and additions that should be balanced with the benefits and usage patterns they provide.

I don't know what the licensing costs for the solution are at this time.
View full review »Make use of the evaluation option if you are unsure. Another option is to start small and test whether Confluence is for you.
A 10-user license is only $10. Be aware of the costs if you plan on rolling it out to your organization, as it does start to add up.
Try to do license changes on your anniversary month, as there is no pro-rata benefit.
View full review »Confluence is convenient and cheaper but not so professional. FrameMaker is for documentation departments in a large company and Confluence is for small teams or companies.
View full review »Licensing is in blocks of seats, so you need to decide what the maximum number of users might be before pricing it out. There is the option of anonymous users, which, while a security issue, does reduce the licensing cost.

- It's easy to set up, as it gives a quick guide for the same process.
- Costing and pricing may vary depending on usage.
You need to buy a full license for your entire organization, even though you only need a plugin for two people.

The problem with the pricing model is not so much the price for the Atlassian basic software itself; the issues I have with the pricing are in respect to the add-ons. The problem with add-on pricing is that it typically is always calculated based on the amount of basic Confluence or Jira licenses. Since some of the add-ons will only get used by a very limited number of users, having to pay for the full implementation (for all the people using Confluence or Jira), seems like an unfair pricing model. It also prohibits the usage of certain add-ons, too. Certain add-ons from a functionality-perspective are much more exclusive to only a few users. That pricing model should be reviewed and potentially edited or amended to make it more flexible.

Atlassian is trying to push the license for their online version, but our customers are not ready for that yet. Its licensing is also quite highly-priced.
