Notion vs Confluence for a team wiki: which to keep, and what it costs
For teams paying for Notion and Confluence at once, or choosing one: how the per-seat prices compare and when to consolidate your wiki.
Typical savings: a team paying for both Notion Plus ($10 per seat/month billed yearly) and Confluence Standard ($5.78 per user/month billed monthly, at Atlassian's 300-user tier) can consolidate. Dropping Confluence saves about $5.78 per user/month, and dropping Notion saves $10 per seat/month. At the higher tiers, Notion Business is $20 per seat/month billed yearly and Confluence Premium is $11.16 per user/month billed monthly.
How the plans line up
| Notion | Confluence | |
|---|---|---|
| Free | Free | Free |
| Entry paid | Plus, $10/seat billed yearly ($12 monthly) | Standard, $5.78/user billed monthly |
| Mid tier | Business, $20/seat billed yearly ($24 monthly) | Premium, $11.16/user billed monthly |
| Top | Enterprise, contact sales | Enterprise, contact sales |
Confluence's per-user prices vary with how many users you have. The catalog lists Atlassian's monthly-billing price at the 300-user tier from its US pricing page; the annual price isn't stated there, so confirm your own quote for your team size. See the Notion vs Confluence comparison, and the Notion and Confluence pages for sources and dates.
Or use the suite you already pay for
If you already pay for Google Workspace or Microsoft 365, the company wiki workflow shows how to run a simple wiki there for $0 extra. It suits small teams with a modest amount of documentation.
When to keep paying
Keep Confluence if you live in Jira and need its linking, permissions and space structure. Keep Notion if teams use its databases and project views, not just pages. If both are in daily use by different teams, start by removing inactive seats from each.
