Own360 vs Confluence
Confluence Data Center ends in 2029. Keep your wiki self-hosted.
Atlassian stopped selling Data Center to new customers on 30 March 2026, and existing Data Center products become read-only on 28 March 2029, leaving Cloud as the only supported option. OwnWiki keeps your knowledge base on your own infrastructure under a licence you own.
Side by side
| Own360 | Confluence | |
|---|---|---|
| Self-hosting future | Self-hosted by design: on-premise, private cloud or air-gapped. | Server support ended 15 February 2024. Data Center: no new customers after 30 March 2026, no expansions after 30 March 2028, read-only from 28 March 2029 [1][2]. |
| Licensing | Perpetual licence (CapEx), or a managed subscription (OpEx). No per-seat pricing. | Cloud per user per month: Standard listed at $5.78 (about ₹549), Premium at $11.16 (about ₹1,060), Enterprise by quote. List prices were updated from 13 October 2026 [3][4]. |
| Cost after migration | No per-user fees as the team grows. | Atlassian states that the per-user cost of cloud is higher than Data Center [1]. |
| Where your pages live | On your servers, with a full audit trail on every change. | Atlassian Cloud. India data residency is available on Standard and above, but it is not the default, even for organisations based in India [5]. |
| Pages and data together | Pages and inline databases in one workspace, with function-owned spaces and review trails. | Pages and spaces, with Rovo AI search, chat and agents included from Standard up [3]. |
| Migration | OwnETL migrates content; the old system stays read-only for ninety days as a safety net. | Atlassian provides Cloud migration tools. |
When Own360 is the better fit
You chose Data Center to keep knowledge in-house
OwnWiki lets you keep that decision, instead of moving runbooks, designs and SOPs to a vendor cloud by 2029.
Your wiki holds regulated or sensitive content
Architecture records, security runbooks and client documents stay inside your perimeter.
Docs and tracking should live together
Specs carry their tracking databases inline, so the wiki-to-tracker shuffle ends.
When Confluence may still suit you
You are already on Confluence Cloud and happy with Atlassian hosting your content. Jira and Confluence are tightly linked across your teams and you plan to stay in the Atlassian cloud.
