You need full control over your data, but your team still needs the collaboration features they're used to. Here's what changes when you move to Docsie.
Why Docsie
All the power of a modern documentation platform, running entirely on your infrastructure.
No weeks-long deployment projects. Our automated provisioning handles the heavy lifting, and your team is editing documentation the same day. Your IT team handles the initial setup, then it runs itself—no dedicated administrators needed.
When auditors ask where your documentation lives, you point to your own data center. ITAR, FedRAMP, GDPR, SOC 2—whatever your requirements are, on-premise deployment checks the box. No vendor agreements, no data processing addendums, no explaining cloud architectures to regulators.
Your team gets AI-powered search, automated summaries, and intelligent suggestions—all processing happens on your infrastructure. Sensitive product documentation never leaves your network, but your writers still get the productivity boost they need.
See how teams across regulated industries are migrating off Confluence while improving their documentation.
Defense contractors can't risk ITAR-controlled technical documentation touching cloud servers. Docsie gives engineering teams the collaborative wiki they need while keeping export-controlled data exactly where compliance requires it—on government-approved infrastructure.
Banks and financial institutions face strict requirements about where customer and transaction data can be stored. When your wiki contains architecture diagrams, runbooks, and system documentation mentioning real data, cloud isn't an option.
Healthcare organizations need to document clinical workflows, system integrations, and operational procedures—often referencing patient data standards and system architectures. Docsie keeps PHI-adjacent documentation secure while giving clinical and IT teams the collaboration tools they expect.
Everything your team needs to leave Confluence behind, with none of the cloud security concerns.
Runs on your servers, in your data center, behind your firewall—complete control over every aspect of your documentation environment.
Automated provisioning means you're not spending weeks with consultants—you're documenting the same day.
Import your existing Confluence spaces, pages, attachments, and structure without manual copying and pasting.
Integrate with your existing Active Directory or LDAP—no separate password management or user provisioning.
Intelligent search that understands context and finds what your team needs, processing entirely on your servers.
Every view, edit, and access logged permanently—perfect for compliance audits and security reviews.
Common Questions
Answers to questions from teams who've already made the switch from Confluence Cloud.
Q: How long does it really take to migrate from Confluence?
A: Most teams are fully migrated in 3-5 days. Day one is provisioning Docsie (about 25 minutes), day two is the automated import of your Confluence data, and days 3-5 are testing and user onboarding. You're not running both systems for months—this is a fast switchover.
Q: What happens to our existing Confluence pages and formatting?
A: Our migration tool preserves your page hierarchy, attachments, tables, formatting, and even page history. Your team won't spend weeks reformatting documentation—they'll recognize the structure immediately and start working.
Q: Do we need dedicated staff to run this?
A: No. Once deployed, Docsie is self-managing. Your IT team handles the initial setup and periodic updates, but you don't need a full-time Confluence administrator like you would with Data Center. Normal maintenance happens during your regular patch cycles.
Q: How do we prove to auditors that documentation data never leaves our network?
A: Docsie runs entirely on your infrastructure—there's no 'phone home' to our servers, no telemetry, no cloud backups. You control the network, the storage, and the access. During audits, you show them your network logs proving zero external communication.
Q: Can we integrate with our existing authentication system?
A: Yes. Docsie integrates with Active Directory, LDAP, SAML, and other enterprise identity providers. Your team uses the same credentials they use for everything else—no separate passwords, no additional user management overhead.
