Moving Off Confluence Cloud Without Losing Your Sanity

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.

Without Docsie

  • Confluence Data Center costs $27K+ annually and requires a full DevOps team to maintain
  • Open-source wikis feel like a downgrade—your team complains about missing features and clunky editing
  • Compliance auditors flag your cloud wiki every quarter, forcing endless documentation of data flows
  • Migration projects drag on for months while you're still paying for both systems
Recommended

With Docsie

  • Fully deployed on your infrastructure in 25 minutes, with AI features working immediately
  • Same modern editing experience your team knows, plus AI assistance they'll actually use
  • Complete data sovereignty—every byte stays in your environment, making compliance simple
  • Automated migration from Confluence means you're up and running in days, not months

Why Docsie

Enterprise Control Without Enterprise Complexity

All the power of a modern documentation platform, running entirely on your infrastructure.

Operational in Under 30 Minutes

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.

Pass Every Compliance Audit

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.

AI That Stays Behind Your Firewall

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.

Real-World Use Cases

See how teams across regulated industries are migrating off Confluence while improving their documentation.

ITAR-Compliant Documentation Without the Headaches
Defense & Aerospace

ITAR-Compliant Documentation Without the Headaches

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.

  • All technical documentation stays within ITAR-compliant boundaries
  • Engineers collaborate in real-time without workarounds or VPN gymnastics
  • Automated audit trails show exactly who accessed what, when
Meeting Data Residency Requirements Without Compromising Features
Financial Services

Meeting Data Residency Requirements Without Compromising Features

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.

  • Complete data residency control for regulators in any jurisdiction
  • Version control and change tracking that auditors actually understand
  • Role-based access that mirrors your org structure without manual updates
HIPAA-Compliant Knowledge Management
Healthcare & Life Sciences

HIPAA-Compliant Knowledge Management

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.

  • Documentation lives in your HIPAA-compliant environment, period
  • Medical and IT teams collaborate on procedures without security compromises
  • Granular permissions ensure only authorized staff access sensitive documentation

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to questions from teams who've already made the switch from Confluence Cloud.

Getting Started

Most Popular

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.

Security & Compliance

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.
