## Why teams choose FeatureOS over Confluence

- **Complete product feedback platform**: Confluence is a wiki. FeatureOS combines a knowledge base with feedback boards, roadmaps, changelog, and surveys. One tool instead of many.
- **Customer-facing by default**: FeatureOS knowledge base is designed for your customers. Confluence is primarily an internal team wiki.
- **Feedback collection built in**: Collect feature requests, run surveys, and let customers vote. Confluence has no feedback or voting capabilities.
- **No Atlassian ecosystem lock-in**: Confluence works best with Jira, Trello, and other Atlassian tools. FeatureOS integrates with Jira, Linear, GitHub, and more.

## Where Confluence shines

- **Enterprise-grade team wiki**: Confluence is a mature, battle-tested wiki with spaces, labels, templates, and granular permissions for large organizations.
- **Deep Atlassian integration**: Seamless integration with Jira, Bitbucket, Trello, and hundreds of Atlassian Marketplace apps.

## Choose Confluence if you...

- You need a comprehensive internal team wiki
- You are already invested in the Atlassian ecosystem
- You need complex documentation with spaces, labels, and permissions
- Your primary need is internal knowledge management

## Choose FeatureOS if you...

- You want a customer-facing knowledge base alongside feedback tools
- You need feedback boards, roadmaps, and changelog in one platform
- You want to collect and prioritize customer feature requests
- You prefer a focused tool over enterprise wiki complexity

## Migration

Not replacing Confluence, but supplementing it. FeatureOS adds the customer-facing feedback layer that Confluence lacks. Keep your internal wiki while giving customers a place to submit ideas and vote on features.
