Improve team communication
Dropbox Paper has limited collaboration capabilities
Confluence is collaboration software that gives every team a voice. Get instant feedback with comments and activity feeds. Locate important documents quickly via home, and more.
- Co-editing in real-time and @ mentions keep teams in sync
- Inline comments and emoji reactions move conversations forward
- Blogs create a company culture of sharing and personal connection
Confluence has enabled anyone in the company equal opportunity to participate, ask questions, and use their voice towards building a company our employees’ grandkids can be proud of.

Easily scale project planning
Action items in Dropbox Paper aren’t sufficient tracking tools
Confluence integrates with all the tools your team already uses for a seamless end-to-end workflow, from planning through execution.
- With smart links, easily create, edit, and view work across Atlassian and third-party products, reducing the need to context switch
- Link Jira epics and Trello cards to Confluence pages to easily set, track, and achieve project goals
- Turn ideas into deliverables with Confluence whiteboards
Everyone can see how an idea flows from strategy to execution.

Bring your work to life
In Dropbox Paper, information gets siloed and stale
Confluence’s open Space structure lets knowledge flow across the organization and provides business continuity. With Spaces you’ll find documentation quickly.
- Content is open by default with tools to control permissions and allow guest access
- Easily find what you need with advanced search, labels, and an intuitive content hierarchy
- Home pages organize important company information for all to access at a glance
People are practicing more knowledge-sharing than ever before, resulting in more transparency and efficiency.
