Two people are carrying a TV during a move.

Atlassian no longer offers server licenses for Confluence since February 2021 and support for all server products was discontinued at the beginning of 2024. Additionally Atlassian has announced that it will completely discontinue its Data Center products, including Confluence Data Center, by March 2029. Users now only have access to the cloud solution. However, the cloud does not meet the necessary data protection requirements of many companies and organizations. BlueSpice is the solution.

Software, service and support straight from the manufacturer

With BlueSpice you get reliable software at an unbeatable price-performance ratio directly from the developer. Frequent software updates and personal expert support from the manufacturer and certified partners guarantee maximum performance.

Semantic MediaWiki - for more power

BlueSpice enables the collection of structured data on wiki pages. It can store important information in a central location and display it in different parts of the wiki. This increases the efficiency and effectiveness of your knowledge management. Ideal to obtain ISO certifications.

Open source prevents vendor lock-in
