Companies that use Confluence

I noticed that Confluence users span an incredibly wide range of industries, but they share a common thread: they're operational companies with complex, multi-stakeholder workflows. These aren't simple product companies. They're organizations managing intricate processes like healthcare IT implementations, industrial manufacturing, financial services operations, construction projects, and software development. Many are building physical products (automotive components, medical devices, construction materials) or delivering complex services (consulting, emergency response, freight forwarding).

These are predominantly mature, established businesses. The employee counts cluster heavily in the 50-200 range, with many explicitly mentioning decades of experience (Handtmann: "over 20 years," Metal Expert: operating since their founding, LMI Aerospace: 1,500 employees across 11 locations). Very few show recent funding rounds, and most describe stable operations with multiple locations, established client bases, and proven track records. They're past the startup chaos and into the scaling or optimization phase.
