License Optimizer for Confluence

Manage your application access in real-time and allow more users to use Confluence without upgrading the license tier.

Are you getting close to your user tier limit but the next tier would be too big? Do your users use Confluence only occasionally and not the whole day?
License Optimizer manipulates the application access in real-time granting access only to the users who need it when it is needed.

Key Features


  • Reduce your costs by providing application access only for the active users

  • Revoke access from inactive users automatically to allow active users to login

  • Real-time access manipulation allows users to use Confluence when needed

  • Set up how many seconds after a user should be considered inactive

  • LDAP support

  • Available for Confluence 7.0 and above

Floating license for Confluence


License Optimizer manipulates the application access in real-time granting access to users only when it is needed. With this application, you will be able to provide Confluence access for more users than your purchased license tier.

 

Free up space automatically


Set up how many seconds after a user should be considered inactive. License Optimizer will revoke application access from inactive users to free up space for active users.

 

Monitor your License usage


License Monitoring provides always up-to-date information about your Jira instance usage and suggests the optional tier based on the data.

 

Test License Optimizer


You can test License Optimizer with this method:

  1. Create a new Confluence Server environment or clone your existing one

  2. Purchase a 10 user License Tier Confluence Server license and add this license to this newly created Confluence

  3. Add some users to the application access in global permissions so there will be only 2-3 free slots remaining.

  4. Install and Set up License Optimizer to work with the remaining 2-3 free slots.

  5. Log with several accounts and check how License Optimizer grants/revokes application access permission.
