We're in the same boat. I brought Confluence into our org almost a decade ago — it was the best collaborative wiki tool at the time. Over time the price has increased while the quality of the tool has not kept pace with other options. This seems to be the trend as software companies grow into large "enterprise" providers.
Looking at our Confluence usage over the years, I noticed that we use it primarily as a knowledgebase/documentation tool and less for collaboration. With our on-prem license expiring, we are migrating to a dedicated knowledgebase for our FAQ and frequently changing content and switching to a Markdown tool + Git for our more formal documentation.
