- Atlassian
Many companies hesitate to invest in Confluence theming because of common misconceptions about cost, complexity and necessity. These misunderstandings often prevent businesses from unlocking the full potential of their intranet. Let's break down these myths and reveal the truth behind Confluence theming.
Misconception #1: Confluence theming is expensive
One of the biggest myths is that Confluence theming requires a massive budget. While some assume only large enterprises can afford a custom theme, Brew Digital offers tiered pricing to accommodate businesses of all sizes.
Flexible pricing: Whether you're a start-up or a multinational company, there's a solution that fits your budget.
High ROI: By improving efficiency, reducing support costs and increasing adoption, theming pays for itself over time.
Scalable solutions: You don't need to overhaul everything at once—start with small improvements and scale as needed.
Misconception #2: Theming requires too much effort from our team
Many companies believe that implementing a custom theme will take up too much internal time and resources. The reality? Brew Digital does all the heavy lifting.
Minimal client involvement: Aside from initial branding inputs and approvals, the process is hands-off for your team.
End-to-End service: Brew Digital manages everything from discovery and design to development and implementation.
Quick turnaround: With a well-defined process, theming can be completed faster than most companies expect.
Misconception #3: We can build this in-house

Specialised expertise: Brew Digital's experience in UX, accessibility and branding ensures the best possible outcome.
Faster implementation: Internal teams may take months to execute what a dedicated theming service can deliver in weeks.
Ongoing support: Unlike an internal build, professional theming services include updates and maintenance to keep your Confluence instance optimised.
