Mosaic vs Aura: the full breakdown
REDUCED COMPLEXITY
All-in-one content creation
With Mosaic, you don't need an extra formatting app to get the full Confluence design experience.
Enjoy professional page templates, easy page design, content management, and a full suite of macros – in a single complete package.
CONFLUENCE-FRIENDLY PAGE CREATION
Quick, simple, and flexible page building
With Aura's paid companion app, designed pages and templates work as a single macro. This means you can't add native Confluence formatting or collaborate on pages, making it best suited to sleek, static landing pages.
Mosaic plays to Confluence's strengths. Its templates and Smart Designer add macros the native way, with each element added as a single macro. Collaboration, editing, and go-to native macros all stay in play, making Mosaic perfect for polishing everyday content.

What Mosaic's users have to say:
I use the built-in templates quite a bit because I find they really help me start pages quickly, and they are easy to edit. We can also mix Mosaic elements with other Confluence macros, which gives us flexibility to organise content exactly how we need it.
Živa Ramic
Our work involves detailing complex network configurations and security protocols, and presenting this information clearly has been challenging. The macros helped us organise dense technical articles into a self explanatory and easy to follow format. We have found the branding tools and templates useful for maintaining a consistent look across our client facing resources.
George Legault
I've been using the smart designer feature that lets me swap out text sections with better formatted elements, I find it very useful for making the pages more intuitive and pretty. I also use the templates it comes with, especially for OKRs and FAQs, really help keep everything uniform across the spaces.
Stefan Zweig
