I'm curious if anyone has experience migrating from Confluence to Loop within a large corporate setting—specifically a company with around 1500 employees. We have a ton of historical documents, some that need to be transferred and others that might not. Besides the logistical nightmare and manual efforts required, I'd like to know what other challenges you faced. I've noticed that there doesn't seem to be any integration between the two, so we'd likely be looking at a lot of manual copy and paste. After the move, did you find any important features missing that you had in Confluence?

If you're migrating a company of your size, the lack of an API for Loop is definitely a major concern. You have to think about what happens if Microsoft decides to stop supporting Loop. It raises the question of how you’d handle an exit strategy—would it mean another extensive manual transfer of your documents? I really think you should evaluate the reasons for the migration beyond just cost. There are probably better alternatives in the Microsoft ecosystem if pricing is your primary issue.
I totally agree. The push for Loop seems driven by cost savings since it’s bundled with 365. But what other options should we be looking at?
