I'm considering using Confluence for our company intranet. One of the first things I need to figure out is how to manage users that will be read only. We currently have a server license for 100 users and we'll need to upgrade our license to accommodate approximately 200 users that will actively add/manage content on the Intranet. The other 1000 users will simply need read only permissions. I'm hoping there is a way around having to pay for 1200 confluence users when 1000 will be read only. I read up on "Anonymous Users" and while this user type would work for all internal intranet access, obviously we can't have anonymous users external accessing a company intranet.
So, I'm wondering if anyone has a user management strategy for a confluence intranet? If you have any ideas or suggestions, they would be greatly appreciated!
