## Overview

After careful consideration, we decided to** retire** **Custom Dashboards for Confluence** as part of our ongoing product lifecycle management process. While this app will be retired, we recommend existing customers use [Dashboard Hub for Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1224619/dashboard-hub-for-confluence-reports-charts?tab=overview&hosting=cloud) for many of the same reporting features. To help make this transition easier, we’ve emailed a notice and discount code to all current customers to purchase Dashboard Hub for Confluence.

You can continue using your installed license, and we will continue supporting customers with active licenses, but we will no longer release updates through the Atlassian Marketplace. We archived the app on **November 9, 2022, **and licenses were no longer renewable 90 days before this date**.**

We sincerely appreciate your understanding, and we hope the impact on your organization and customers will be minimal. Please don't hesitate to contact our [support team](https://mohamicorp.atlassian.net/servicedesk/customer/portals) if you have any questions.
