Feature Parity
When comparing Mosaic for Cloud to the DC version it is important to realize that Confluence DC and Cloud are very different. This means that many of the DC macros are either not required or not possible in Cloud. However, these differences also allowed us to improve the experience of using Mosaic macros.
