Although the exact number of troops isn't known, it's estimated that the Confederate Army had between 750,000 and 1,000,000 people enlisted. The Union's army was bigger and better-supplied.

There is no accurate means of determining just how many individuals served, but confederate historians estimate there were 600,000 to 1,400,000 total Confederate enlistments.
