What do you dislike about the product?
there's not much to dislike with DokuWiki. if I had to pick something I guess id say there can be a lot of plug-ins. but that really isn't an issue for me.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
saving a lot of time and money using DokuWiki. very efficient
Good quick wiki for documentation
What do you like best about the product?
It's super fast to setup, there's very little learning curve. I use it mostly for small projects since it just works. There are other wiki's out there, but this one seems to be the fastest to implement and get working
What do you dislike about the product?
There's not really a lot to dislike, some modifications take more effort than others but for ease of use it's great.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We had a tech debt issue with documentation of existing services. We used docuwiki to solve that need.
A note taking a collabrative platform for me and my friends
What do you like best about the product?
The revision control. There's been times I've used it for a shopping list and went back into the revision control and reused and edited an old shopping list. Extremely useful.
What do you dislike about the product?
I can't think of many downsides to it, only one that comes to mind is that I can't use a spaces in my passwords for login.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Dokuwiki mainly with my friends for information storage, link clipboards, and quick notes that can be collaboratively shared and updated by us when doing research projects. The revision control system has saved us many times from bad edits, templates have generally helped with this though.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is a great platform for collaborating with your friends in note taking, and general link and information sharing and storage. We use this with friends to do research projects. It's a very good wiki with a ton of plugins as well.
High usability and easy integration
What do you like best about the product?
I like that the syntax is so simple and it doesn’t need a database set it uses simple text files. Very useful for my documentation work
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes initial rendering is too slow
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps a lot with my documentation for the project and helps much better with searching when I get back later to the document for information.
Great simple wiki
What do you like best about the product?
I like that it is so easy to setup and maintain, no complicated database setup to deal with. It’s perfect for instances where you don’t need a huge multiuser wiki. It’s great for keeping notes for one person or a small workgroup or family.
What do you dislike about the product?
Because the web server user has to be able to write to disk, this presents a security concern. But proper configuration of network access and keeping things updated mitigates the risks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am using DokuWiki at home for our family wiki, where we keep notes about appliances, cars, and places we’ve visited. It is super easy to enter the info, and easy to retrieve it later when we need it.
DokuWiki is a great information repository
What do you like best about the product?
I like that virtually everything for a client in Wiki can be easily accessed on a single page instead of a different page for everything.
What do you dislike about the product?
Adding information from scratch, especially new clients that don't have an existing format or template to copy from, can be a headache because of the codes for different emphasis, highlighting, colors, etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Having a single location where we could access all of the information on our clients in a single, secure location. We've realized that not only could we have just our own internal repository, we were also able to add links to external locations.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a great repository that allows you to have access to all of your client's information. It also supports MFA so you can have peace of mind with the added security.
Highly Versatile
What do you like best about the product?
this program is easy to use and very easy to learn. The syntax Are easy to understand and readable.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes customization can be difficult
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It has easy install requirements and over 50 languages available
Nice and simple Wiki for Documentation
What do you like best about the product?
As the name implies, DokuWiki is made for documentation, manuals and descriptions. This is also, where the software can score its most points. It is possible to create nicely formatted and easy to read documentation and information. In addition, the installation and menu are quite easy. System resources and especially needed space for the install are also low. Of course this is unaffected by the amount of data you might later store in the DokuWiki, but it generally works fast and is really great if you are looking for a tool specifically for documentations.
What do you dislike about the product?
While DokuWiki does certainly perform its duties more than well, the design looks a bit dated and simple. The default theme after installation looks somewhat like a software from the early 2000s. Probably, after DokuWiki has been first published, the design never received an overhaul. On the other hand, this simplicity might be especially what other users are looking for. Besides the old fashioned design, the software is really great in what it does.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We had considered using the DokuWiki software to publish some instructions and manuals, since we are an IT business.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is a great software, if you don't bother about the old fashioned design and are looking for simple functionality and a piece of software which is easy to use. For a more general purpose or complex functionality, of course something like Mediawiki is necessary.
