Confluence is an amazing organizational platform for my team
What do you like best about the product?
I like that Confluence provides change tracking for any document stored on it. I also like that it is very intuitive and easy to use. Making categories and folders containing several different forms is highly beneficial. I also like how simple it is to insert different media types into documents such as images, tables, and highly formatted text. It is also convenient that it is integrated with Jira so that my team can link tickets and tag other Confluence users within documents.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is not anything in particular that I dislike about Confluence; however, there could be better options to integrate it with different software.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I find that Confluence does not have any overarching problems that influence my workflow in a negative way. I have, however, been able to utilize Confluence to document various bugs and feature details regarding the products my team works on.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend any project team or committee to utilize Confluence, as it is a convenient way to document anything you might need to. It is wonderful if you integrate it alongside Jira, as they seem to be companion software platforms. Confluence also provides a great way to document notes taken during Sprint Planning meetings and team retrospectives. You can tag team members in each weekly document so they can view any notes taken during the meeting. Permissions are also available so only certain members can make changes to any particular document or set of documents.
Solid wiki tool that promotes collaboration across multiple teams

I love that Confluence allows me and my team to work on a number of different projects in an organized environment. It's easy to see changes made to different documents and there are many built-in tools that produce a visually pleasing result.
What do you dislike about the product?
Confluence can sometimes be tricky to navigate with larger projects. While it is a wiki tool, sometimes it's not always easy to jump between different sections of a page.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Confluence helps my team have a set of standards that we can reference on a daily basis. These standards are easy to update so the information never becomes stale. Additionally, it integrates with a few other tools and allows my team to share information easily with other teams.
Confluence is a Pro Wiki Tool

Some of the macros tend to slow down the page performance

Project Wiki for the many projects here. We have a glossary thay serves as a handbook for 1000s of Clinical Professionals referring for the details.

What do you dislike about the product?
It can be difficult to find things, especially if there are many content contributors and creators working at the same time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our team has a shared, secured space to create and store documentation. This is especially helpful for the UCD team who gathers lots of data and notes from user research sessions that needs a safe and accessible space for the entire team, beyond the UCD team.
Great collaboration tool!
What do you like best about the product?
I love that it can be used in multiple ways; as a place to take notes, a place to create process maps, a place to share updates with other team members and my favorite part is that you can directly link from JIRA into confluence! I work on a very large project team and this tool has been crucial to help us all stay in sync and provide updates to each other. It also keeps a great history of the work done and can be used as a document repository.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes isit can be cumbersome to find things in the menu when there are a lot of options there. I also sometimes have issue with the formatting features. For example, when I copy and paste from one cell in a table to another, it creates a sub cell inside vs. The other thing that I don't like is that when you link a JIRA story to a confluence page, it doesnt show the title of the link when you are in "edit" mode, only after you save so I am constantly having to go back and forth.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Team collaboration. Working on a very large project team, confluence has played a crucial role and making sure everyone is up to date on decisions being made.
Online Data collaboration at it's best
What do you like best about the product?
Confluence allows the users to take regular document collaboration to the next levels by adding various functionalities such as adding images, videos and tables with the additional integration with JIRA and other tools to directly use links. All this is also accentuated by the capabilities of collaboration with the other users and parallel editing.
What do you dislike about the product?
Confluence can sometimes be too complicated owing to the different hierarchies such as space, then pages and then subpages. The lack of an option of directly creating a new page from the side menu is something that is very irritating though not hate worthy.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The problem that instigated us to use confluence was a lack of a common medium for information storage as the JIRA tickets could not have all the information and details stored with proper timelines. Confluence on the other hand allowed us to Create Sources of Truths for each of the requirements.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you need a tool which is not just a good one for data collaboration but also data management and resource guides creation then Confluence is the best tool to go to.
