It does a very good job organizing all the documents
What do you like best about the product?
We use Confluence along with JIRA and value the manner in which it coordinates. A conjunction is incredibly adaptable. We use it for things like venture following and wiki. this is a regularly incredible programming for distributing arrangements/refreshes/systems. I misuse it for giving bookkeeping arrangements like cost repayment or travel and amusement. Simple to utilize and share all through the corporate.
What do you dislike about the product?
While making a zone, pages would have a far superior intrigue if the designing was a touch progressively vigorous. Right now, there are a few layouts that will be doled out anyway organizing content on the formats, including pictures, resizing and arrangement of the photos are frequently a touch awkward.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The general experience is amazingly worthy. Managing the area from both security and substance point of view includes an exceptionally little expectation to absorb information. the ability to make classifications available spaces might be an or more. you'll have a site space for the documentation, groups, and information area cooperation.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Extraordinary experience. I'm commonly acceptable at learning on new programming, so for me, it had been all acceptable, but it's very intricate. Confluence is clear to utilize and discovered. it's a natural interface that makes sharing archives between groups without any problem. It can make code of scraps, tables, content editing.
Amazing tool for collaboration for documents, process documents, etc

The ability to have action items , comments, various templates for doucments. And its integration with Jira all the benefits that come withing Atlassian's product bucket

The new UI is bit confusing, teams will need to learn it over period of time
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Basically you do not need to move out of the document to see the status of the Jira ticket or Bug, everything is accessible at one place.

A modern platform for project collaboration.
What do you like best about the product?
Confluence makes it very easy to create pages and space for you to organize documentation for your projects. It also helps you with multiple macros to include files, images, multimedia sources, etc. all in one page. It's integration with Jira adds the cherry on top of the cake. Visually, all elements and text are easy to consume. Quick shortcuts to add dates, tasks, etc. make it a great tool with many apparent and hidden capabilities. All in all, it is a modern tool that is worth a try.
What do you dislike about the product?
A truly modern tool provides capabilities without having the user navigate a ribbon or toolbox to find the right setting. Almost all options for confluence such as adding a row to the table, or changing the font, etc. are placed at the top in a ribbon. This is not ideal. While it keeps things uniform, it makes the user spend time going through unnecessary options that are less likely to be used. Instead, it would be great to see relevant options (e.g. for a table) appear next to it in a box when the table is selected. Visually, it is nice and easy to consume but Confluence should experiment by adding more appealing fonts and page layouts. Speaking of layouts, pages with multiple sections crop the elements within them based on the size of the window. However, this should be scaled to size instead of cropped. Some work needs to be done with the resizing of elements.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is great to document project work, store files and collaborate. Confluence is very easy to access and the ability to restrict certain pages helps carry out all work on one platform.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you have used SharePoint in the past and liked the concept, then Confluence would be a good upgrade if you are comfortable with change.
Constantly inconsistent
What do you like best about the product?
It mostly works. Have experience using it from several different companies
What do you dislike about the product?
Slow, inconsistent, editors look different in different states. Frequently has debilitating bugs that have existed for years (pasting images works ~80% of the time)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sharing information within department
Confluence a collaborative Work Space
What do you like best about the product?
The software provides what's called “Space”. The Space serves as a work area where users can provide feedback depending on what their space is used for. Developers can add documents regarding there application development, helpdesk environments can add documents that provide how-to scenarios, and with the number of plugins that are available for confluence there's endless tools available for helping users, developers, and contributors to the manage there space a lot more easily. With this collaboration tool, our enterprise is able to communicate effectively and efficiently across multi departments.
What do you dislike about the product?
When creating a space, pages would have a better appeal if formatting was a little more robust. Currently there are several templates that can be assigned however formatting content on the templates , adding pictures , resizing and alignment of the pictures can be a bit cumbersome.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
By having both Jira and Confluence we are able to bridge the gap of the service desk and our in house knowledge base created within a Confluences workspaces. This is the go to environment for “How to’s” within our organization. Other space is designed for development which contains the categories of their own how to documents. The benefits game has been content collaboration across our organization.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
We attempted to use a tool called On-Time. This is more of a software development tool but we needed something that would allow us to have documentation as well as collaboration in a more descriptive and graphical display. It's when we made the decision to go with it jira and confluence. The combination of the two has worked out extremely well in our environment. It's allowed us to adopt not only an agile method but allows to have a hybrid of both agile and waterfall.
