Easily create contents with great JIRA sinergy
What do you like best about the product?
In every single page, you can add your own comments and give feedback to the content creator so he/she can improve it and plan changes.
The ability to fast reference JIRA tickets while commenting is also really nice as it helps to keep focus of the real issues.
Another interesting aspect is that you can extend its functionalities by adding apps/modules, which are really useful when using multiple services.

What do you dislike about the product?
You really need to take a tour in order to grasp its full potential.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creating a "home" for the company documentation while improving cross-team work and efficiency.
Being able to check the revision history helps a lot when you work in a collaborative environment where different teams share ideas.
You can also customize your home/views so it's easy to keep track on important things and be on time.

Integration and installation is easy, but maintenance can be difficult
What do you like best about the product?
Works as an internal social media board for the workplace, where all can contribute equally and can be used for controlling internal documents. We primarily use it within the organization as a note-taking space when in meetings and for managing large scale projects that are being coordinated amongst multiple teams, like Operations, Engineering, and Product. We use multiple confluence boards for the creation of process and best-practice documents, that others within the organization can refer to/use. That is a big life-saver in a large organization like ours, where each project has multiple stakeholders. I personally like the feature where members can type simultaneously and the document is saved automatically, the most convenient feature of all.
What do you dislike about the product?
Maintenance can be a hassle sometimes due to the fact that there are not many options for organizing the content.
Also, there's no template as to how to set this up and you have to look at forums for ideas, or just making assumptions on how you think it should work. A knowledgebase is helpful but given the complexity of using this software, I think it would have been better if proactive help or tips were present at different stages.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using it primarily for documenting organizational processes and creating best-practice documents to enable faster and more efficient knowledge transfer within the company. The engineering team also uses this for new Products and feature development to keep a track of all Epics at a central repository.

Go for it without hesitation
Confluence - Best for saving and uploading documents !

It is advanced and reliable project management software for every business, can easily gain lot of knowledge about any particular document and topic.
What do you dislike about the product?
Takes too long time to install and configure. Also takes longer to update or save any changes on any documents on confluence
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The best platform to save or upload all your project documents on confluence. It helps to share the agendas and workflows with team members due to which the plan and the communication goes better to the team. Feedback feature fascinates me, as it helps in taking more proactive decisions. It also increases the productivity of the team. Even if there is any sensitive document which you want to upload on confluence, you can always limit to the people which you want them to have access to documents.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Confluence makes things easier for the companies for people who work abroad. I would strongly recommend this document repository, which helps a lot in saving your imp documents at one place which is accessible to all.

Potentially a great tool
What do you like best about the product?
Confluence makes new write ups simple enough but the best benefit is integration with atlassian’s other tools like Jira and bitbucket
What do you dislike about the product?
I find the interweave a little bit lacking. To be fair, I’ve yet to encounter a similar product that fully satisfied me
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are currently use it for knowledge management/wiki purposes.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you’re looking for another corporate wiki tool, confluence will do that. If your looking for some sort of super user friendly and intuitive JIT type knowledge management system, you’ll have to wait. This does have the added benefit of integrating with Atlassian’s other tools which I find useful.
Useful all-around space for collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
I like that it is easy to integrate a lot of different forms of collaboration using confluence, so it is true to its name.

While it is pretty powerful, I would say that confluence is not super intuitive for new users. It definitely takes some learning time to get people used to it and actually increase their productivity.

We are using Confluence for collaborating on research and software development projects.
Confluence is great for maintaining documentation, release notes and other technical docuementation.

Documentation to provide across global teams. One stop place for everything related to a product/service for internal as well as external teams.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use it for all your documentation needs.
Confluence Review

Using Confluence at work for two different companies
What do you like best about the product?
Confluence is a great way to store and house complex information for multiple teams to share.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is a pretty vast platform and sometimes finding the right information can be difficult but there is almost always someone at every company who knows it inside and out. It may take a bit of time to get used to or find the right information but it sure beats having to ask 10 different people for the same information.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I mostly use Confluence as an internal resource center. It's helpful for training, new hires to get the job done, managers to upload useful information, etc. The benefits are great as the entire team can get on board with new processes or information with just one link being updated.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Ask about it at work, chances are someone you work with has experience with it. Every company seems to use or customize it a bit differently so that may be a great way to get a feel for if it's right for you.
Team Management
What do you like best about the product?
Development progress is so much faster and more effective now that we can communicte with our team using Confluence.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's a little too white for my eyes, the background could be grey scale, that would be easier on the eyes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Team management, documentation, tracking progress, remote work, constant communication. We are moving forward so much faster with this tool.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great team management, this really helps you to keep on track!
