Absolutely phenomenal documentation software
What do you like best about the product?
What I really enjoy about Atlassian Confluence is the simplicity and effectiveness of the software. It's a no-nonsense approach to documenting allowing one to focus on developing documentation and allowing to collaborate with others with ease. Setting it up from the administrative side was an ease and deploying it is made incredibly simple. Plus, the 10-user starter license is a steal!
What do you dislike about the product?
The main deterrent from using it how quickly the cost rises when hitting user limits. Because of that we can only use confluence in a smaller group instead of expanding it to a lot of users within our group.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Previously the main way of documentation was a mix out of Word docs, Google Drive docs and stuff inbetween. The problem with that is keeping it all in one place and versioning. Especially when users were to make changes to a piece of documentation without following strict versioning guidelines, things could get problematic very quickly with no one true system insight. Confluence solves this by bringing the documentation in one place.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for a simple yet powerful documentation tool, especially in a smaller team, Confluence is your path. Alternatively, if you are already paying for Office 365, look if you have sharepoint and give that a try.
Good central sharing program
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use and to share contents on pages
What do you dislike about the product?
The pages can be organized in hierarchical structure.
Yet, when you have a lot of pages, it is very difficult to find your wish (although you can search).

Confluence provides great project management tracking tools and allows for easy creation of wikis and documentation. It has amazing collaboration tools which make working across offices easy.

Some of the confluence keyboard shortcuts are required and can be difficult to learn for a new user. Also sometimes documentation on Confluence can feel unorganized. I also dont like that there is not a dedicated desktop application.

Confluence has allowed for project organization to be efficent and wikis and documentation to be collaborative and easy to understand. It also can make searching documentation for specific keywords or phrases easy and efficent compared with just putting this information in word documents.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
