Confluence is easy to work with
What do you like best about the product?
I like the UI and its UX built around it, really easy to navigate and find the things you need, permissions and availability to share docs is so easy a human can do it.
What do you dislike about the product?
There have been a very few times where I was unable to save a document, and in those instances it gave me an error, the availability for me to research more about the issue and contact support was very bad, after a few days trying to contact support, I was told to try again, by then I have given up on the whole thing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
sharing and keeping interdepartmental knowledge relevant and fresh.

The aesthetics of the software could be more pleasing to the eye.

We are solving efficiency issues and realized goals that are set through the software are more likely to be accomplished!
Does the job
What do you like best about the product?
I like that it allows group collaboration and interactivity. It's helpful that all resources can be in one place, as well, especially for larger teams.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't think Confluence is organized very well and it doesn't offer very many options for nesting/grouping/searching through resources. I think this makes it difficult and sometimes confusing to navigate.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Confluence to catalogue our writing standards and best practices. It has helped our team sync on what standards we are supposed to honor.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I think this is a good tool, but I would be very intentional of how the content is catalogued and how updates to the content is communicated.

Confluence is a great for documenting
What do you like best about the product?
Confluence makes it easy to create guides and how-to’s. With the ability to limit visibility to only those desired.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find it hard to format certain pages, as well as get my desired photo shares in the right size.

Creating documentation to guide others as well as new hires.
Confluence helps me organize
What do you like best about the product?
I love that unlike google docs, Confluence allows me to quickly structure a page to best format and organize my thoughts.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not everyone at the company uses it, so sometimes I build these pages in vain. I do encourage people to use it though!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I love being able to lay out a launch plan or a training video curriculum on the page, and quickly and easily share them with others.
Great place to consolidate information

We can publish updates to the whole team on company policies in a sec.

I wish I didn't have to leave Gmail to search it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping everyone up to date on company policies.
A Love/Hate Relationship
What do you like best about the product?
Confluence is a great integration with JIRA software. You can easily tag tickets to wiki-pages in Confluence and visa-versa. If you need a wiki that works into your JIRA software, you cannot beat it. It also allow for multiple people to be in a page at once.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's clunky. The wiki-editing is not super customizable and they often take features away. If I was not tied to JIRA, I would use other means of capturing the same data. Even a Google Doc is as good, if not better than Confluence is.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Document our Common Design Language in a way that is easily accessible by all team members and to document UX work for the engineering teams clarity.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are not a JIRA or Atlassian user, don't start with Confluence. It's much easier to document the same items in other tools. If you are a JIRA/Atlassian users, it's super helpful!

It was utilized as a platform to conduct research and go to previous documents
