Confluence program used in office
What do you like best about the product?
I like best that confluence is easy to navigate. It's great having a company like "facebook" where we can update share important things with each other pertaining to specifics projects each team is working on. Confluence keeps our company informed and aware of daily happenings. We also have the chance to share personal things about ourselves on our individual pages. It was a great way to learn about my new coworkers when I first started. I also enjoyed creating my own page, it was fun activity to get to know the product while engaging with coworkers.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that confluence has some limitations. I cannot figure out how to delete a page once created, my biggest annoyance with program. Wish editing could be easier, I like the templates offered but I wish there were instructions within the tool on tips and tricks for creating pages. I typically just ask our confluence guru here in the office but even they could not figure it out. Also I have had some difficulty in the past of locating buttons like the undo button. Even though there is ease with navigating I would appreciate better placement of most used buttons for editing pages.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With confluence our teams are in the know, we share updates and current statuses of projects we are working on. This is my first experience using confluence in the workforce and I have highly enjoyed it. I love that it is live and updates immediately once I have published my most recent edits. I love being able to watch other teams pages, especially projects I am most interested in keeping up with. It also increases team awareness of the status of current projects or if someone needs additional information. Instead of meeting one on one or re explaining information, you can just send someone a link of the confluence page where they can find all needed information.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend confluence for other companies. I have only used once in work setting but have enjoyed my experience and believe it does benefit our projects and team collaboration.
Confluence
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use, great for documenting and for team work. I used this at my PREVIOUS employer, and I figured it out right away. Some of the other team members took a while to get it. But it does work great for documentation and for team work purposes.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some people find it a bit intimidating when they first start using it. However, give yourself and your team time, and you'll like it. There is nothing about it that I hated. It took a bit of time to get everyone trained on how to do it. That was the only thing I did not like.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Collaberating, documentation and communications were easier with confluence. It benefited the team I worked for at the time. I wish my current employer had it!

Information Sharing and Collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
