Confluence - One stop solution for Project documents
What do you like best about the product?
User friendly UI. Anything that can be done using Microsoft Word or Excel can be achieved using the Confluence for project related documents.
What do you dislike about the product?
Confluence doesn't have the Work flow approvals that can be created for project documents. I do not see option to create a work flow approval for any of the pages we create. In Sharepoint we use workflow approvals to get the signoffs from business team or leadership team. Here in Confluence when we create any pages where we need signoffs, we do not see any option to achieve the same.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Every thing is a page in confluence and we need not upload documents. All project related information can be stored as pages within Spaces in Confluence. Unless Sharepoint where we need to upload documents either a word document or Excel file which causes issue in opening up with different versions of Office as well with different OS like Mac, windows etc. In confluence it is all pages and are not documents.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Confluence can be replaced with any existing SDLC or project documentation tools as this can be a one place accessing all project information. This differs from other tools as here it is all pages where we can create tables with columns/rows, copy paste any images on the page etc.
Confluence Usability
What do you like best about the product?
I like how you are able to edit agendas/meeting minutes in real time to keep everyone on the same page.
What do you dislike about the product?
The page tree is somewhat cluttered and can look like too much is going on.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
By keeping our team on a collaborative working space, we can easily keep track of key documents in our project.
Great collaboration and information sharing tool for enterprise
What do you like best about the product?
I like the way we can manage any document here. I mean you can easily track and manage meeting notes, minutes of meeting as well as upload any document here. There is facility to add watchers to a page or space and for every change you make you have ability to notify them. I have been using it for a long time now and for every project I just go ahead and create a space and start adding pages and sub-pages as the project grows. It also integrates with bitbucket which is awesome.
What do you dislike about the product?
Ticket solving timeline should improve to reach better markets
Cost is on the higher side of the spectrum; not all companies can afford the system for implementing

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have been using this to manage knowledge sharing, meeting notes and team collaboration for project. It saves us a lot of time since bitbucket is our code repo. There is an inbuilt integration already present.

Confluence - Bank of knowledge!
What do you like best about the product?
At SAGE Publishing, Confluence is widely referred to as the one stop knowledge bank where anyone can visit for more information on a given topic or process. Almost each and every department of SAGE has its own Space on Confluence which is accessible to all.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the all white interface can become monotonous for the eyes. Also, it would have been great if the tables had thicker borders.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Confluence is being used as a knowledge powerhouse/bank at SAGE Publishing. It is extremely useful for a new employee as he/she can simply flip through the pages to get a quick overview of his/her department.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great if you want to build a knowledge bank at your organisation!

The name describes the meaning. It links to JIRA and other tools that we provide

It might be overwhelming for new users about the usage of the product. They might have to learn and navigate to understand the product.

It is definitely a great product that can be used for knowledge management, repository management and linking the test cases to tickets in JIRA.
