We've Been Using Confluence for Years
What do you like best about the product?
We use Confluence in a very simple way - to share information. And it's very effective for this purpose. Confluence - as part of the whole Atlassian ecosystem - is a very powerful tool with TONS of features. We probably use 5% of what it can really do - and that's enough for us, and even at that level we still find it to be cost effective.
What do you dislike about the product?
Because we only use a small portion of the Confluence toolkit, the user interface can be a bit heavy for our purposes. It might be nice if we could toggle to a simpler version where we could strip away a lot of the UI that we don't use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Confluence primarily for internal information sharing and document reference/archive. We work better as a team when using this tool, and we know we can always find that "great idea" or important bit of information when we need it.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would definitely consider Confluence for information sharing in an organization. I believe that the bigger your organization, the more you will get out of it. And if you use multiple Atlassian modules together (e.g. Confluence with Jira) - the value increases even more. As always - consider other options on the market. But we've always like Confluence enough that we haven't evaluated competing products in a long time.
Confluence Review
What do you like best about the product?
This is very good app to manage team PTO. Also IT is verify good app for Show and Tell to store reports and other details.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be more interactive and there should be more plugins available for this site to connect with other apps. e.d. Outlook.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps us manage everybody's PTO so that we know who is available for deployment window.
Great for an internal knowledge base
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use and set up, plus it keeps our information organized and easy to access anywhere with the app.
What do you dislike about the product?
The interface feels a little dated, the solution is you can buy new themes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We used to house our organizational knowledge on google docs, but that wasn't easy to organize. Using confluences we can organize the pages as we see fit and add in labels for easy searching.
I Love confluence
What do you like best about the product?
It is really easy to use. It is a helpful tool that allows us to communicate across all teams. We have a really large company and this tool makes it really easy to collaborate with each other. I love the calendar feature on the application as well. I am able to see when all my coworkers will be out of the office on PTO and for other reasons. It also keeps a nice schedule for our on call rotation.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is very difficult to organize. Once you have started adding documents it is really hard to go back and make it organized. All of our documents are just dumped into different tabs that dont make sense. It also doesnt hold very large videos. You have to edit and cut your videos in order to get them posted. I do not like that because we like to collaborate and share different videos and with them all cut up they look weird and do not flow very well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The business problem we are solving is that we are able to collaborate and have visibility on the entire company. Even our partners in India, Canada, and China. Being able to watch how these teams as well as other teams solve problems is a huge benefit.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Go for it! It is a really useful tool. It would be good for a large company or a small company.
Great internal documentation and collaboration tool!
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to dynamically tag other pages, content, and people paired with the native integration with JIRA and all the additional tools and features like the macros make this a wonderful documentation and collaboration tool.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's not much I dislike about the program aside from the inability to share certain pieces of information on a Confluence page publicly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As our organization is growing, we are finding it increasingly difficult to continue our old practice of tossing a sticky note over the cubicle as a way of sharing information. Confluence has allowed us to document and share information efficiently across our organization, which has been invaluable in the pursuit of growth.
Confluence is Confusing

Its easy to build, design, and link in 3rd party content. They do a good job of letting you create what you need to.
What do you dislike about the product?
Search Functionality. It sucks. Its impossible to find anything you need using their search.

Each Org of our business keeps project files, a database of knowledge, new employee training resources in Confluence.
Technical Documentation in Confluence
What do you like best about the product?
Confluence is a collaboration wiki tool used to help teams to collaborate and share knowledge efficiently. With confluence, we can capture project requirements, assign tasks to specific users, and manage several calendars at once
What do you dislike about the product?
The email notifications that are sent when a watched page is changed could be improved to highlight the changes better.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Business wanted to integrate JIRA which turned .out to be a no brainier. The out of the box integration was seemless. Live editing made collaboration easy.
Also reduced the need to email meeting notes and have multiple people save copies locally.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Very simple and intuitive user interface.
Very easy to go ahead and start writing, very low "learning curve", really fun.
No need for a different authoring tool, compile and publish cycles. Simply edit and save and voila!
