Handy space for team collaboration

  • August 17, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Simplicity of creating new spaces - no complex user management. Additional features like formatting and adding macros move work with Confluence to next level. Great variability with plugins (free or commercial) you can download from Atlassian marketplace.

With last update Confluence introduced online editing feature - so team can collaborate online on one document together.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes formatting goes wrong when using IE browser, but it depends on you company browser policy and settings that are allowed. UX might be slightly user friendly - but it gets better over time and small steps towards neat UX are made with each update.

As content grows it´s important to pay attention to content governance a keep you documents, spaces and pages organized.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Confluence is great as wiki team space or shared space for DEV documentation. Previously we used Confluence as unofficial intranet sites. You can easily create project page or canvas and share it quickly to project participants.

Great benefits are with sharing and connecting are with JIRA software (e.g. - sharing JIRA issues - connecting Confluence wiki pages to JIRA issues - using active links...)
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are using lots of plugins pay attention to their pricing condition. Very often the vendors changing from free to pay model. Apps / plugins are billed based on the number of users in your host product (Confluence).

Good features, but can be hard to navigate

  • August 16, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Easy to have large teams all report on work and to have a time line. Easy to insert various media to show plots and graphs/tables/records etc. This is very convenient for our team of 30 people, of which maybe a handful may have large updates/presentations, whereas others might have just text or a graph or two.
What do you dislike about the product?
Navigating the pages seems quite difficult. To find certain pages, is quite a chore, especially because the search functionality seems limited in its capability to hone in on a certain page. Finding a child page can also be hard to search for unless you know the exact title.

Furthermore, the feature 'notify watchers' seems to always be checked by default. For a team of 30 people, this can cause quite a lot of spam as we use confluence for our weekly meetings. If one really wanted this feature, they would check the box. If I am not trying to send a miniscule update to everyone on my team, I often forget to UNCHECK this box.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping lasting records of meetings to give an account of work to make compiling reports for higher ups easier. Moreso, being able to try to find old presentations given at meetings in previous weeks. This makes it easy to look back on a cool result or feature presented much later down the line, or look at when performing up follow up works.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a decent content management system, however simple things a s a google doc or evernote sheet are much lower barrier to entry if you don't need many of the extra features.

Confluence: A great documentary manager

  • August 14, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Confluence is a very good documentation management tool. What I like the most is having all the information gathered and the possibility of creating documentation trees to make it more related and more easily accessible. Also, since they made the integration with Jira, it is much more useful to be able to relate Jira's issues with the documentation that is believed appropriate in confluence
What do you dislike about the product?
What I consider worse is when it comes to making diagrams, it gives you the possibility, but it has many shortcomings and it takes a lot to leave it fairly well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have used it for almost all my work experience for project documentation. It helps a lot to relate the documentation and you get great benefits of time by avoiding a lot of time transmitting knowledge to the members of your team

¡Qué caos!

  • August 13, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It gives you complete flexibility to develop your documentation.
What do you dislike about the product?
Precisely its advantage is the disadvantage: too much flexibility. If you are not very organized, it is very easy to get lost and scatter your content everywhere.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Organization of the documentation.
