Great collaborative software with many uses
What do you like best about the product?
Great collaborative software that operates intuitively like a word processing document or wiki page; allows multiple user to edit simultaneously and is available in a cloud so that it can be accessed remotely if working out of the office; has great organizational abilities where each department can create their own space and subsequent hierarchy of documents ; also love the tagging users feature and task assignments which make it easy to stay on top of things that were mentioned in meetings great
What do you dislike about the product?
At this time there is nothing that I currently do not like. If I had to pick one thing it would be that I do not know yet how to create a checkbox to assign someone a task within a document.

Able to collaboratively work and edit pages like in a manual . Also able to effectively take meeting notes and assign team members tasks
Central Tool for sharing knowledge among projects and documents

Great free collab workspace
What do you like best about the product?
Conflunace is a great workspace that allows you to keep all your docs in one place. It's easy to set up, navigate and use. It has decent visual tools, interlinking and ability to set up permission for access are a big plus.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's rather hard to customize pages, and the navigation or set up of it is very confusing at times. More than several times load time was less than ideal. While it's fairly straightforward to use, it does require training and learning, since it can be confusing at the beginning. .
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Confluence as a central source for new hire documentation, to keep track of sprints, releases and retrospectives. Our QA keeps test plans and QA results along with release dates, so we can interlink them to the sprint overview for ease of access.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It could be a rocky start and may require training, but it's a great product especially if you use JIRA
Good alternative for internal documentation
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to add templates visible globally shortened the learning curve; "Like" feature, etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
Insufficient compatibility with MS features.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Knowledge sharing and FAQ.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try using templates for meeting notes with action items, FAQ pages, etc.
Easy to use
What do you like best about the product?
Confluence is a very easy-to-use interface that allows both inexperienced web developers to create web pages as well as experienced users the option of using raw HTML code for the features that are not available in the GUI. There are options for others to comment on or "like" your page. The permissions feature of the pages allow you to limit the page on a fairly granular level.
What do you dislike about the product?
The page layout options are not as flexible. It would be helpful to have more page layout options that allow for creative placement of Jpegs to liven up the page. Inherited permissions are not obvious when looking at a child page. Adding visibility of the "real" permissions at every page would be helpful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Confluence for internal web content. It is easy to roll out content with Confluence, so user time can be better spent on other job requirements than documentation. The learning curve is fairly small with minimal instruction needed to start creating pages.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If your user base is mostly developers, this is a good product, because developers will spend less time on documenting and more time on developing. It is also a good product if you don't have a lot of web content staff.
Great centralized team collaboration tool

Ability to to create/edit your own pages/spaces and easily share information with team members

Confluence is a beastt

What do you dislike about the product?
Confluence can become extremely u organized and messy if the users do not stick to a plan.

Reminds me of an online notebook

great for documenting when knowledge is needed for a team/company.
What do you dislike about the product?
can sometimes be messy or overwhelming - not organized/categorized in the best way.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Team documentation
Useful but basic
What do you like best about the product?
It's relatively easy to navigate and edit pages and it a good resource to keep the entire company on the same page while also segmenting team documents.
What do you dislike about the product?
It doesn't have all the functionality we need and is pretty rudimentary. It has a pretty good UI and a useful search tool but it's easy for things to be duplicated or lost in the pile of never-ending page creation.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping all documents across Customer Support/Success, Product, and Implementation under one roof. Anyone can search and access whatever document they need based on keywords rather than seeking the help of someone in another department. It allows us to be more self-sufficient and find information quickly while working in a coordinated environment.
