Its really simple UI - you can customize it to your exact needs and there doesn't seem to be a limit.
What do you dislike about the product?
Its a little boring to look at, seems like a basic intranet with no cool looking typography or colours
this is where we host everything and anything for our company so i feel like the look could be a little more appealing to get people wanting to use the site

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Noting critical at the moment but the benefit with this is that we have one source dedicated to all materials per department at our company. People dont have to go through multiple softwares to have any delays to look up something because its right at their fingertips
Is simply one of the best collaborative tools! for now
What do you like best about the product?
I think that one of the reasons why confluence is so successful is that it is super easy to setup, to use, and to find what you are looking for. The navigation cannot be more straightforward, so is a very simple process for anyone in the company to consume and to create new content. This depends of course if your content is structured in a way that supports this.
What do you dislike about the product?
Performance can be slow. If you choose self-hosting, make sure you have a good server. Otherwise, it can be slow. I don't have experience with the cloud service.
Confluence's simpleness is starting to feel behind in time. The design has been exactly the same for a couple of years and it feels dated now, yet still very very functional. Don't get me wrong, this could be a very personal opinion anyway. Confluence can be expensive depending on how many users you have, so compare the pricing you get with other tools in the market and the functionality is best when you are using other Atlassian's products as JIRA. Otherwise, other tools can be more cost-effective.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using confluence as our internal content HUB, this is: company updates, project tracking (not management), everything relating to company updates, events, pictures, success histories, and frequent company performance reports are published here. The main benefit is that helps everyone in the company have frequent updates and information about what's happening in our company globally, and the required tech level is none.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Assess if the size of your team, projected team growth and the current and future price of confluence, and try other tools to see if you can get a better price-value. Confluence is good but expensive.
Documentation at its finest
What do you like best about the product?
It has allowed us to streamline our IT documentation for over 45 customers and have it readily available to anyone in our organization. We have levereaged this tool to build a strong confidence with our clients in our knowledge of their environments and transition of that knowledge interanally.
What do you dislike about the product?
We have a lot of templates in use and it woudl be nice to report on how complete each of those tempates are for any given client.
