• Navigation. Similar to other Atlassian products, users have complained that aspects of Confluence are difficult to learn right away[.]
• An issue that users can face when using Confluence is attempting to edit a document while someone else is editing. Although users can access the document and save it, they are unable to see the changes happening in [real-time] that other users are implementing until they refresh their page. Some users have also noted that this can result in loss of edits.
• Another drawback of using Confluence is its specific organizational structure. All information is stored within one page or project, although the page is able to be broken up into sections, some users do not prefer this style. Users can use the ‘page tree’ on each page to organize the different elements of each project.

• BlueJeans Meetings is not as popular in the non-business world, so your clients may have to install it before you can meet with them.
• Limited use of 25-person meeting display: it's simply not practical for smaller devices or computer screens.
• High-quality streaming options are limited by your clients' and employees' stream speeds.

• We've gone from folders and folders of Word documents and PDFs into a single system with a search feature to bring all of our data together and trackable
• While onboarding took a bit longer for the company (to switch from a Word document centric mindset - to a web-based one), overall the company has embraced the features and power of Confluence within the working stack
• However, as costs continue to climb for the Atlassian product, we are forced to continue our evaluation of the product - with replacing it a remote possibility if it begins to outprice its usefulness to us.

• As our company moved to a fully remote working arrangement in early 2020, we relied heavily on BlueJeans to allow our teams to function. Thankfully it allowed us to continue without missing a beat.
• In the absence of in person travel and meetings, BlueJeans has allowed our sales teams to still connect with clients and meet sales targets in spite of difficult circumstances leading to success in what could have been an otherwise disastrous situation.
• BlueJeans has also helped ensure our teams stay connected and provided an atmosphere where virtual happy hours and team hang outs could occur during a completely remote work situation.
