Stack Overflow for Teams is used in my organization as a knowledge repository. It saves a lot of time as people can directly go and get their queries resolved by performing a search in Stack Overflow for Teams. The upvote function works great and for questions where answers are not readily available, the automatic notification for subject matter experts is a lifesaver.
  • Knowledge Repository.
  • Upvotes and Highlighting.
  • Notification System.
Cons
  • Text Formatting.
  • Reordering of preferences.
  • Searching for multiple tags in one query.
Stack Overflow for Teams is best suited for organizations that are implementing multiple projects and want to create one central knowledge repository. It is a great tool to ensure that various project implementation knowledge is properly categorized and accessible with ease for future use. This is ideal for medium to large organizations.

We use Stack Overflow for Teams as a primary tool for knowledge management. As any company out there, we have devs more experienced devs and people who are just starting (in terms of our business know-how and in general coding too). So it is important to have a place in which newer devs can search and ask questions and also have this content preserved and searchable.
  • Great search tool.
  • Allow users to direct questions to specific people who they think can help.
  • Most devs are familiar with the site, so it has a small learning curve.
Cons
  • I don't like it when I'm searching in the company's private account and the search automatically goes to the public SO search, I would prefer to be asked if I want to search in the public SO.
It is great for scenarios in which you want to retrieve knowledge in a QA fashion. Not so good for registering knowledge in a more lengthy way, like posts.

Excellent Knowledgebase tool that your Engineers will probably find familiar!

We use Stack Overflow for Teams as an internal knowledge base, initially for some frequently asked questions in engineering, then we gradually started adding more content that was applicable to sales support/sales engineers. The search capability is excellent, along with the tagging, so it's super easy to get your eyes on the information you need almost instantly! Really helpful.
  • Search
  • User interface
  • Tagging
  • Clearly distinguish between question and answer
Cons
  • Branding
  • Custom subdomain
  • SSO
For me, if you have an Engineering Team, and you need to build an internal knowledge base, then Stack Overflow for Teams is absolutely invaluable. The chances are the engineers will already be familiar with the UI through the use of Stack Overflow (publicly available).

For a less appropriate use case - I can't really think of any, to be honest. If it's a knowledge base style product you're looking for, then Stack Overflow for Teams would definitely be something you should consider.

Stack Overflow has been really helpful. It has helped the most in collaborating with other team members over product discussions. After using Stack Overflow for Teams, we had a single place where everyone posted their doubts and anyone from the engineering team who has the answer to it could come on the platform and answer the question or doubt. This way the question as well as the answer was transparent and publicly available and not sitting in someone's DM. The biggest relief it served was that now if you face any issue then before directly asking you can search it on Stack Overflow for teams and could find an answer there.
  • We can add tags to questions. This helps in filtering similar types of questions. So when our organisation collected more than 200 - 300 questions, we filtered the questions and we could generate a report on what topics most questions are asked. Then the expert on that topic took one session and explained everything to others as well.
  • Searching questions are pretty easy. We can either search using tags or using keywords. Hence if we got stuck anywhere while developing or brainstorming, we could quickly go to Stack Overflow and search if this question was already asked.
  • Stack Overflow also shows points for individuals. This way we were able to identify the developer with most points and hence reward them for their contribution.
Cons
  • Integration with Slack can be done better. As of now for every minute update we get a notification on the Slack channel. There was no way to limit that.
  • More integrations can be added. For example integrations with ClickUp or JIRA to directly create a task from Stack Overflow.
  • Points assigning algorithm could be better. If I am answering my own question, I used to get points, which ideally should not be the case.
In my opinion, Stack Overflow for Teams is well suited for an organization that is on a hiring spree for the engineering teams. The reason for it is because instead of catering to doubts of new joinees individually, they can be asked to refer to the Stack Overflow and hence will save a lot of time for both new joiners as well as the existing employees.

I use stack overflow to quickly find troubleshooting steps and answers as part of my daily workflow as a technology worker. Its service is free for small teams up to 50, it's searchable and, structured, and integrates flawlessly with Microsoft Teams. Stack Overflow for Teams is best used for sharing knowledge across a department to enable each agent quick and easy references to your tech stack.
  • Search
  • Aggregation
  • Integration
Cons
  • Automatic removal of irrelevant articles that are voted down
  • Offer On-prem solution
  • Native desktop and mobile app
So many uses. But I think Stack Overflows strong suit is helping startups manage knowledge in one place. It's intuitive, very familiar in the tech scene, and is cost-effective. The ability to publish answers directly from Teams or Jira is a Win! Because sometimes, you find the answer on the stack and need to quickly be able to share that info without having to bounce between apps.
