Stack Overflow for teams; but really big teams

We tested Stack overflow for teams to organize our internal documentation. In the end, we noticed it was not the best tool for that job. But, it is great to generate a forum-like conversation among different team members; as well as to keep track of tips, best practices, etc. However, it is not very useful for small teams; for that case is easier to simply discuss these topics in person
  • organizes questions and answers in an easy to read way
  • Allows users to vote or downvote answers
  • Allows to add comments that are not necessary an answer to the question
Cons
  • Motivation: the tool works fine but we could not make our team use it on a daily basis
  • Organization: after several questions have been created it is kind of hard to find the required information quickly
it works great when your company needs to create an internal developers community and give them a space where they may discuss several topics. It also works great for an internal FAQ and internal forum. However, it does not work well with small companies; there is simply not enough movement to justify the purchase.

Great for large teams with dispersed knowledge

We use Stack Overflow for teams as a temporary documentation resource to avoid having to ask the same questions of the other members of the software team. This allows us to keep a record of decision points during the design and development process before things are finalized into documentation.
  • Recording.
  • Collaboration.
  • Engagement.
Cons
  • Organizing things can be difficult.
  • Manage multiple questions and answer tags at once.
Great for larger teams with knowledge spread out and more employee turnover.

We are sharing the solution to common problems. We are asking common infra questions. We also have questions and answers for the local setup. This helps us resolve problems while onboarding. The knowledge here also helps us find quick solutions to small problems. It is easier to use and find what we are looking for than a wiki. The tags are very useful. The upvotes help us find the most useful posts faster.
  • Sharing technical solutions to problems we encounter in our internal development environment.
  • Sharing best practices we find in external resources.
  • Discussions on design patterns and conventions we can use in our projects.
Cons
  • A better code sharing environment would be better.
  • Better integration with Github so we can easily link to code (with preview) and pull requests.
Stack Overflow for Teams has been very helpful for us to find the most useful knowledge about our processes in developing microservices. We could easily find solutions to problems/challenges we encounter while deploying, debugging, or investigating problems in our microservices. It is not suitable for communication purposes. The answers may become stale and the readers may be unaware.

Stack Overflow for teams helps me complete my work and not have to leave the product I use most. It allows for cross-team collaboration in an instant. I can see a feed of all the different posts available and respond right in the app I use most. I enjoy this feature and would recommend it highly to other people.
  • They do the live feed very well.
  • Giving medals out for contribution increases collaboration.
  • See a point system allows for a little friendly competition.
Cons
  • I would recommend an increased engineering focus on the Microsoft Teams integration.
  • It would be nice to make more medals.
  • Easier ways to earn points.
When I have a question it is nice to be able to simply ask my team. I don't have to rely on strangers but effectively increase communication with my teammates. This allows for a greater sense of community and for coworker involvement. It makes it easy to answer each other's questions.

Collaborating made fun

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.
