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.

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.

It's great for documenting libraries for internal use and describing processes and procedures - as long as it can be formatted as a Q&A. But it can't replace more formal documentation - can use it to complement such docs with specific use cases and edge cases, and references doc in the answers.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
