Alternatives Considered

Google Workspace (formerly G Suite)

Before [Atlassian] Confluence we were creating Google Docs stored on Google Drive using our Google Worskpace. The problem was that we weren't able to optimize the way we were linking Product Management tickets to Google docs and we were loosing so much time at trying to find old files and creating a tree structure where to store files.
