Overall Satisfaction with Atlassian Confluence

We are using Confluence increasingly throughout our entire company. I manage our Test Engineering team and I was the first leader to really utilize Confluence to the best of its ability. We had all this knowledge in everyone's heads that needed to be documented. You know, the "bus factor." Utilizing Confluence for this has rapidly increased the knowledge sharing across our team and teams. Also, it's much faster to onboard new employees when you can direct them to your library of documentation and how-tos!

Pros

  • Organizing information: Getting ideas and knowledge out of peoples' heads.
  • Creating how-tos to save people time on valuable business processes.
  • Documenting the systems and processes vital to the business.

Cons

  • Nothing concrete comes to mind.
  • Knowledge hub.
  • Embed most files used in business.
  • Radiating thoughts and ideas easily.
  • Really reduced the amount of time spent training new hires.
  • Smart way to organize all pertinent information.

Do you think Atlassian Confluence delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Atlassian Confluence's feature set?

Yes

Did Atlassian Confluence live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Atlassian Confluence go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Atlassian Confluence again?

Yes

I would not use it for creating technical diagrams. Presenting ones already created, however, is perfectly fine—presenting as an embedded file/image or an attachment. It's perfect for organizing lots of knowledge, how-tos, and team agreements. It's really helped my team to maximize our time and share information in the most efficient manner.
