Overall Satisfaction with Atlassian Confluence
We use Atlassian Confluence almost like an internal Wikipedia for the entire company. It is a knowledge base and recording center for all information. Every department uses it and we use a lot of features in it. Each business unit gets a "space" to put their pages in. From there is it s directory/folder like structure with each page being a piece of documentation. Attachments are usually avoided in place of just putting the information in the actual page.
- Markdown Support
- Organization by document, folder, space
- Ability to favorite or watch pages
- Email digests of changes
- Hard to collaborate/edit at the same time
- Search is hit or miss
- Feels SLOW to use
- Single-Sign On Support
- Once place for all documents and knowledge
- Organization by business units
- When you can find what you are looking for its great
- Pinning webpages to Slack channels for Knowledge Base
- Documenting requirements
We used Confluence because we were already using BitBucket and it was within the same family. I haven't really used any other software that would be like this other than SharePoint and this is slightly better. On a whole I am not a fan of this type of software in general and really just prefer Google Drive and Documents.
