Overall Satisfaction with Stack Overflow for Teams
We use Stack Overflow for Teams as our main Q&A wiki. We use it to document internal libraries, processes, and common issues. In many cases, we write the questions already with the answer as a form of documentation. Sometimes it is used as the public Stack Overflow to get an answer from our internal community.
Pros
- Search for answers
- Ask a user/team specific question
- Give feedback for contributing a question or answer
Cons
- Suggest public answers to private questions
- Support for long-form documentation
- Lists sometimes act weird
- Ask and answer questions
- Mention someone android gives them mail notification
- Slack integration
- Increases productivity
It's easier to use Stack Overflow for Teams Q&A to maintain our knowledge base over time, over the Confluence wikis that we also maintain. You don't need to bother about folders, filenames, templates - just ask a question and answer it or get it answered. It feels less formal, so developers feel more free to add content.
