A great Documentation Solution
What do you like best about the product?
Confluence offers a great product for documenting, and planning your work. If there is something you need to do, chances are you can do it in Confluence.
What do you dislike about the product?
With such a large arrangement of features, the Interface can be confusing at times. You are often supplied with a large section of options, each with additional options, and without spending a fair amount of time researching they may still not help.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are working to create full documentation for our IT Department. Having this information readily available has been a fantastic improvement to our workflow and efficiency.

If you are looking for a generalized solution for your documentation and planning Confluence can help! It will take a bit of work to get everything just the way you like it, but when its all put together, you will have the documentation you have always dreamed of.

Your day to day needs for documentation!
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use and ability. The cloud bases application makes it easy to access from anywhere. The revision control is also very helpful and ease for AD integration. Another big bonus is your ability to export to PDF and word!
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the formatting tools are limited. It try to mimic Microsoft Office but only gets about 30% of the way there. It does make it easier for the day to day user but some advanced tools would be nice for those that can handle them.

Centralized document storage and collaborations. This also helps us with revision control. This helps tell us who is editing when and we are able to look back at all previous versions.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great day to day tool does lack some advanced features.
Confluence for product requirements documentation
What do you like best about the product?
Confluence provides an easy setup to be able to create product requirement documents. Our product team has used this to create documentation for our stakeholders.
What do you dislike about the product?
I like how you can create Jira tickets directly in Confluence, but I don’t like how it is difficult to view those links back to Confluence when you are in Jira.
The UI is clunky, and the navigation scheme in Confluence is also very cumbersome.

Confluence, a good place to share knowledge
What do you like best about the product?
Having the ability to create documentation in a collaborative way and providing a common space to team to structure whatever information they need. Confluence questions is one of the best things confluence have, a "stack exchange" alike place where people can ask question to be answered by experts.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's a powerful tool but is easy to create a to create a complex structure where no one will be able to find anything, is actually quite important to try to keep a simple information structure to make sure that the navigation is easy and clear.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
People is usually reluctant to create documentation in classic document formats like Word documents, using this simple tool will push the employees to create and create high quality information due to the fact that most of the time that that documentation will be widely available
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Is a good solution for people working in the IT world but the "code" used to write documentation could be hard to understand to non-tech people.
