What differentiates Confluence from other similar products?

Confluence is a fantastic tool for document management and sharing the artefacts effectively within the team. It provides excellent capabilities to edit the document, create templates, and various types of Dashboards. One may leverage the calendar feature to maintain the team level activities like birthdates, leaves etc. Integration with collaboration tools like JIRA and Rally helps users to manage software requirements and supporting documentation at ease.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Limiting the access of the documents to specific people as per the need basis is an excellent capability provided by Confluence. This way one can restrict the un-authorized access of the files and retain security.

What do you dislike most about this product?

The search results sometimes populates result set with items which has nothing to do with the search text provided. Given one has to scan through the results one by one, there is an extra capacity spend on striking these off and looking for relevant documentation.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Overall Confluence is a very good tool for all type of organization due to cheaper license costs, effective document management. Integration may not be that effective with Microsoft suite but there are plugins which can help achieve this too. Capability to leverage various plugins helps create effective dashboard that can reflect good information in terms of team's performance, roadmap, etc.

  • Effective Service
  • Helps Innovate
