Pros/Cons
Pros
- It's intuitive and easy to use while being very robust and comprehensive. Perfect for distributing work across teams and keeping track of progress and issues.
- It’s a great program that helps organizations stay on top of project completions or important customer interactions.
- There are nice features that integrate across the ecosystem, like opsgenie, also the charts seem useful, having multiple metrics about the project progress.
Cons
- The problem is that with the passage of time I have been getting more things that I dislike and the initials do not stop bothering me, they could even bother me more at a certain point.
- Some of the breakdowns of what issue the problems fall under aren't specific enough, and there are character limits for some of the requests when they should be able to leave more detail.
- Its configuration is a little confusing. As for use, in the beginning user is somewhat lost due to many fields and features of the tool.
Pros
- I have had an overall good experience with Confluence and it is easy to create and share documents. If you are using JIRA already I would recommend this.
- I integrate it with jira to show any kind of project progress. The version control feature on confluence is excellent and the fact that multiple people can edit a page at the same time is awesome.
- Great product for sharing software creation and communications. I really enjoyed the workflow and ability to communicate with several developers.
Cons
- I dislike that Confluence gets a little confusing with multiple links for the same page (a long link and a short link), but it is hard to differentiate.
- You also need to make sure that obsolete information is cleaned or marked obsolete, otherwise documentation rot can make information difficult to find.
- It happened to our team and it made using Confluence unpleasant and annoying.
