Rabindra K Maharana - PeerSpot reviewer
Editing features improve document accessibility
There is a holiday calendar, however, I need to install an app or add something to it. The add-on feature is not readily available or well-documented. Guidance on this should be available in a forum. Recently, I used a feature in another tool—perhaps GitHub—where it helped prepare a chart. It involved listing resources, like having fifteen people in the X team, ten in the Y team, and seven in the Z team. It created a bar chart showing these numbers. This chart used AI to offer users the option to create it based on the data. It was then created on a separate page and made available.
Deepak_Patel - PeerSpot reviewer
A knowledge management software that provides great scalability options to its users
Right now, I work for a company that sells products like access control systems, time attendants, telecoms, and CCTVs for video surveillance. My company needs to contact the concerned people of companies in the USA and Canada who would like to purchase our products. Our company is in India, so we want the directories which are being used in the USA to be able to trace potential buyers of our products. I recommend the solution to those planning to use it. Due to some loading-related issues, we have faced with the solution in our company, I rate the overall solution a nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The templates are a valuable feature. You can make templates. There is a space inside where you can create pages. When you use the template, the page auto-generates text and images. You do not have to think about the structure of your page as well, which I think is a very good thing for a user. Because usually when you're in front of a blank page, it can be a bit dreadful to know where to start."
"The most valuable feature is the accessibility from different sites for different colleagues and the search option."
"The solution is stable."
"Document collaboration is the most valuable aspect of the solution."
"The best feature is document management."
"I think that it is one of the best products on the market from my experience."
"The most valuable features is its design documentation abilities."
"It is a very popular tool."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
 

Cons

"Atlassian Confluence could improve the stability, there are timeouts sometimes."
"There is a significant difference between the data center version and the cloud version of Confluence. Providing the same features in both versions would be beneficial."
"The standard table capability is substandard and virtually unusable."
"The solution is not very user-friendly."
"It would be interesting if they had graphical templates that allowed typical agile ceremonies to be documented better."
"The UI is good but bland. It could be updated a bit to make it more modern and interesting to look at."
"It lacks ease of integration."
"I have a couple of different pipelines that I work with. However, I'd like to see them displayed differently on the same dashboard. So, I would like to have a unified dashboard to view the different pipelines."
"The solution's stability is an area with shortcomings that need improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing wise, it ends up being an expensive solution. In the beginning it's cheap, but by the time you have all the functions you need, it turns out to be expensive."
"The product is neither cheap nor expensive, meaning its price falls somewhere in the mid-range zone."
"Making integration with other tools easier would be beneficial."
"For us, it's free to use. We don't pay any licensing."
"We have a site license for Atlassian Confluence and there are some limitations on external users."
"When you purchase this solution you get some support."
"I am using the paid version. My company has purchased it for company employees. We are using Confluence as a company. I don't know how much it costs, but its price is good enough. Its price is not so high."
"In my opinion, it's worth the investment"
"There is a need to make payments towards the licensing costs of the solution."
