What do you dislike most about this product?

When composing and attempting to style text exactly how you'd like it, there are some things that can be frustrating or that are presumably conceivable but difficult to figure out how to achieve. It is possible to make features more discoverable, and criticism of the current format of the documentation would be helpful for new writers to overcome their blockages.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Confluence hosts a whole lot of great features, such as Spaces, Access management, document upload, and on-platform editing among others. But. the feature I like the most is the Templates. Our Product team at ZS uses readily available templates of Creative Brief, Product Requirements, and Product Roadmap for goal planning, requirement gathering & requirement documentation, and roadmap planning respectively. The best thing is we replicate these templates as-is for all the products in our product portfolio and this helps maintain the standardization of the documents.

What do you dislike most about this product?

There is nothing that I dislike about Confluence. The only thing which I would suggest is that Confluence pages are cluttered with information, providing too many things for the user to explore on the first try, which becomes intimidating. Maybe the Overview page of a Space could be simplified further and a help guide link could be provided to understand the host of features provided in detail.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

I would recommend every team working on building Products use Confluence for team management and knowledge sharing. It has all the things that a team needs - starting from something as simple as a place to capture meeting notes to something as important as a template to prepare a detailed roadmap of the product involving goals and budget constraints among others. It will help increase transparency and increase team efficiency by at least 50%.

Confluence allows us to effortlessly tag, collaborate, and comment on papers with coworkers. I can access the JIRA project management system via it is a plus. The seamless nature of managing projects and products directly results from Confluence's ability to interface with all other Atlassian products.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Confluence has excellent characteristics as a collaboration tool. So nothing much to complain about. Although it is a little pricey, Confluence is ideal for large corporations and is out of reach for startups. To get the page layout I want, I'll need to be familiar with the available macros and make do with the restricted options.

Support for Jira and Bitbucket integration is also quite helpful. It helps in the smooth flow of ideas across multiple teams. Confluence handles all of my company's paperwork, from business and functional analysis papers to meeting documents.
