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

"Confluence can link any ticket or task from JIRA to be included on the Confluence page."
"The integration's very good. You still have integration with lots of third party products, and it's very good."
"The solution offers a lot of freedom when drafting directly online."
"The most valuable feature of Atlassian Confluence is the ability to access your files from anywhere."
"With respect to our experiences with Confluence, we haven't had any issues."
"It's extremely intuitive."
"I rate this solution a nine out of ten."
"What I like the most is the Wiki software that comes with Atlassian Confluence."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
 

Cons

"The one way in which this solution could be improved is by offering better design and UI."
"Managing user permissions and credentials could be easier."
"We have to use other applications that make Atlassian Confluence more customized for what you want. They should improve by adding the ability to make more customizations."
"The dashboards should be improved."
"Indentation and other basic word processing styles must be improved."
"The cost of the solution is too high."
"The discoverability of documents could be improved."
"I would like to see the text editor upgraded from its current limited abilities."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Licenses are quite expensive"
"Confluence charges an extra fee for analytics."
"The product is neither cheap nor expensive, meaning its price falls somewhere in the mid-range zone."
"We have to pay licensing fees."
"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."
"The Confluence pricing is good. The only challenge we have experienced is with Jira and the add ons we use that need to be paid for separately."
"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."
"This is a very expensive solution."
"There is a need to make payments towards the licensing costs of the solution."
