It is used for various aspects of software development and documentation, including requirements gathering, and testing - both functional and unit, as well as managing customer-generated tickets. It is also employed for ticket resolution, defining software requirements, and aiding in software development planning. For the planning aspects, it is often integrated with Jira, a popular project management and issue-tracking tool. It also plays a role in defining and executing software workflows triggered by Jira tickets, ensuring that necessary activities are carried out efficiently and in a structured manner.

View full review »Since Confluent is integrated with Jira, we use it to keep our key documentation, including product development and LLD design documents. We also use Confluent to support or track the progress of the different work items spent or released.
View full review »We use the solution for wiki to share information with the spaces. For example, we have an idea that supports the developer team, so we create spaces to share the documentation. We have access to some data.
We use it for internal communication. Before Confluent, we shared documentation through our work. But with Confluent, we simply create different folders for different purposes.
It's very easy. I can create a page and share it with others. For development, we use the "one way to page" key point feature, which makes development super easy and quick.
Another interesting aspect is that multiple people can modify the same page simultaneously. If you click edit, you'll see other people's initials moving around. It's quite funny.

I use Confluent for real-time data processing and ETL tasks.
We are using Confluent for documentation. We use it to have documentation for the Agile team, as a reference or to share it with the stakeholders. It holds the project data, and what's happening right now.
At a higher level, the business initiative and all things related to tracking high-level, enterprise-level tasks is something we are not doing it right now. We are doing that part in a very traditional way using Excel sheets, which is very manual work. We haven't automated it yet.
View full review »Confluent is an amazing tool. It gives you the ability to basically create nice documentation for various products. It is highly configurable and integrates very well with Jira. You can use it for reporting as well. When it comes to hosting online content, it is in competition with SharePoint.
