"It's easy to search for information."
"The solution is stable."
"With respect to our experiences with Confluence, we haven't had any issues."
"The trial stages, the ability to connect it to Jira, and the ability to export in PDF are all good capabilities."
"Collaboration is most valuable. You can upload or create your documents on Confluence and share them with your team members. Your team members also can share documents."
"This solution allowed us to easily input details beyond just text, such as creating basic data charts to monitor team performance."
"Quantity and variety of partners with solution development ability on the platform."
"The access control is definitely a good feature. We also appreciate the improvements they've made to the online applications, where multiple users can work on the same documents simultaneously. Everything syncs automatically."
"SharePoint is already moving to cloud, if you are using SharePoint online, which is cloud-based technology, it is more accessible."
"Removed the need of paper storage and people flow into the office."
"The ability to quickly and easily create team sites has been great."
"The search feature is valuable."
"The most valuable features are the Integrations, web site, and search."
"The metadata services, the WCF service integration and the Voxel feature are three most valuable elements of this solution."

"I would like Confluence to include the ability to draw flowcharts and diagrams."
"I would like to see the text editor upgraded from its current limited abilities."
"Atlassian Confluence's old versions consume too much memory, making it an area where optimization is required from an improvement perspective."
"The area that needs improvement is the search capability. It should have generalized capabilities."
"When we have a project that we don't want to share with everybody but want people to know that it exists, there is no way to do this in Confluence. When a project is not shared, people cannot see that it exits."
"In the next release, I would like to have the ability to import pictures."
"Some aspects of the drawing perspective could be improved. When we upgrade a design and make technical architecture drawings to publish, we still use Visio first and then copy and paste it. If this feature were available on Confluence, it would be a useful tool."
"The solution lacks collaboration features."
"It has worked very well for me. It seems like they've improved everything. I don't have any cons about it as such, but I don't think they have a talk-to-text, speech-to-text, or speech-to-type. That would be cool for accessibility."
"Document management and the ability to easily integrate single sign-on (SSO) are areas for improvement in SharePoint."
"Make it more intuitive."
"We would like more security features, like automating."
"The support is the worst. It is bad when Microsoft support does not even know what to do and you have to tell them. Also, they take too long to solve a problem."
"Improve the user-friendliness."
"Replication needs improvement."
