"It has a very intuitive user interface, which every user able to manage the basic functionality of a PC will be able to work with and produce quite satisfactory results."
"What I like the most is the Wiki software that comes with Atlassian Confluence."
"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 solution is stable."
"The most valuable feature of Atlassian Confluence it's very easy to use and there are different options."
"This is a scalable solution that supports thousands of users."
"The search functionality is a really powerful feature."
"If you have a global solution, you can go from one product to the other very easily. And then you can share data between all the different tools of Office which is good because participation and sharing is very good. That's the most important aspect of Office 365."
"The most valuable features of Office 365 are Word, PowerPoint, Excel, and Teams. Teams helped us to collaborate more through its call and document sharing features."
"Adaptable solution with a good interface. It's easy to set up and easy to use."
"There are no more server and hardware operational costs and downtime, updates, etc. for all the workloads available. Newer features and updates are available immediately. Can be managed from a single web interface. Cloud-based, so same experience for all users, regardless of location."
"It is stable."
"The product helps us be more efficient. It helps us to have a standardized way of doing things."
"The functionality that is most valuable is the solution's ability to detect patient data in email attachments. Whenever a user sends out an email with patient data embedded in an attachment, it triggers an alert. The tool can detect a social security number and various other forms of patient identity. Emails are then automatically generated and sent."
"The most valuable feature is Microsoft Exchange."
"I would like to see more macros provided by the company included in the license."
"There is no concept of peer review or a draft mode - whatever you write is live."
"The dashboards should be improved."
"It would be interesting if they had graphical templates that allowed typical agile ceremonies to be documented better."
"Atlassian should rethink its withdrawal of the self-hosted version of the product. They only offer cloud-based service or the "datacenter-edition", which is quite expensive for small companies and private users."
"There is room for improvement in terms of pricing."
"When we import the data in Confluence from Word or any other document, the formatting is not correct."
"The user interface could be improved."
"The security should be improved."
"We have found that, with Teams, if you are including one more person who is not in the company ecosystem, supposedly I'm inviting them as a guest in the chat. However, when I do that, I can't share files."
"I started working a lot on Microsoft Teams and I find it a bit vast. It should be divided out a bit so that someone can use it for basic functionality, like audio, video, and calls. Then, if someone wants more advanced functionality for file sharing and team creation, and so on, they could use a separate app."
"If two people update the same file, it causes issues."
"The online applications have limited functionality compared to the local applications."
"The integration with mobile services is not so good. It's coming, but they could improve a lot."
"As a private user, I do not appreciate the cloud features, but I doubt that this is something Microsoft would consider a feature request."
"Using Office 365 is not that flexible on some mobile devices, like Android."
