Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"What I find the most valuable about Confluence is how easy it is to use.""It's easy to search for information.""The most valuable feature of the solution stems from its document-controlling feature. In Atlassian Confluence, controlled documents cannot be edited by anyone else.""As for valuable features, the team management features help us to share information very easily.""I like the documentation. It's a central platform, and there are many things that I can do with it. I'm very pleased about it.""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.""Confluence is easy to use and integrate with other solutions, including social media platforms.""The most valuable feature of Atlassian Confluence it's very easy to use and there are different options."

"It's a very scalable solution and the performance is pretty good. The scalability, in my opinion, is the biggest advantage.""The WebCenter Content is its most valuable feature. After we update a document in WebCenter Content, it can be update automatically in our intranet.""Oracle integrates well with other products to cover Big Data.""You can move workloads in between sub-servers so that you don't overload a portion of the server.""WebCenter's interface is very user-friendly.""A great solution for storing and searching large volumes of documents with easy access.""Integration within the solution is very good."

Cons
"The one way in which this solution could be improved is by offering better design and UI.""The price could be improved. I have heard that certain adjustments would be made in 2024 and that it will then be more expensive, but I don't know the specifics.""Space maintenance could be made a little more user-friendly.""Atlassian needs to provide the source editor or a built-in plugin.""When you are creating a table in Confluence, there is no tool to export it into Excel sheet for quick references. We can only export it as an a PDF file, but not into an editable file.""An area for improvement in Atlassian Confluence is encouraging more vital interaction among the project members or users involved. I was researching a tool that could be used for better interactions offline among users on a specific topic or discussion. That feature would make Atlassian Confluence better.""The way Atlassian Confluence handles tickets could be improved.""I would like to see integration with Slack."

"This solution needs to support translation into the Arabic language.""Its functions need more stability.""The speed of the backup should be enhanced.""Does not seem to be totally compatible with Windows 10 as of our current version.""There are many document management systems that offer pretty much the same functionalities but at a lower price. The product as such is pretty good. However, the pricing is not comparable. They need to adjust their pricing to be more competitive on the market.""The solution should be offered in Persian. Right now, our version is in English, and there's a bit of a language barrier between the users and the product.""I would like them to add more Web 2.0 features.""WebCenter requires a lot of design effort to upload content to our regular system."
