"The interface is good....I didn't face any issues with the scalability. It was very good."
"For me, the most valuable feature is its high performance. It's crucial for us in the bank, as we handle a massive number of transactions every day."

"Quantity and variety of partners with solution development ability on the platform."
"The most valuable features are the collaboration and sharing."

"Helps with document collaboration and workflow."
"The roadmap feature should be made easier to work with and modify. It's not really scalable."
"The product should have a workflow with approvals out-of-the-box."
"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."
"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."
"I have a couple of different pipelines that I work with. However, I'd like to see them displayed differently on the same dashboard. So, I would like to have a unified dashboard to view the different pipelines."

"There is room for improvement in maybe the tree structure for articles. If you have a lot of articles, it becomes difficult to navigate."
"The cost of the solution is too high."
"It should have more user-friendly customization, as it still requires developers to get engaged and build sites."
"It does not integrate despite being part of the Microsoft family."
"There are some limitations on storage."
"Emails stored now do not display metadata in native format."
"It is too heavy. MS should not have paid foreign coders dollars per each row of code. They wasted the stability and reliability in the end."
"The solution lacks collaboration features."
"Too many versions being released in a short time period. Too much time being devoted to migration planning."
"The product could be improved in a lot of way. It is so frustrating to get things to work as advertised."
