Manage projects effectively with seamless task tracking and integration, but deployment requires familiarity
We are conducting all our project management using Atlassian tools. We use Atlassian Confluence for task management, reporting, visualization of tasks, and reviewing the progress of tickets and work I use Atlassian Confluence for task management and other project management tasks, such as…

The gaps in the API are filled by our own R+D and the publish mechanism is very reliable.
The API is awful. We needed to develop a batch load tool in order to send automated events to Tibber API. The current API version is not well documented, i.e. the current version of the API in the software doesn't correspond to the web-documented API. We had to imagine parameters and names. We had difficulty making it all work, as the login/SSO mechanism was not properly explained so that we could perform external logins to the API and use their features.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"With respect to our experiences with Confluence, we haven't had any issues."
"Highly recommended to any organization as a way of breaking down silos and sharing information more effectively across teams and departments."
"Users can create tables and directly pull all Jira tickets into a Tableau format."
"Confluence has helped us through its ease of use and access to relevant information in a targeted way."
"It is very easy to use and setup."
"Document collaboration is the most valuable aspect of the solution."
"The best feature is the automatic tagging of information in documents. The automatic algorithm highlights irrelevant information that conflict with the actual documents."
"Overall, I love the ability to quickly upload and preview documents."
"The gaps in the API are filled by our own R+D and the publish mechanism is very reliable."
"Typically the classical ROI is about seven months from full deployment, but there are a lot of benefits that we can't measure with this metric, like more dissemination of knowledge, fast internal expert finding, less internal emails, less waste of time, and better employee engagement."
 

Cons

"I'd like to see some improved reporting on usage."
"An area for improvement would be the intuitiveness of using the features, especially if you want to customize."
"Also, the pricing module needs to be adjusted."
"The user interface could be improved."
"Atlassian Confluence should improve the interface, it needs to be more user-friendly. It is easy to use, but it could be more intuitive."
"The product should have a workflow with approvals out-of-the-box."
"Space maintenance could be made a little more user-friendly."
"Customer service: I would give them a rating of 7/10. The technical support was helpful."
"More customizable features, particularly in mobile app; better preview of document and images stored in other cloud services (like Google Drive, Dropbox and so on)."
"The API is awful."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"This is a very expensive solution."
"There is a license needed to use Atlassian Confluence."
"The issues I have with the pricing are in respect to the add-ons."
"Maybe we're only using 10% of it, but we have to pay for everything."
"Pricing wise, it ends up being an expensive solution. In the beginning it's cheap, but by the time you have all the functions you need, it turns out to be expensive."
"I am using the paid version. My company has purchased it for company employees. We are using Confluence as a company. I don't know how much it costs, but its price is good enough. Its price is not so high."
"There are some cases where you can go on Confluence as a public site without a license, but you will not have all of the features. You can also have a Confluence site that does not require a license just to read the articles. When you have Jira Service Management attached to Confluence, then you can go through the portal of Jira Service Management and read the Confluence articles without the license. This is good because when you are in an ITSM environment, you have many customers, and you do not want them to have to pay just to read articles. Regarding the use of the full features of Confluence, there is a license cost, and it depends on how many users you want."
"The price of the on-premises data center version is too expensive."
