(447 Ratings)

Confluence is a strong enterprise knowledge and collaboration platform for documenting processes, decisions, risks, and project artifacts at scale. It works particularly well when paired with Jira to provide traceability from execution to documentation. While the core capabilities are solid and reliable, advanced reporting, aggregation, and dashboards styles views often require add-ons or manual structure. Overall, Confluence delivers high value governance and page standards are clearly defined.

Notion has become a core tool for our team's day-to-day work. We rely on it for note taking, maintaining reference files, and organizing product roadmaps through its database functionality. It works especially well as a centralized knowledge base, making it easy to link documents and point team members to a single source of truth. While more complex setups can have a learning curve and occasional performance issues, it's an invaluable tool for keeping our work organized and accessible.

Document360 acts as the specialized knowledge base for my organization. It helps in bridging the gap between technical documentation and customer self service. For me, as a user, it has helped me learn and gain expertise on our product portfolio through an easy to use interface. It has helped me find answers to questions that I may have regarding our capabilities swiftly. Overall, I believe it is a high-performance choice for SaaS companies that prioritize a clean, searchable, and professional support portal for both internal employees and c=its customers.

Unfortunately, my experience is only average because we are working with a very old version. It has a very oldfashioned design ad very long loading times. Still I am satisfied cause we have only this tool to store and share our knowledge and I can adjust and provide our content in a sufficient way.

We have had a great experience using Stonly. The platform makes it incredibly easy to create step by step guides for clients and internal teams to look for answers quickly. The biggest benefit is how quickly we can build and update content, and use various types of trigger to push information to our clients proactively. On top of that, the support team has been responsive and helpful whenever we have questions.

The service has worked well for the most part -- our biggest hurdles have been getting the Ask AI feature to provide consistent responses and accurate information. Having to edit the content itself at a micro level to avoid incorrect or inconsistent responses is extremely time consuming and occasionally fixing one problem creates another.
