What differentiates Confluence from other similar products?

Confluence Whiteboard is an unusual feature on knowledge management platforms.. I have benefitted hugely from this feature because it makes brain storming and planning work actions a lot easier. I can illustrate my ideas better using stickers, emojis, shapes , lines and so on. I can even turn my ideas into actions by utilizing the Confluence integration with Jira, to turn nice team ideas into project issues on Jira.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Its lovely how Confluence centralizes important work information around key projects happening in my company. I can take notes and refine ideas with my team mates, spread out across different locations.

What do you dislike most about this product?

To be honest, Confluence layouts are outdated and in my opinion, not very user friendly. Confluence is also lacking in any capability to work in offline state, which I think is a big limitation.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

I recommend this platform for effective idea and knowledge management for fast paced teams.
