Chose Confluence
In my experience, Atlassian Confluence is at the top of these tools. I've had first hand experience with other tools and they are not at par with Atlassian Confluence. The versatility of the tool is very well recognized and utilized. Being a new user is not a probably as all …
Chose Confluence
Atlassian Confluence is a super handy hub for sharing ideas and keeping all your docs in one place. While Jira Service Management is more about handling tickets and support issues, Atlassian Confluence really makes teamwork easy. I feel Atlassian Confluence is user-friendly, …
Chose Confluence
We choose Atlassian Confluence because it is the reference for managing a SAAS wiki service. And having such a solution in our company to manage the knowledge and especially the knowledge transfer is crucial.
Chose Confluence
Confluence has a more robust set of capabilities compared to Dovetail and Trello and also was already approved by our legal and compliance teams, so it tends to keep its stickiness due to that. It's also widely known in the market as a knowledge management tool. I would say it …
Chose Confluence
It's good if you're using Atlassian products, the other ones provide different connections and better UX for documentation in different ways.
Chose Confluence
Overall, Atlassian Confluence is a user-friendly tool and offers such a vast array of capabilities for project and knowledge management purposes and beyond. Other tools listed above have much more limited capabilities, although they are great tools for very specific needs and …
Chose Confluence
Confluence, since it is part of the overall infrastructure of Atlassian, makes it immensely powerful internally, to build an internal knowledgebase, and is far ahead of its counterparts in Zendesk and Hubspot, which is more centered towards their customers. Confluence is just …
Chose Confluence
Sharepoint in out organisation was mostly used for collaborating on documents, which to some degree has been moved to Confluence, where the Confluence pages have replaced the specific documents.
Chose Confluence
Being a company which uses other Atlassian tools, Atlassian Confluence was a great fit; the natural and automatic linking of assets from other platforms made following paper trails seamless. Though the editing options aren't as advanced as some other options out there, it does …
Chose Confluence
We find Atlassian better for its ease of use, real time editing, integration with Jira for bug tracking, stores our security compliance documents in structured way, it is feature rich and have lots of capabilities.
Chose Confluence
In the past, I have used MediaWiki hosted locally as well as Microsoft Team Foundation Server. Wiki was simply a nightmare so all the money saved from paying for Atlassian subscriptions was lost in time while trying to use Wiki and format something properly. I haven't used …
Chose Confluence
We use Jira for the IT tickets, so the step to use Atlassian Confluence was the logical decisson.
Chose Confluence
Atlassian Confluence is better suited for documenting and acting as a repository for information than the more immediate what is currently being worked on things that are better suited for in Jira. In my opinion, Atlassian Confluence certainly has it's short comings but it is …
Chose Confluence
We still use Atlassian Confluence only for its integration with Jira and Bitbucket. For everything else, we moved away from it and are using more modern solutions.
Chose Confluence
We chose Atlassian Confluence over SharePoint because it's much more user-friendly and intuitive. Atlassian Confluence makes collaboration and knowledge sharing easier with its simpler interface and better search. While SharePoint can be powerful, it often feels clunky and …
Chose Confluence
Freshdesk is basically for support teams, while Confluence is better for internal communication and collaborations.
Chose Confluence
The alternatives tested are based only on the whiteboarding functionality added by Confluence Whiteboard, and not the core Confluence functionality (documentation).

Chose Confluence
Again, Atlassian Confluence is efficient when paired with Jira and can do most of what a company needs it to do. But, I thi Spekit is better for "just-in-time" learning, Sharepoint is better for file hosting and organization, Asana is much better for project/task management, …
Chose Confluence
We were inclined to use Atlassian Confluence for its easy collaboration with Jira which is used for tracking project development tasks and issues. Using Atlassian Confluence, content creation became easy and even applying access control to the created content was possible. It …
Chose Confluence
Atlassian Confluence integrates completely with Jira, which is what we use as a company, so it made sense to use Atlassian Confluence as well.
Chose Confluence
We used to use a Wiki site, but that was locally hosted, and when the server was powered off, you could not access it. Moving to Confluence in the cloud is much easier. Also, the interface is much easier to use and expand.
Nuxeo
Chose Nuxeo
Nuxeo gives tough competition to its alternative software. The flexibility Nuxeo provides is good enough to get adapted to a business, and it is somehow unmatchable. It works as DAM along with ECM, and Exo was not good enough compared to Nuxeo. Exo lacked the modern frameworks …
Chose Nuxeo
Nuxeo is far and away more flexible and mature for managing digital assets than the others. It was chosen as a platform that would allow us to work as we need to without starting from scratch and leverage reusable code modules and other best practices.
Chose Nuxeo
We were really looking for something that would be more flexible and customizable to meet the variety of business needs and use cases that we had in the Digital Asset Management space. Nuxeo offered the flexibility we were looking for.
Chose Nuxeo
Nuxeo was chosen for its support and its track record of assisting similar organizations in solving complex CMS needs. We are currently evaluating KeyCloak as a substitute for user and identity management.
Chose Nuxeo
It's easier to use. Provides pre-settings.
Chose Nuxeo
I’ve only used unique platforms that have been built for a specific system. Of course, Nuxeo is more generic, but you can customize it well per your business’s needs.
Chose Nuxeo
The UI, the support, the overall features, and other things. This tool is picture-perfect.
Chose Nuxeo
It is built on open-source technologies. A very small footprint is required to run it. It can be run in a cloud and utilize the power of cloud services, unlike other competitors.
Chose Nuxeo
Nuxeo stacks up very well against its alternatives. It has a very good UI, migration strategy from SharePoint and documentation skills. Content management real time helps a lot. It is an ECM with DAM. Only disadvantage is that it requires a lot of support from Nuxeo to use …

Likelihood to Recommend
Atlassian Confluence is a great tool for housing important information and resources across the organization, as it's very easy to search and find content across different teams and departments. The search function is mostly very accurate and the additional tagging with keywords also helps in the search experience. It's also good at tagging other team members, which triggers an automated email to them. Atlassian Confluence also has an extensive template library for all kinds of purposes like project management, etc., which saves time overall.

I like to describe Nuxeo as getting you 90% of the way to wherever you want to go, but 100% of the way to nowhere. This 10% allows flexibility to add your own custom business rules and operations. This is different than a complete off-the-shelf solution that provides 100% of a solution but does not give you the flexibility that you need. If you want a platform that can adjust to your needs, use Nuxeo. If you are looking for a turnkey solution that will get you off the ground 100 % of the way out of the gate, other options may be better for you.

Pros
  • Its integration with Jira for tracking development and the bugs and work linked to detailed Confluence documentation.
  • We use it extensively for writing Software Product Requirement Documents, feature specs, architecture designs, and retrospectives.
  • Our company follows compliance very seriously, so it helps in streamlining all documentation for ISO27001/27017 compliance and security-related information.
  • Its integration with various tools allows us to create flow diagrams which are often required to make client and customer understand the overall flow of interactions across various modules of the design architecture

  • The platform has Lots of option to protect assets, review and share with the required people.
  • It provides a seamless transition from SharePoint which is extremely useful for our business as we have tons of data stored on SharePoint.
  • It is a powerful tool, especially for searching - since the indexing is super fast unlike other platforms.

Cons
  • You need to watch over the structure of the content yourself. if not you can get information added anywhere so nobody can find it.
  • Top search field is hard to set to only search a section of pages.
  • You really need to think your structure through before starting. a guide when setting up at the start could help in that perspective.

  • Public documentation - it has some + public forums, but we felt more is needed
  • Back-end management - the web UI is fancy, but it sometimes translates to some tough to understand implementations
  • Starting sequence of on-premise installations - Java gibberish in the logs; sifting is required to identify real issues from acceptable ones
  • No built-in monitoring and performance alerting

I am confident that Atlassian can come with additional and innovative macros and functions to add value to Confluence. In 6 months, Atlassian transformed a good collaborative tools into a more comprehensive system that can help manage projects and processes, as well as "talk" with other Atlassian products like Jira. We are in fact learning more about Jira to evaluate a possible fit to complement our tool box.

Usability
It's very intuitive for most things, making it easy to jump in and start creating pages and collaborating. This makes it ideal for onboarding new members to the team. There are a few areas that could be a little smoother, but overall it's a great experience.

Nuxeo provides a
WebUI that they are always improving based on customer feedback. The interface is designed with flexibility in
mind - this means that it must be customized to the business's use case before
it can achieve its maximum usability.

The Nuxeo Studio
interface provides developers and administrators the building blocks to achieve
much of this customization - they just need to put the building blocks together
in ways that best meet the end users' needs.
The API and SDKs allow for more advanced customization.

Performance
We never worked against the tide while using Confluence. Everything loads considerably fast, even media components like videos (hosted on the platform or embed external videos from Youtube, for example). We are not using heavy media components a lot, but in the rare occasion we happen to use one we have no problems whatsoever.

To be very honest: as far as we have used it, we have found it to be one of the best tools. The document repository and the speed of searches are amazing. With it, we are able to enhance scalability, and the basic usage of it is in digital asset management, and it has been helpful in content management, too.

Support Rating
This rating is specifically for Atlassian's self-help documentation on their website. Often times, it is not robust enough to cover a complex usage of one of their features. Frequently, you can find an answer on the web, but not from Atlassian. Instead, it is usually at a power user group elsewhere on the net.

Nuxeo support is very willing to help whenever there is an issue. We have a weekly touchbase with someone from the Nuxeo team that we discuss any development issues with, and there is an open line of communication between our team and the Nuxeo team. They have been supporting us phenomenally, every step of the way.

In-Person Training
No answers on this topic
I attended instructor-led trainings at a couple of points when I was first beginning to serve as project manager on Nuxeo projects. The first one that I attended was meant for business users and decision-makers. The second one was meant for system administrators. The first one provided a great introduction, through demos, of how Nuxeo could be adapted to very different business use cases. The second one, like many instructor-led trainings, was meant for users of a variety of skill levels, and so it could be a bit slow at times for students with a stronger technical background, but the instructor was able to include more advanced components as well.

Online Training

Nuxeo University provides an ideal starting point for developers and system administrators who are new to the Nuxeo platform. So, in terms of online training for developers and administrators, the learning paths are definitely available. In terms of training for end users: keep in mind that Nuxeo is a foundation with building blocks - what you do with those building blocks is up to you and depends on your business's specific use cases. For this reason, end-user training is largely up to you because it will need to depend on how you've built and configured the system. That said, I've seen the companies that I've worked with configure the system based largely on end-user input, and so it has fit very closely with what those users wanted to do and how they wanted to do it. In cases where elements of the UI weren't fitting quite right with what users naturally wanted to do, based on their process flows, we've often found it easy enough to adapt the UI to the users, rather than using training to adapt the users to the UI.

Implementation Rating
Overall, I am very satisfied with the initial implementation (and the subsequent upgrades and implementations made over the years).
This product has never rose to the level of being an major issue at an executive level. It has quietly and valiantly done it's job for our company!
Read full review
I worked with a Nuxeo employee who helped design the initial architecture and implementation for our specific use case. It was helpful to have an individual who knew the system and how we could best utilize it. We have since made lots of adjustments, but the basic architecture is still in place.

Alternatives Considered
Atlassian Confluence is a super handy hub for sharing ideas and keeping all your docs in one place. While Jira Service Management is more about handling tickets and support issues, Atlassian Confluence really makes teamwork easy. I feel Atlassian Confluence is user-friendly, integrates smoothly with other Atlassian tools, and helps everyone stay in sync. It's great for brainstorming, and project planning as well. Overall, it is a great way to boost collaboration and ensure all team members are on the same page.

Return on Investment
  • Merging instances has saved search time - We used to have several instances of Atlassian Confluence, which means they're separate and so can't communicate with each other. We've since merged into one instance and now with the help of the search feature can find the documents you're looking for in seconds rather than several minutes.
  • Cross linking product assets streamlines following paper trails - Being able to click on a BitBucket link from a Confluence page which then links to a JIRA ticket means you can follow paper trails really easily; seconds rather than several minutes.
Read full review
  • It is an open source tool hence proves to be an excellent ROI. Content and document management are managed very well in the tool.
  • Security and role based features play a major role. Migration is a breeze. Hence it is a very positive impact.
  • Nuxeo has very rich feature set but its complex enough and so developers needs considerable time to ramp up on development on this platform .
