What is Confluence?
Atlassian Confluence is a tool that improves collaboration through more efficient knowledge sharing. Designed to be open and collaborative, the platform makes it easier for teams to work together on a wide range of tasks and projects, from product launches and marketing campaigns to technical documentation. Seamless integrations with other Atlassian products and apps from the Atlassian Marketplace also ensure that users’ workspaces have all the functionalities they need.
The software allows you to create an organized, dedicated workspace that connects teams. Confluence offers over 15 templates to help teams get started on creating their ideal workspace. Pages can be customized with images, videos, and GIFs to make them more engaging. Once pages are up, these can be easily shared with the team. This way, everyone is always on the same page.
To improve organization, Confluence also allows users to group related pages. Structured page trees, categories, and a robust search feature ensure that users can always find the content they need. The software further boosts productivity through capabilities such as in-context feedback through inline and page comments.
