May 08, 2026A Powerful Hub with Some Rough Edges
Confluence has been invaluable as our team's central knowledge base, making it easy to collaborate on documentation and keep everyone on the same page. However, the editor feels clunky compared to modern tools, and it can get painfully slow with large pages or many macros. While the core features are strong, the overall experience is sometimes frustrating.

May 08, 2026Clunky and Overpriced Collaboration Tool
Confluence feels slow and bloated; even simple edits lag, which is frustrating during team meetings. The search function is notoriously bad, making it impossible to find documents you know exist, defeating the purpose of a central knowledge base. For the high price, you'd expect a much smoother and more reliable experience, but it often feels like more of a hindrance than a help.

May 06, 2026The Central Hub Our Team Needed
Confluence has become the single source of truth for our engineering and product teams. It's fantastic for creating detailed project documentation, wikis, and meeting notes, and the ability to @mention colleagues and assign tasks directly within pages keeps everyone in sync. While it can feel a bit clunky at times, its powerful integration with Jira makes our workflow incredibly smooth.

May 06, 2026Our team's central hub for all projects and documentation
Confluence has become the single source of truth for our team. We've moved from scattered Google Docs and email chains to structured pages, meeting notes, and project outlines all in one place. The ability to @mention colleagues, assign tasks directly, and embed Jira issues makes cross-functional collaboration seamless. While it has a learning curve for new users, the time saved on finding information and reducing meeting overhead is immense.

May 04, 2026Powerful but often clunky collaboration hub
Confluence is a central repository for our team's documentation and has become essential for onboarding and project tracking. However, the editor can be slow and finicky compared to modern alternatives, and the sheer number of features makes it feel bloated at times. It gets the job done, but the user experience isn't always smooth.

Apr 30, 2026Overcomplicated and Sluggish
Confluence has become a bloated mess that slows our team down more than it helps. The editor is clunky and constantly fights against us with unintuitive formatting and slow loading pages. For a tool meant to simplify collaboration, it adds frustrating complexity to even basic documentation tasks. We're actively looking for alternatives that don't require a training manual just to write a simple project update.

Apr 30, 2026Frustratingly Slow and Overcomplicated
Confluence is painfully slow to load pages, especially with embedded images or tables, which completely disrupts our workflow. The editor feels clunky and unintuitive, making simple formatting a chore. For the high price, we expected a much smoother and more reliable collaboration experience.

Apr 29, 2026Our Team's Central Hub for Documentation
Confluence has been a game-changer for our 20-person marketing team. We've moved all our project plans, meeting notes, and style guides into it, which has drastically cut down on email noise and version confusion. The ability to link pages, comment directly, and @mention teammates keeps everything in context. While there's a slight learning curve for new hires, the overall structure and search functionality make it easy to find what you need.

Apr 26, 2026Clunky and Overpriced Collaboration Tool
While Confluence promises central collaboration, it's become a slow, cluttered mess. The editor is frustratingly buggy, often losing formatting or freezing during basic edits, and the search function is practically useless at finding anything in our growing wiki. For the high price we pay, it feels like we're getting a product that actively hinders productivity rather than enabling it.
