Confluence vs Google Docs

Confluence is open by default, making company-wide information readily accessible where in Google Docs, knowledge can quickly become lost or hard to find.

To prevent ideas from getting lost in private folders and to turn messy plans into executed reality, teams choose Confluence over Google Docs.

Confluence vs Notion

Notion is a notetaking workspace for quick thoughts and lightweight to-do lists. Unlike Notion, Confluence fulfills the advanced needs of teams and comes with the power and flexibility every organization requires for knowledge sharing and collaboration.

While Notion works for note taking, teams find Confluence is the robust solution needed for project collaboration and creating a central knowledge base.
