Confluence vs Quip: What are the differences?
Developers describe Confluence as "One place to share, find, and collaborate on information". Capture the knowledge that's too often lost in email inboxes and shared network drives in Confluence instead – where it's easy to find, use, and update. On the other hand, Quip is detailed as "Messaging and documents. Combined in one place, on any device". Edit and discuss in one place. Quip combines documents with messages so you can work faster, on the web or on the go.
Confluence belongs to "Project Management" category of the tech stack, while Quip can be primarily classified under "Document Collaboration".
Some of the features offered by Confluence are:
- Spaces

- Editor
On the other hand, Quip provides the following key features:

We were using a hosted version of Redmine to track defects and user stories originally. We migrated to Jira.
Jira was an easy decision for a number of reasons:
- It's much more "Scrum ready" straight out of the box
- It's so much easier to keep a track of progress (I love the reporting)
- It natively encourages you to adhere to Scrum/Agile/Kanban practices
- Atlassian has a fantastic DevOps ecosystem when considering the likes of Confluence and Bamboo etc
- So many integrations!
- Its UI is so intuitive which makes it an absolute pleasure to use!
I know there are alot of other tools in this space but not even considering anything else at the moment. Love Jira!
ConfluenceAll ideas and knowledge that needs to be elaborated or shared is done in this wiki. With plugins for create embedded prototypes.
Also is part of the development processes to create requisites and other artefacts.
It's main use is in the development processes, it could be used to create manuals and software documentation as well, but is used more as a collaboration enterprise tool.
ConfluenceAll of our (Engineering) knowledge is in Confluence. We document our thinking, our architecture, support recipes, trip notes, anything and everything. It's very important in a remote setting, to be have this type of knowledge store.
ConfluenceWe use Confluence for specifications and knowledge sharing. We chose Confluence over other wikis primarily because of its integration with JIRA
