Confluence - Enterprise Wiki

Confluence is enterprise-class WIKI solution.

A wiki is a simple, practical web application
that makes it easy for you and your
teammates to collaborate and manage
knowledge. With a wiki, your team can:
• share, manage, and comment on
information
• easily make edits that update instantly
• track every change or rollback to a
previous version
• access content securely anytime from
anywhere through a browser
• find information quickly, unlike emails.
