Confluence vs G Suite: What are the differences?
What is Confluence? 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.
What is G Suite? Collaboration and productivity apps for Business. An integrated suite of secure, cloud-native collaboration and productivity apps. It includes Gmail, Docs, Drive, Calendar, Meet and more.
Confluence and G Suite are primarily classified as "Project Management" and "Productivity Suite" tools respectively.
Some of the features offered by Confluence are:
- Spaces
- Pages
- Editor
On the other hand, G Suite provides the following key features:
- gmail
- google drive
- Calendar
"Wiki search power" is the top reason why over 88 developers like Confluence, while over 610 developers mention "Gmail" as the leading cause for choosing G Suite.
According to the StackShare community, G Suite has a broader approval, being mentioned in 10728 company stacks & 1087 developers stacks; compared to Confluence, which is listed in 1152 company stacks and 628 developer stacks.
We are highly dependent on G Suite for all our collaboration and productivity needs, from Gmail and Calendar to Sheets and Docs. While it may not be as robust as Microsoft's offerings in those areas, it's totally cloud-based, we've never had any downtime issues and it integrates well with our other tools like Slack. We write and collaborate on all our specs/PRDs in Docs, share analyses via Sheets and handle our meetings via Calendar. #StackDecisionsLaunch #ProductivitySuite #Collaboration #DocumentCollaboration
