Jira and Confluence are two of the most popular software tools developed by Atlassian. Jira is a project management tool that allows users to create and track tasks, manage sprints and visualise project progress in real time. Confluence, on the other hand, is a knowledge management tool that allows users to create and collaborate on documents, manuals, guides, and other key resources for the work team. Both tools integrate seamlessly with Agile and are widely used by software development teams and other businesses.
We use Jira as a task management tool. This has allowed us to get an overview of the project and the pending tasks, assign tasks to team members, track progress and measure the performance of each team member. Jira is a very complete tool that perfectly fits our project management needs and the agile methodology we use.
On the other hand, we use Confluence for knowledge management as it allows us to create, share and collaborate to produce documentation, user manuals, style guides and other useful resources for the work team. Confluence has allowed us to store all project information in one place and to keep track of updates and changes.
