### "Great product for creating wikis to document common processes" — 5.0/5

> **Tom** | *4 February 2022* | Higher Education | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: + The support of Markdown and the preview of the documentation.&#10;+ The automatic creation of a page contents using headings.&#10;+ Pre-made structure of Shelves \&gt; Books \&gt; Chapters  \&gt; Pages helps to get started.&#10;+ Numerous IDM integrations including apps like Slack.&#10;+ Auto-save of drafts.
> 
> **Cons**: - Pre-made structure of Shelves \&gt; Books \&gt; Chapters \&gt; Pages is limiting.&#10;- File upload is only through a small droppable area which can cause you to loose the page.&#10;- Very limited visual customisation.
> 
> Easy to upgrade and maintain with regular ongoing updates from the developer, however the product is conceptually limited by the developers desire to retain the Shelves \&gt; Books \&gt; Chapters \&gt; Pages structure, rather than abstracting these into a default set that could be customised.

> **Pros**: Facilidad de uso. Es prácticamente instalar y funcionar. Rápida, intuitiva, pero no por ello poco potente. Posee todas las características que una aplicación de este tipo tiene que tener; Control de Versiones, editor potente, facilidades para organizar la información. Su estructura en estantes y libros resulta sumamente cómoda a la hora de asignar permisos.
> 
> **Cons**: Un poco mas de personalización gráfica y de elementos que se pueden visualizar o no, dependiendo del rol que se esté utilizando.
