It's like comparing a pickup to a van. They're both largish cars with some storage potential, but the venn-diagram of people considering either as their personal vehicle is gonna be pretty small.
- capableweb 4y agoAre they not? With words not related to cars, could you describe for what cases Confluence would work better than MediaWiki?
- 411111111111111 4y agoCollaborative live editing of documents including advanced macros, deep integration into Jira, bitbucket etc. MediaWiki is a great tool, but it's not targeting Enterprise, basically.
- capableweb 4y agoCollaborative live editing is available as a experimental feature: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor/Real-time_collaboration https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor/Real-time_collab... Obviously not ready for prime-time, but might get there in due time. Advanced macros? As far as I've used both, I never had a macro in Confluence that couldn't also be implemented in MediaWiki. You can basically have access to the whole of PHP in MediaWiki so not sure what the limitation is here. > deep integration into Jira, bitbucket etc I mean, obviously. Which "open source corporate wiki" could even have as deep integration with Atlassian as a Atlassian product? Atlassian would never allow you embed non-Atlassian stuff into BitBucket. Why would they allow for example GitLab to embed their issues in their own product with as deep integration?
