The question/answer format is not always the best one to communicate knowledge. Upvotes/downvotes are also a debatable system since they have a different weight if the person receiving them is a known colleague. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
SO for Teams has many of the features of the main, public Stack Overflow site. As such, it is a great Q&A site. We use it is parallel with MS Teams and with email.

Some minor features of Stack Overflow main public site are missing. For example, some tag handling features. I cannot use Google, of course, to search the internal Stack Overflow for Teams. I wish they also had a Google search box in parallel with native SO for Teams search. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

StackOverflow is beneficial for the more obscure scenarios we come across. It is an excellent tool for training new team members. It is nice to store most of the information we need in one area. I also like the search function to find related questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The only downside is that sometimes I forget it is an available option for us to get our questions answered. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like that answers are reliable for company-specific issues. The full benefit of Stack Overflow for Teams comes from the quality of the employees' solutions, and by having a great staff and a great forum tool, things get communicated company-wide very quick and accurate.

I wish there were links to find similar subjects on public Stack Overflow, so that a quick and easy internet resource can supplement internal issues. Privacy of company concerns is also a plus for this application, so keeping that separate from the public forum is a necessity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I'm using Stack Overflow for Teams for a side business. We sell a technically sophisticated product and all the ordering, assembly, site management, etc, is done by a small team otherwise known as "my family." Everyone has different aspects of the business that they are the ones most familiar with. Many, many tasks are only done once in a while, yet it's imperative that they are done quickly and correctly when needed. Each time I find myself wondering "wait, what's the procedure for that again?" I add a question to my SO Teams instance. I get whoever has the expertise on it to write the answer, and, when I use the answer again, I edit over time to improve it.
Keeping track of all of these kinds of details was stressful because I would forget the details in the sporadic intervals between needing to do infrequent tasks. Knowing that the answers to "how do I do X" will be at my fingertips with a quick search has completely removed that source of stress from my life.
As a software engineer, I use the public Stack Overflow all the time for this kind of thing--details about how to set up my git environment that I only use when starting a new job, for example. I'm extremely happy that I can use the same kind of knowledge retrieval for other parts of my life. I highly recommend to any small business owner like myself--or any large one for that matter. Tribal knowledge is so hard to capture, but SO Teams makes it easy and pleasant to do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I suppose one downside is that I should probably have some kind of organized documentation for all of my procedures, but since I know the instructions are in SO Teams, I don't bother. And in my particular situation, there's a bit of recurring stress because I'm using it for a side business that is only running intermittently. I get emails about it being inactive and in danger of deletion (I'm still using the free tier--business is still in startup mode) if the intervals between use go too long. That wouldn't be a problem for someone in one of the paid tiers, though. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Easy to ask questions from peers
Great way to encourage and archive knowledge sharing across company
Easy to search past questions to look for solutions to common issues Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
May be a little pricey for smaller businesses that can't use their free plan and are just above 50 users. Integrations to applications like JIRA are another huge bump in price. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
