Stack Overflow for Teams Overview

What is Stack Overflow for Teams?

Stack Overflow for Teams is a knowledge-sharing platform that facilitates the collection, curation, and dissemination of your company’s knowledge. We do this by providing a platform that’s familiar to developers, embedded into developer workflows, and closes the distance between people and the knowledge they need, using gamification to encourage contribution and engagement. The community-based platform connects knowledge seekers and domain experts through an easy-to-use Q&A tool developers already know with additional functionality built in to ensure institutional knowledge is validated, accessible, and up-to-date both now and in the future. OverflowAI, our new GenAI-powered features for Stack Overflow For Teams Enterprise, helps connect technologists to solutions faster by doing the heavy lifting of searching for technical and institutional knowledge by surfacing and sourcing answers in natural ways, in the environments developers work in.

What do you like best about Stack Overflow for Teams?

It centralizes knowledge and and removes individuals as single points of failure for problem solving on uncommon processes and flows. We've been moving to a new VPN software and all of the pitfalls got documted in stack overflow very quickly during the limited trial period and were very useful during the staged rollout.

Search functionality for quick access to corporate knowledge is a must. Microsoft Teams, Email, Slack etc. all do this poorly. Instead of trying to remember the conversation or channel where an issue got discussed and digging through oodles of other useless but somehow semi related information to find the one answere you're looking for, Stack Overflow makes it 10X quicker and easier. So many problem solving conversations i've had ended with, lets make sure this gets asked and answered on SO in case someone else runs into it.

This solves the situation I run into all the time where I encounter a company specific problem and think "I wish I could just google the answer". I can now just search Stack Overflow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Stack Overflow for Teams?

Points for a profile. I know that it's used as an effective gatekeeping method for the public facing site, but with the amount of content and internal moderators within the company I think it would be more useful for employees to have full access out of the gate and give company moderator the ability to limit individual profiles if they are being problematic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Stack Overflow for Teams solving and how is that benefiting you?

I think I coveered this in "What do you like best?" but it solves the problem of domain knowledge being distributed througout emails, chats, posts, and old outdated confluence pages. It helps immensely with onboarding new employees who can easily ask questions to the organization about company specific workflows and when more new employees join, they can just go search SO for their questions before resorting to asking their manager.

What do you like best about Stack Overflow for Teams?

Programmers prefer StackOverflow rather than Google to get technical help.

The upvote system.

There might be multiple solutions available for some questions, so this feature helps to identify the best solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Stack Overflow for Teams?

I don't think there is anything that couldn't attract developers.

But I found one thing that irritates the most is that image uploading for new joiners. It can't let new joiners to upload the image with the questions they are asking. And I think this is the most needed feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Stack Overflow for Teams solving and how is that benefiting you?

It solves internal issues. ie, In any organization, if a newly joined developer faced any issue, he/she has to ask multiple persons to resolve it. And most of the time they are referring to another person for a particular issue. Instead, this platform solves the physical availability of that person. If someone had faced the same issue in past, they can post it on StackOverflow with a solution. So new developers can easily find the solution without waiting for other people.

What do you like best about Stack Overflow for Teams?

I love the fact that most people should know the format of Stack Overflow posts. The Q and A approach to knowledge sharing is very intuitive as opposed to regular documentation tools like Confluence where things become too long to read. Upvoting succinct answers and gamifying the process puts Stack Overflow at the top of my list for knowledge sharing tools. With Stack Overflow for Teams, it just becomes even more focussed. Love it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Stack Overflow for Teams?

Mmmm... I guess my only issue is that the user interface is less intuitive than I expected. Take how long I had to search for the log out button, for instance, or the fact that I didn't know that my SO for Teams account was linked to my personal Stack Overflow account - so I kept trying to sign in to my company account with my companry email address. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Stack Overflow for Teams solving and how is that benefiting you?

Quick, easy ways to share knowledge without trolling through document, hoping that the secret is captured somewhere between the pages. With a succinct question and great search functionality, it just becomes more intuitive, which is what our team needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Stack Overflow for Teams?

Stack Overflow for teams is giving us two solutions, firstly for us to build our knowledge base, in a single central point, and secondly a method of getting help from other teams, such as our developers.

Previously we've lost useful information in mailboxes and chats. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Stack Overflow for Teams?

There is very little to dislike. I do think we'd benefit from some reporting - who's the most active poster/viewer? We'd like to use some gamification to encourage people to post. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Stack Overflow for Teams solving and how is that benefiting you?

Too much knowledge has left with leavers, answers in mailboxes and having knowledge in a central space means that new joiners have something to reference and learn from. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Stack Overflow for Teams?

The most helpful part of Stack Overflow for Teams is that it is well aligned to the public Stack Overflow where every software engineer has experience with.

This reduces the learning curve and ensures a familiar environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Stack Overflow for Teams?

The only thing I would like to be implemented better would be to integrate it a bit better with the public Stack Overflow. There are many times where I end up using a more generic solution from the public site while there exists one that would be more helpful in the private one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Stack Overflow for Teams solving and how is that benefiting you?

It helps our teams document common problems and solutions as well as product-specific bugs.

It reduces the time our team needs to come up with solution and helps with asynchronous communication across many people.

This increases our velocity Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Stack Overflow for Teams?

What I like best about SO Teams is that we can have a place for a team for QA's that are private to the company. This is SO with 100% relevance for our team and very handy as documentation to figure out how this works. It's a very natural format. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
