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?

We can share the knowledge internally with different teams the same way they used to see it and search for it in public Stackoverflow. Also, we maintain the knowledge up to date using the same proven method of SO Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Stack Overflow for Teams?

Nothing specific I don't like, except that it is not so easy to have attachments for external files... providing a way to attach files will be beneficial even if we provide a hosting for the file ourselves but to make it easy to attach them from SO UI Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Internal Knowledge sharing for different teams in an easy, familiar way and keeping this knowledge maintained and up to date by all people contributes to its validity and crispiness. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Stack Overflow for Teams?

I'm used to leveraging not just StackOverflow for my software development needs, but also the other Q&A sites in the StackExchange family. Questions are easy to discover and answering is incentivized (gamified). What I like best is that it encourages people to go to the platform due to its simplicity, straightforwardness, and ease of use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Stack Overflow for Teams?

If there's anything I don't like, it's that the policing and moderation of what's appropriate content in the StackOverflow for Teams instance (what must go to Teams, what must go to the public StackOverflow, what can stay in Slack) will take a lot of time to educate everyone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

There is a lot of proprietary information that is only relevant to our organization. StackOverflow for Teams covers the internal Q&A needs completely. Frankly, the organization is still learning to fully leverage it, so the benefits might not be realized by everyone just yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Stack Overflow for Teams?

I like that information is available across the entire team/company so that a single person/group of people doesn't have to repeatedly answer the same question or create an official document. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Stack Overflow for Teams?

I don't like the fact that it takes a while to be useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Stack Overflow for Teams is solving the issue of useful questions and answers being hidden away in different slack channels and threads. It is a good intermediate between Slack and Confluence. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Stack Overflow for Teams?

I like that you can see the history of the process of change and it's easy to search my questions. I don't think I use any tools to use this software, I think it's better than using Confluence. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Stack Overflow for Teams?

It would be nice to transfer old notes from confluence or sm word easily into Stack Overflow, if we were to migrate over like fully. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Stack Overflow for Teams:

I'm pretty sure a lot of the people at least in NY and SF uses Stack Overflow, I think it's a great tool to use for internal documentation as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We're just trying to find a quick answer to our questions, sometimes when you work on other parts of the company, you lose base of the other products you've previously worked on, so it's a quick way to find those answers/procedures here. If we need to update it, you can see how it's updated and compare easily how it was before. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Stack Overflow for Teams?

Stack Overflow's ability to search questions & identify similar questions is immensely helpful for reducing redundant questions. I love the ability to ask specific coworkers and still have the answer remain publicly visible. I also love that our SO is integrated with Slack so that questions posted on the website also notify the relevant people in Slack. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Stack Overflow for Teams?

Nothing so far. The whole experience has been positive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

The main problem we are solving is having one SME who constantly gets asked the same questions. Maybe they can make an FAQ, but then we'd end up with a dozen different FAQs for different subjects. Stack Overflow for Teams allows us to have a consolidated, searchable FAQ for every subject. And it's already reduced volume of repeated questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Stack Overflow for Teams?

It is incredibly helpful to be able to search for common questions and their (accepted) solutions. We use a variety of software tools (LaTeX, Python, XML, PSTricks, TikZ) many of which have our own in-house modules and approaches to get them working well together. We'd never be able to find answers to some of our Q&A documentation anywhere else on the web and organising them in any other way is just tedious in comparison. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Stack Overflow for Teams?

Searching can sometimes leave a little bit to be desired - I might be wrong, but it seems like the onus is on the question writer to include lots of possible search terms or phrases in the title of the question. The bodies of the question or the answers don't seem to influence the search results. For answering your question, the upvoting and accepting can also feel a bit contrived, but perhaps that's me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Stack Overflow for Teams:

If your team already make substantial use of regular Stack Overflow in their work, then this is a really great option for internal documentation and collaboration and I wouldn't even look elsewhere. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

SO for Teams ensures that we don't lose valuable learnings regarding how our own product and processes work. We can keep onboarding data in one place, and we can more easily share knowledge, business-specific expertise, and collaborate with each other. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Stack Overflow for Teams?

Everything good about stack overflow that we can use in a private setting for business or internally. It's fairly easy to manage the team too, the administration tools are pretty simple and starightforward Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Stack Overflow for Teams?

It's pretty annoying if you already use StackOverflow personally. In my case, I want to have access to the private StackOverflow while still logging in using my business account. I don't want to join my organisation using my account but I still need access to both my personal and business account frequently, I need to log out and then log in again using a different account to do that. Would be great if there's a way to login into both accounts at the same time and the ability to switch accounts easily Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Stack Overflow for Teams:

If you're looking for a knowledge base alternative and are too lazy or don't have time to write. Just use StackOverflow, Its is easier to build knowledge-based on Q&A rather than writing documentation from 0 Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

At our organisation, we don't have complete documentation. Similar questions are asked and answered from time to time, especially when onboarding. a private StackOverflow solve this problem without any of us need to write comprehensive documentation, we can just answer 1 question and refer to it the next time another person needs it.
