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?

Our knowledge base was pretty fragmented before. Most people relied on Slack to find solutions to a problem - and if they didn't find one from searching thousands of messages, they'd post in a Slack channel and wait for someone with the right expertise to respond. That puts a lot of pressure on certain people, and in a lot of cases, questions are answered multiple times over a year or two. Stack Overflow for Teams has optimized this all for us! Stack Overflow has always been great at providing excellent search results for a query - it's how most of us became professional engineers. That's no different here! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Stack Overflow for Teams?

The only thing that's been a downside is that we've had to change our habits to stop posting questions to Slack. Being able to direct questions to specific people is a big help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Fragmented knowledge, Slack was relied on (aside from a wiki that got stale pretty quickly and was hard to search). Stack Overflow really shines with search & being able to find solutions quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Stack Overflow for Teams?

data is unified in one spot, so it's simpler to know where to searching for and search is significantly more effective than different devices we were utilizing to enlist information.

Additionally every engineer is familiar with SO and this makes much simpler to new colleagues since there is essentially no expectation to absorb information to utilize the apparatus and since is so natural more individuals were urged to record information that was recently limited to one individual, since it functions admirably more individuals search there prior to asking on or slack channel.

The email with synopsis of what occurred in the week in the organization's SO is exceptionally useful as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Stack Overflow for Teams?

I figure it would be great if in the event that it were more straightforward to outwardly recognize while I'm looking on my organization's SO or while I'm looking in the general population SO.

One thing that you could work on would be the likelihood to choose the prior labels in the pursuit box, rather than counseling them in that menu on the left of the screen, it is hard to see that menu.

Not related with the item fundamentally however this inquiry here was confounding "What is your industry while utilizing this item?". Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I'm accustomed to utilizing StackOverflow for my product improvement needs, yet additionally the other Q&A destinations in the StackExchange family. Questions are not difficult to find and noting is boosted (gamified). What I like best is that it urges individuals to go to the stage because of its effortlessness, straightforwardness, and convenience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Stack Overflow for Teams?

It's helpful to have a quick tool for searching common or rare problems while working on a project. I don't need to stop my colleague from their work to help me, and I can speed up my productivity. With widespread problems, I can bookmark the questions and keep them accessible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Stack Overflow for Teams?

I think it does the job done. The only problem is to learn how to write a well-formed question with all the necessary tags to find it back later easily. But with some practice, you can do it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Working on a big project can be a mess if you don't track what can go wrong. In this way, we can help new colleagues face the problem for the first time, but it's also a good reminder when the issue comes out after a long time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Stack Overflow for Teams?

It brings SO questions into the public for everyone at my company to see in case they don't regularly check the site. I just use microsoft teams (desktop client) and an internet browser and I don't miss anything. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Stack Overflow for Teams?

The use case is a little redundant within my company (~500 people). Most people don't use stack overflow regularly and won't go out of their way to answer any random question that pops up. Most people will mute or ignore a bot that constantly spits out monotonous reminders for unanswered questions. Usually when you want to get a question answered you'll end up hunting down a specific person at the company and linking him/her to the question directly. There's not enough enforcement to get relevant people on the question. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Stack Overflow for Teams:

If in a large company, consider whether you can actually get people to use Stack Overflow and relevant people to care about the questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

For the time being it justifies the existence of Stack Overflow to the rest of the company and makes information widespread. However for the time being adoption is slow and most people keep conversations limited to teams chats and do not share their information into stack overflow.
