"Getting rid of knowledge silos and making a corporate culture shift"
What do you like best about Stack Overflow for Teams?
Stack overflow is a great tool to make knowledge reusable. It brings down knowledge silos within your organization since people from all over the company can ask and answer questions.
By surfacing the knowledge hidden in your employees' heads, you make it reusable - and that can save you a lot of time your employees might otherwise spend in meetings.
On top of this, Stack Overflow for Teams comes with integrations into MS Teams and Slack, which makes it an integration point for the various channels that we hide knowledge in today. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you dislike about Stack Overflow for Teams?
The UI can sometimes be a bit messy. The UI for asking, answering, commenting, and voting on questions is OK - these are the essential parts of the UI. The UIs for moderators, user profile management, and dashboards used to inspect statistics are sometimes messy, and things can be hard to find. Unfortunately, the help center is also not very prominently accessible, and although there is a host of helpful information in it, it's not easily accessible and not very well structured. For example, navigation between the help topics is not easily possible.
Also, the Stack Overflow instance is initially empty. Although a lot of the initial content needs to come from the company that deploys Stack Overflow, Stack Overflow could also provide some initial content. That mainly comprises best practice knowledge base articles and how-to's that people can read to get started quickly, e.g., how to ask questions correctly, answer them properly, what Stack should be used for, and whatnot.
