Plus you can send messages directly to your coworkers so you don't even have to leave the app to communicate.ĭropbox Paper is an interesting app that can help small groups of colleagues easily work together. Yes exactly I think most people can agree that Dropbox paper has really become quite advanced with a lot of great features but the main thing missing from it is the Apple Pencil integration. Anyone on the team can see all the changes made in real time. OMG yes, having the ablity to take hand written notes on the dropbox paper app would be ssssooooo incredibly helpful for so many reasons.

Sharing documents with other users is really easy. Within a document you can write, change the text formats, add images, quote other users, insert videos, and ultimately, do just about anything you could want to do with a tool like this. Basically, it's a specially designed tool to let teams work together online in real time.įrom the main interface in Dropbox Paper you can quickly create new documents. While for the ‘communication’ aspect, Hipchat has gotten good enough / better competitors in Slack, the new MS Teams and the newer FB Workspace, Confluence has not had serious competition.Dropbox Paper is an app that lets you work online with text documents, collaborating with multiple users to edit the same document simultaneously. I have not seen a worthy competitor to it yet and my first thought on reading this article was that. What I have written above might indicate I am a Confluence fan boy, which I am not. It doesn’t matter if you don’t have enough space on your local drive.” - This problem is for a minority of users and do not think is a needle mover for most. It routes around these problems by making all the files in your group Dropbox, no matter how gigantic it gets, accessible through your computer’s file-system interface. When it goes to Business, it is always PPT/DOC. In all places I have seen, Confluence is only between Product/Engineering. If Paper can indeed bridge this divide, nothing like it. Meanwhile, businesspeople are typically more comfortable working in Word and Excel and Sharepoint - but technical people often disdain them for their overhead and rigidity.” - Great thing. But non-engineers have a hard time with them. In many organizations, Dropbox included, engineers and product people have gravitated toward putting all their notes and documentation on wikis - those venerable programs (Wikipedia is built on one) that let users easily build a link-heavy website - because they’re ad hoc and easy to start. You can chat all you want, and of course you will, but sooner or later you actually have to do your work, whatever it may be.” - 100% agree with this “Slack and similar messaging platforms aim to keep teams on a similar track, too, and plenty of businesses swear by them.Wonder why/how they did not see Confluence as competition “No one’s going to stop using Excel because they use Paper.” - Great that the team understands this. “We know that 100 percent of our customers are going to be either an Office 365 customer or a Google Apps customer,” Houston says.“Any document can flip into a presentation mode that parcels it out in slide-size chunks” - This looks neat.Your teammates can drop in comments and feedback” - Confluence does these “You can write text connecting all these items you’re embedding.Regarding ‘Slack’, I wonder how is that related, that is a pure ‘communication’ channel Though Confluence exists, it lacks the polish of Medium. “A simplified browser-based document editor with comments - as if Microsoft Office or Google Docs got reincarnated as the love-child of Medium and Slack” - Neat.Here are some notable insights from the article and my thoughts on them: But unfortunately, there is not even a mention of Confluence in it (There are mentions of Wikis but Confluence is much more than that, no?!) The title of the article embedded above should have (well, IMO) been ‘Dropbox invading Altassian Confluence’s territory’.
