Hi @peter Smith and welcome to the Community.

I can tell you why I use Confluence for product documentation.

  • easy to manage
  • great learning curve for both the users and the admins
  • very intuitive
  • page edit history (reversible, comparable, etc.)
  • WYSIWYG text and structure editor
  • pure and simple text editor with a lot of content tools (macros)
  • fast and reliable
  • great user and permission management
  • seamless and in-depth Jira integration
  • APPS. To me, Confluence is both a tool and a platform which can be greatly expanded by apps. It's like a smartphone. There is an app for that.
  • SAML SSO support

I had an intern on my team to migrate 500 pages using crude copy/paste method from one doc site to Confluence. Not a tech writer but a budding UX/UI student, he never used Confluence before yet he was able to use make and execute complex content decisions almost as a seasoned pro.
