What do you like best about Wiki.js?

The best "feature" for me is the ability to self-host the software to maximize the security of my clients' confidential data. Composing pages using Markdown helps keep formatting consistent and less time-consuming. The software has a good variety of customization options and supports integrations with other software used internally. Another must-have is dark mode, which Wiki.js has done well. Being an open-source product, submitting bug fixes and requesting features is easy - so is adding features on your own. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Wiki.js?

There are a few UI quirks that take getting used to, although improvements and features are being added from time to time that minimizes these relatively minor issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Wiki.js:

Use the containerized version to make the initial setup painless. This also makes upgrades easy to roll back if something goes wrong. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Wiki.js solving and how is that benefiting you?

Wiki.js serves as a central repository for internal processes, hardware/software documentation, and a reference for the configuration of solutions we provide for our clients. Since Wiki.js supports multiple authentication methods, we can also allow clients to access portions of the site as required. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
