It powers Wikipedia so it is secure and scalable. > > **Cons**: It is hard to use for most people, and the wiki structure needs to be learned for many. ----- ### "Great open source option for documentation and process management" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *24 August 2022* | Internet | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is built on a very simple and popular stack known as LAMPhp and practically anyone in the IT area with internet knowledge will find it easy to install and manage the application. > > **Cons**: Despite being simple and straightforward in the end, it was not without maintenance processes such as updating and backup, which ended up taking a certain amount of time from the IT team. > > Despite the maintenance work it was even more refreshing to keep the tool in-house and on-premise. It made employees realize the importance of the tool, generating greater involvement of the team as a whole. The tool allowed us to better understand our day-to-day and generate more efficient and dynamic processes. ----- ### "Wiki for everyone" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *4 November 2021* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: The ability to just spin up a wiki for free that is opened source is extremely beneficial for these trying times. > > **Cons**: The management and it being an open sourced product will introduce un expected changes or overhead. Even though it is expected it still exists. > > My overall experience has been great. Especially with smaller teams who need to manage documentation with smaller or no budgets. Having this available is huge for them. ----- ### "My Wiki review" — 5.0/5 > **Zoltan** | *30 December 2024* | Telecommunications | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I worked 5+ years with MW. It has a clean interface, fast appearance, with good transparency. > > **Cons**: The editor may seem a bit complicated at first glance, but it's easy to learn. ----- ### "A Great Solution For Knowledge Management" — 5.0/5 > **Lilian** | *6 June 2024* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like the knowledge management features It handles content management well and also comes with collaboration capabilities. > > **Cons**: No negative issues with MediaWiki.
