Review on DokuWiki by James Wonsley

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Easy and simple software that does exactly what expected

It's very user friendly, I can easily edit my web pages by editing them in another page (e2). The support team is also great they are always there if you need it! Nothing so far but maybe could be improved for more complex tasks like adding attachments or images from remote sources (s3 etc.). If your looking into an easy way of creating content with little effort this would work well as most people dont know how to navigate wordpress/blogger properly anyway which leaves me wondering why we have such platforms? We had no issues when using dokuwiki at first our only problem was setting things up correctly. So now its set up we haven;t been able to find anything wrong since then other than not being too familiar yet (but thats because i havent used any form online before either) But overall everything works fine just remember all websites go down occasionally even google sometimes haha :) Our biggest issue has been keeping records about what projects were done each month & Very easy to set up, very flexible in terms of features, supports many different extensions (including custom ones). Good integration with other projects like Joomla! or WordPress makes it even more powerful. Some bugs are still present but I am sure these will be fixed soon by the development team. It's free for public repositories as well as commercial products; no installation required. The fact you can host your wiki locally, which speeds up page loads, is also nice.
