I had to deal with both products at my last company and maybe it was just how they set it up, but entering a bug into Jira was ridiculous. Finding anything was worse. It was probably the most user unfriendly piece of web software I've ever had to use.
Confluence? Ugh. The WYSIWYG editor was questionable at best. I had hours of fun cleaning up pages with big tables that were edited by multiple people. And seriously, a hierarchical wiki? Do you know what you get when you have a hierarchical wiki? A wiki that has almost no inner links because no one can remember what the path is to any document.
Again, it could have just been how they set it up, but I just feel like they threw every feature and the kitchen sink into that product in the name of "flexibility."
