Hey Dave, long time no talk.

I can very much agree with both your points.

The first place I used Confluence/JIRA because they were recommended by a new employee or perhaps a friend of someone at Atlassian, and getting the $10 trial licences.

Since then I've moved jobs several times, and those two products in particular have been the baseline comparison for whatever tools are in place.

The biggest stumbling block I find is often the licensing - So many times managers have been reluctant to fork out for it.
