What knowledge management tool do you use in small teams?


We're a small penetration testing company and sharing, structuring and accessing knowledge is a hassle. I'm trying various knowledge management tools for our small team (<10 people).

I've read good things about notion, obsidian and joplin.

What (technical) knowledge management tools is HN using for individuals and teams?

I am an advocate for Obsidian and have just been teaching my team how to use it, but I sync my own knowledge base to Wiki.JS via Git, although there are other and maybe better alternatives for that purpose -

notion is great. It gives you the opportunity to structure your knowledge, easily restructure as you grow.

It's also possible to do basic project management via kanban boards.

It might take a little to set everything up to your needs but I think it's a great tool for a small team.

Regarding the other comment: notion is basically just "a few webpages".

do you really need any tools? a few web pages can work wonders. fiddling with tools is a distraction.
