> **Fernando** | *November 9, 2022* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10

### "Facile à installer et léger" — 5.0/5

> **Vincent** | *December 13, 2023* | Internet | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: DokuWiki est très facile à installer, ne nécessite ni un serveur ultra-puissant ni une base de données MySql comme son plus grand concurrent MediaWiki. Il est très facile à administrer et de nombreuses extensions viennent combler ses lacunes.
> 
> **Cons**: DokuWiki a pour moins deux inconvénients : 
Par rapport à Confluence ou Notion, il est plus complexe à prendre en main. C'est une génération de produit en arrière.
Beaucoup d'extensions sont abandonnées et ne sont plus maintenues. Il est difficile de s'y retrouver.
> 
> DokuWiki est un logiciel que je recommande pour la mise en place de base documentaire de petite taille ou limitée à un petit périmètre.

### "Wiki self hosted" — 4.0/5

> **Ivan** | *November 17, 2020* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Dokuwiki allows you to create a wiki in your website and update it frequently.
> 
> **Cons**: Everything in that program looks a little dated.
> 
> I like dokuwiki , and I have set a website wiki there.
