# Is Stack Overflow for Teams (now Stack Internal) worth it for an engineering team, or does a lighter tool like Tettra do the job?

Question for the engineering managers and the reviewers who evaluate their tooling. Is Stack Overflow for Teams, now Stack Internal, actually worth it for an engineering team, or does a lighter tool like Tettra do the job for less?

To be clear on what's being compared: Stack Internal (4.5/5, 790+ reviews) is Stack Overflow's private version, renamed and now pitched as a knowledge layer that keeps enterprise answers accurate and feeds them to copilots. Tettra (4.7/5, 160+ reviews) is a small knowledge base built to answer repeat questions inside Slack. Both are in the Q&A Platforms category on G2, both capture questions and keep answers searchable, both integrate with Slack.

Where each pulls ahead:

Stack Internal wins when engineers answer engineers. Voting (0.92), Reputation (0.89) and Q&A (0.94) scores reflect the public Stack Overflow model: the best answer rises, the asker marks it accepted, and duplicates get closed. Reviewers are mostly software engineers at mid-size and small companies. It's built for code-level questions with several plausible answers.
Tettra wins when the question has one right answer and someone has to own it. Searchable (0.96) and Knowledge Integrations (0.94) are its high scores, and the verification workflow assigns a page owner and flags it when it goes stale. Free up to 10 users, priced per user after. It's built for process and ops questions from support, marketing and small engineering teams.

Simplest way to decide: count your questions for a week. If most are "how does this codebase work" with three engineers disagreeing, Stack Internal. If most are "what's our deploy process" with one correct answer, Tettra.

For anyone who's run either past the first year, which one still had questions being asked in month twelve, and is there a third option worth adding here?

I’d also add Guru to the comparison for teams that want lightweight knowledge capture with stronger verification and workflow support.</p> ##### Comment Metadata - Posted at: 27 days ago - Author title: Marketer ## Related discussions - [How well does Trello scale into a larger team?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/1-how-well-does-trello-scale-into-a-larger-team) - Posted at: over 13 years ago - Comments: 6 - [Can we please add a new section](https://www.g2.com/discussions/2-can-we-please-add-a-new-section) - Posted at: over 13 years ago - Comments: 0 - [Quantifiable benefits from implementing your CRM](https://www.g2.com/discussions/quantifiable-benefits-from-implementing-your-crm) - Posted at: over 13 years ago - Comments: 4
