Yes, we have one.

How do you use it? Do you find it beneficial?

I'm creating one for my department, and I wish we would have had one a long time ago. One it's finished, we can eliminate a ton of our files on the server (we have so many and it's so hard to find what you need -- my boss is so bad about organization!).

The one we use is JSPWiki. I like it thus far. The only downfall (depending on your preferences) with this particular one is that it isn't tremendously user-friendly when creating/editing pages. Once you get used to it, it's not a problem, but there's nothing to be seen for WYSIWYG help. I didn't mind, but I'd imagine that some people would feel lost without formatting buttons.

We use the wiki for licensing documentation, computer imaging checklists, installation procedures, departmental policies, special systems (and users) support, and as a general knowledge base.

We have a wiki here as well, though I don't know a ton of detail about the back end of it... very easy to use, much easier than HTML, but it isn't a slick gui.

As for usefulness, it is AWESOME for us, as our industry and product offerings changes constantly.
