Ask HN: What intranet to keep a directory, wiki & files for a growing startup?

Our team is growing (heading towards the 30+ headcount) and I am trying to find the right tool for an intranet, as we are opening new offices around the world.

What I want is simply: A directory of people to know who does what, as well as a wiki and simple project management.

Asana and trello are in use, but they don't do the whole wiki/directory part, and we use insightly for our CRM and heavily Google drive/dropbox, which would be nice to integrate. I've poked around Jira, Podio & co, but not convinced yet.

What do you use?

Thanks!

    We're using Evernote for business, and it's awesome. It integrates with most software out of the box (Insightly and dropbox), or through IFTTT (Google drive). If it's not on IFTTT you can always use Zapier (for Trello, for instance).

    In my experience, Basecamp is way more user-friendly than a WiKi for keeping important information

    Sounds more like Confluence than JIRA.
