## Reviews

### "Great Investment" — 5.0/5

> **Jon** | *30 October 2019* | Market Research | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Software is very easy to get setup and we were able to launch our new resources page for our users within 10 days.
> 
> **Cons**: Lacks some flexibility in terms of supporting multiple products within our organization.  It can be worked around, just not ideal.
> 
> It is an amazing solution.  We support our resource page answering hundreds of user questions a day and reducing impact on our support team by hours a week.  We also are able to gather a lot of product feedback and route customer questions easily to the right support teams.

### "Straightforward Tool to Manage Support Documentation" — 5.0/5

> **Colleen** | *11 November 2019* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Virtually no training is involved to get up and running with Helpdocs. If you do have questions, they have their own robust Support docs as well as an extremely helpful team to help out.
> 
> **Cons**: Only con that comes to mind is when exporting documents, you can only export to a PDF or Excel file. Would love to be able to export to an editable format.
> 
> When comparing Helpdocs to the tool we were using before, we are much happier. It is significantly easier to use, less expensive and comes with great Customer Support.

### "An inexpensive tool for small internal teams" — 3.0/5

> **Mridula** | *30 July 2021* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: \* Provides hosting for your docs.
\* Gives html based WSYWYG editor.
\* Intuitive hence you need not train your writers  extensively.
> 
> **Cons**: This is NOT a CCMS neither can this replace confluence.
Not suitable for big teams with dynamic content.
In-product review is missing.
Tables are a nightmare.
The list function is not coded well.
They discourage you to access the html editor, but in many cases you have to tweak it to work with lists and tables.
Content reuse absent
Global variables absent.
You will not select this as a solution if you are an Information Architect.
> 
> The team is excellent and gives excellent support. This is a good option for small companies who do not have budget for a full fledged CCMS.

### "Avoid hundreds of customer support tickets\!" — 5.0/5

> **Eric** | *18 July 2017*
> 
> **Pros**: - Easy to setup
- Small team that really cares about customer feedback and is willing to go the extra mile
> 
> **Cons**: In a market with a lot of mediocre options, they stand out. However, it's a bit overpriced for what you're getting. Unfortunately, if you're looking for a high level of quality in your knowledge base then you don't have a lot of options right now.
