   It helps us a lot

   I like ClickHelp as we (my team) created a huge database with this tool and all the content is reusable. That makes the work simpler. We leave comments right inside the topic like in Google Docs. That is perfect! Nothing gets lost. The tool is cloud-based. So, we can work from any place. It happens that I make corrections during my weekend from home. It saves me from the necessity rush to the office. The portal is protected by a password. You may give access to your portal to your colleagues or readers and their permissions will be different. For us, the main advantage is that everything is in order and under control now.

   Great tool!

   I started to use ClickHelp a couple of years ago. So far it is the only service that gives me the ability to create several manuals from one and the same source. I create the initial document that contains all the information and then generate different outputs hiding and showing some parts of the document. I do not have to copy and paste the passages all the time. One more thing I love is the branding. As a freelancer, I am often engaged in several projects. So I have to take care of the consistency and corporate identity of my documentation for each project. Each company has its own rules. For ClickHelp it is not a problem. What I enjoy as well is that when something goes wrong I can get back to the exact version of the document that I need. All the changes are saved in the version history.

   🏁 Competitors: Paligo

   👍 Pros:    Reliable|Feature rich|Convenient|Good price
