Unless you have the time and effort to do this on your own, Stonly is a fantastic tool that helped us communicate with our customers without needing to think about it for too long. It is flexible where needed and we noticed that it is constantly improving as time goes on. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to provide their user's more guidance on how to use their applications or free up some time from the developer's workload.

Just from a personal viewpoint, I feel that the ease of use with Answerbase is amazing and with first class customer service support team, that could not be more friendlier and helpful. The decision was easy and they designed specific requirements that met our needs. It has really complemented our workforce and saved time.

Intercom and Gist are more focused on Live chat, but the knowledge base is part of their offerings. I love that Stonly is really fleshed out and offers deep features built around the customer education experience.
