    ClickHelp
    ClickHelp is great for both big and small documentation teams. The platform is not too complex to overwhelm a small team, and neither is it too simple for a well-advanced documentation team. Scale ClickHep depending on your documentation needs, and the features are simple to understand. I also appreciate the extensive documentation that is available for new users to ClickHelp. The ClickHelp knowledgebase provides answers to every scenario, use case, feature, and functionality. The ClickHelp support team is also very responsive.

    Well-suited:
    1. Building and keeping up to date modular content (blocks).
    2. Maintaining and updating large content library where meaning team members might be working on the same content but using the content in different context (e.g. learning and internal comms).
    3. Creating learning content by new/recently onboarded team members.
    4. Create simple learning courses with some level of interactively, medium interactivity (tabs, image maps, slider reveal images), create different types of knowledge checks/assessments from multiple choice to drag and drop activities); embed videos and other HTML elements .
    5. Integrate with LMS, apply SCORM rules etc
    6. Better to use in combination with other media creation tools like Vyond, Storyline. Some things can get tricky (compatibility).
    Less appropriate: 1. If you need to build highly interactive learning experience 2. When you don't have a team member you can dedicate specifically to customize templates in Xyleme for your organizational needs (looks, functionality etc.) or and to train team members on this software. You'd need someone on your team to collaborate with Xyleme closely to customize functions for your organization's needs. 3. When #2 and you want a modern/in trend looking output and not willing to compromise on what it looks and feels.

    Cons
    ClickHelp
    • The See Also element should be able to automatically update when a new topic is added. Currently, we have to manually remove and re-add the element to do that.
    • Ability to host image files externally (eg. S3, Dropbox), like it is done for videos. This will help save storage.
    • Image files from imported projects are always duplicated, perhaps a bug, but it needs to be looked into.

    • several features advertised as device agnostic or mobile friendly do not work properly on mobile
    • finicky in many ways, sometimes you need to tinker with details for to long to make things work properly
    • many UI solutions/elements that are not intuitive at all (even using the tool almost every day you need to make effort to remember how things are done)

    Alternatives Considered
    ClickHelp
    ClickHelp provides an extensive array of features compared to what we used previously. The WYSIWYG editor is so simple, yet brings with it really cool content editing elements. Publishing content is straightforward with ClickHelp. I can publish a part of a document for partial updates, or create a new publication. I get to host multiple versions of one product documentation based on the software versions we support. The analytics provided is also very insightful.

ClickHelp is designed to be easy for those with MS Word experience.Screenshot of an example of Funancial's portal branding. Their homepage features all of the main entry points of their documentation, split into several groups. Moreover, they hid TOC to make their user guide more minimalistic.Screenshot of the iiko portal, which is a good example of how to manage different types of documentation from a single place. They have various documentation types, ranging from product manuals (with different versions of software supported) to GDPR support guides and license agreements. But all these documents can be reached from one place.Screenshot of the reporting interface.Screenshot of the Settings menus.
