    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.

    In our company, we host our benefit articles based on country on our Zendesk Guide. However, these articles should not be seen by employees that are outside their respective article country. For example, an employee that is based in Thailand shouldn't be seeing Malaysia benefits article as employees might compared benefits. With Zendesk Guide, the system allow us to set the configuration of the article so it is only visible Thailand-based employees, and for Malaysia article, only Malaysia-based employees

    • They give us ability to control the whole frontend of the Communities by giving us access to manipulate HTML (in HBS file), CSS and JS
    • They give handlebars templating engine in backend which helps us to show various listing rendered through server side without having need to implement client side rendering of the listing and features.
    • They provide us dynamic content fields, which can be useful for mapping categories or storing category and topic IDs so we don't need to hard code IDs in Sandbox and Production separately.

    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.

    The support is good but can sometime be frustrating to get a quick answer. We end up being sent articles that don't answer the question and then we have to go back and try again

    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.

    It is an attribute of Zendesk that allows for easy over the phone communication between agents and customers. It is more personal and allows for better productivity. Phone support from anywhere with reliable internet connection which is essential to call center communication whether in the office or in the home of the agent.

    ScreenShots

    ClickHelp Screenshots

    Screenshot of how the Projects page looks. Projects, publications, portal settings, reports and the like are within reach.Screenshot of how the design mode looks when writing documentation. 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.
