ProProfs Knowledge Base is ideal for businesses that want to improve their customer support process, make agents more knowledgeable and productive, induct new employees, or manage their internal business knowledge. We used it mainly for our customer support function, and we are satisfied with the performance. The best part is it scales as a team or business grows. When we started using this tool, we had a support team of 10 members, and now it has expanded to 25. But the knowledge base is still working as efficiently as before. It has the capability to accommodate a large amount of data with ease.

Web Manuals
Formating, linking, compliance, and customized distribution. It is easy to navigate and review changes. Hospitality Management, Airlines crews, individual management systems, etc. Standardization of documents; compliance checklists easily available. If you are limited on office/ management staff and/or do not have a single base for your flight crews, Web Manuals would be the tool for you.

  • Certain automated modules require validation by the user when they update themselves, it would be better if this is automated.
  • Publishing a manual as PDF can take several minutes to process, this processing time could be improved.
  • Possible compatibility issues with new IOS versions

Usability
ProProfs
Using this tool is a no-brainer, as we said before. Its features are simple yet powerful. Besides, the product’s self-help documentation is also great. It has got some great videos on specific features and use cases. Those were of real help in the initial few days.

Whenever we had any issues while using the product or understanding a feature, its support team was always available. They helped us get familiar with the product and make the most of it in the initial few days itself. Its support team was literally a phone call or a message away. Very supportive and available 24x7.

We found ProProfs Knowledge Base more user-friendly and well-designed than the other similar tools we tried in the past. It also offers better integrations with software like Google Analytics, Zendesk, Google Translate, Freshdesk, Wufoo, and many others. That’s what gave this tool an edge over others. We can integrate it with any tool we want and expand its capabilities to gain better results.
