HelpKit - a better alternative
While Document360 is nice, there are surely many caveats, as mentioned above, which may be a deal breaker for many.
HelpKit is an alternative to Document360 that also comes with a knowledge base first approach that uses your existing help docs and guides to answer generic questions while the others get routed either to your inbox or to the supported ticketing software such as HubSpot.
