Easy to use, stellar customer support
Reviewed on 2018/02/21
Pros
We kicked the tires on 5 knowledge base platforms before selecting KnowledgeOwl. The selection was driven by two must-haves: 1) open APIs, and 2) ability to customize the CSS to meet our brand guidelines. After we made the leap, we were pleasantly surprised by the exceptional customer service. (Thank you!)

Great service, great functionality
Reviewed on 2017/09/05
Pros
Not only does the software provide flexibility, customization, functionality, and efficiency, the people behind the software are just as great. They are incredibly responsive to any organizational or technical need, but equally as open to develop new and unique features specific to your use.
Cons
If I HAD to choose, I would say the lack of detailed reporting in the backend. There's only topical understanding of user behavior of your knowledge base(s). However, Knowledge Owl is more than happy to help you install Google Analytics on your knowledge base for you.
Response from KnowledgeOwl

The best tech writing tool
Reviewed on 2018/11/07
Pros
For ease of use, this is the best knowledge base software I have used. I love how I can publish information to our clients instantly. But best of all, I have never had better customer service from anyone. The Knowledge Owl team are always there to help.
Cons
Some HTML and CSS skills are needed to get the exact look you are after (but their support team are prompt and incredibly helpful).

We looked at many vendors before we evaluated Knowledge Owl, and I can't say enough about our experience working with the Knowledge Owl Team. From day one, the team continues to amaze me with the level of service they provide. They worked closely with us throughout the setup and implementation phase of our Help Center launch and continue to assist with our very custom and individual needs. Kudos to the entire team for always being responsive and helpful, but special thanks to the Knowledge Goddess / Chief Executive Owl, for leading the team.
Pros
Software out of the box is easy to use and customize and Knowledge Owl's documentation is thorough and nicely organized.
Cons
I can't think of anything that stands out as a con.
Response from KnowledgeOwl
Yay! Thanks so much for the awesome review!
