Hello,
We are considering moving from RoboHelp to AuthorIt for the single
sourcing and many other features. Has anyone done this? Or has anyone
moved from any product to AuthorIt?
1 - If so, how was the transition?
2 - Did you move previous projects from RoboHelp or other tools into
AuthorIt?
3 - Did you have any special training other than the tutorials?
4 - How long before you were comfortable in it?
5 - What are your thoughts of their TOC and Index?
6 - Does it meet your needs?
7 - Did you purchase it through a vendor in the USA or from New Zealand?
7 - Any advice, suggestions, etc.?
I am leaving out other information about why we want to switch
because I want to hear your personal feelings about it. What are your
experiences? How do YOU like it?
Thank You,
Kim Bourner
