Considered Both Products	Paligo Jan Bohman Senior Technical Writer in Research & Development at Devyser (Biotechnology, 51-200 employees) Chose Paligo I was working with 10+ CMS:es (list here is not possible choose them from) “all my active work life” and Paligo GUI is unique: No or very few systems of this complexity have a rational GUI. Paligo stands out here and is very user friendly! When it comes to style sheets and … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Paligo Simpler, more aesthetic and clean, easier to use, inherent design that molds the user based on section limitations, etc. Incentivized Helpful? Charles Dorsett Documentation Manager in Product Management at Rapyd (Financial Services, 501-1000 employees) Chose Paligo Web server is under our control Content editable via dashboard and also APi Full support of DocBook Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Paligo All the positives described in previous answers Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Paligo Paligo is way easier to use than Flare. Incentivized Helpful? Scott Wielenberg Sales Manager in Sales at MaxBotix (Electrical & Electronic Manufacturing, 11-50 employees) Chose Paligo We looked at two others. Paligo was the only one that was cloud-based and intuitive. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Paligo Paligo is better than both, by far. Confluence is only as good as its third-party addons and Robohelp isn't worth talking about. Incentivized Helpful? Benjamin Spendlove Lead Technical Writer in Engineering at Autonomous Solutions (Computer Software, 51-200 employees) Chose Paligo Paligo gives you the benefits of a fully integrated XML content database, making the whole package much easier to setup and use than a system using Oxygen. It's much easier to set up and far less expensive than Adobe's XML offerings. The cost is comparable to MadCap, but all … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Paligo I was not part of the selection process / did not evaluate other tools. I had previously been authoring my content in Google Suite or directly in our Learning Management System. Both of those were hells of information duplication. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Paligo No other Incentivized Helpful? Brad Baillio Compliance and Quality Manager in Quality Assurance at Autonomous Solutions, Inc. (ASI) (Mining & Metals, 51-200 employees) Chose Paligo We were using our own, custom management scheme - relying on tools like SharePoint to store and collaboratively edit. But we were lacking the reusability feature and content control features that Paligo provides. Incentivized Helpful? Kaspar Dahlqvist Technical Writer in Marketing at HMS Industrial Networks (Industrial Automation, 501-1000 employees) Chose Paligo Paligo is a different league. Cloud based for easy access and collaboration from anywhere. Great taxonomy and HTML5 features. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Paligo Compared to Author-It, Paligo is a godsend. It's so much more performant, the output quality is much higher, and the user experience is unmatched. Before we switched to Paligo, I had to spend multiple working days just fixing the broken output that Author-It has given me, … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Paligo We moved from Flare to Paligo. One of the main reasons was the fact that Paligo is a cloud product. Collaboration with anyone outside of our team was more difficult with Flare. Also, maintaining a server for Flare content was going to become an issue, and overall I felt the … Incentivized Helpful? Tamar Wisemon Documentation Manager in Product Management at Carbyne (Information Technology & Services, 201-500 employees) Chose Paligo They are both good documentation options, but the cloud-native capabilities and intuitive UI of Paligo, plus it's ability to produce excellent output for both PDF and HTML5 were the main reasons I chose Paligo. I am very satisfied with my choice. Incentivized Helpful? Andras Domok Technical Writer in Product Management at Commsignia (Automotive, 51-200 employees) Chose Paligo Affordable and easy to use. Several different tasks can be handled in the same tool - not just for editing. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Paligo We selected Paligo over the alternatives for a variety of reasons: It was cloud-based (usable on a Mac) It had the features we needed: Content reuse Variables Easy restructuring and maneuverability of content Incentivized Helpful? Rachel Cheyfitz she/her Director of Product Marketing in Product Management at LYTX (Computer Software, 201-500 employees) Chose Paligo Intuitive cloud-native tool based on XML that does true single-sourcing - not one of these other competitors has this unique combination. Incentivized Helpful? Rochelle Fisher Director of Knowledge and Technical Writing in Product Management at SentinelOne (Security & Investigations, 501-1000 employees) Chose Paligo Better Support than any of the others; Ability to migrate at cost (unlike AIT and Flare); Teamwork and centralized variables (unlike Word, Google Docs, FM); Diff and Revert (must-have feature); L10N features (better than all others). Incentivized Helpful? Paul LaBarbera Senior Technical Writer at Sizmek (Alternative Medicine, 1001-5000 employees) Chose Paligo Paligo is the only structured authoring tool that natively publishes to Zendesk. My team is forced to publish to Zendesk, so this was easy. Incentivized Helpful? Sarah Holdgrafer Manager of Self-Service and Content at ShipStation (Internet, 51-200 employees) Chose Paligo I trialed a version of Oxygen XML editor, but the fact that Paligo is cloud-based and integrates directly to Zendesk sold me, even though Oxygen XML is essentially the de facto standard for most structured authoring.
