Harmonic previously hosted their documentation on a legacy version of Confluence but faced a number of challenges:
Harmonic evaluated the tools on the market and chose Document360 as their knowledge base. The following features addressed their pain points:
Stuart Broad, Director, Harmonic Fund Services, says
With almost 30 writers on board, Document360’s workflow feature allows for a two-stage peer review process, so first-draft content does not have to be published temporarily before its corrected.
With their user documentation site working as a privately accessed portal, Harmonic has been getting positive feedback from their colleagues on the documentation site both from the reader’s and technical authors’ perspectives. The organization feels a lot more secure about the data on its site, because of the security & privacy controls in place.
Tania Terblanche, Business Analyst, at Harmonic Fund Services says
Document360’s beautiful user interface makes it so much easier to create content. The curated feature-set makes the process streamlined and simple.
Document360’s intuitive user interface and data security measures helped Harmonic establish an extensive internal user documentation site to help their team author and retrieve the information they needed quickly and efficiently.
