HelpServer online help and documentation solutions

 

HelpServer™, from 4.ST Belgium, is the web-based, collaborative authoring and single-sourcing content management system for online help and documentation.

HelpServer enables product and service providers to quickly and easily deliver role-based and customizable help documentation to their customers.

HelpServer is the ideal help authoring platform for organizations that need to tailor help documentation for different customers, provide up to date, online help or deliver help in multiple languages. HelpServer is exceptionally easy to use for content writers and lets dispersed help authoring teams easily contribute content over the web to a central server.

Giving people all the help they need

Traditional help delivery methods for software systems may be OK for shrink wrapped, consumer software but they are no longer satisfactory for applications involving business processes and workflows. In those workflows, the information provided by the manufacturer is only part of the information that customer personnel need to do their jobs. Business process workers need a comprehensive, just in time, learning support system that includes product information and tells them how the product is to be used in their business environment.

The traditional help delivery model forces business users to look elsewhere to find out how the product must be used within their work environment. The result is that users don't have the information they need to do their work effectively. At the very least, business users waste time looking for information in another system. At worst, the failure to easily find the information they need can result in serious mistakes.

You may have great product but, without the right documentation system, it may not be delivering its full value to your customers.

HelpServer's unique solution

HelpServer provides the solution to this problem and many others involving effective delivery of user assistance documentation. HelpServer's powerful, web based CMS, topic architecture, smartrules and security model lets suppliers and their customers collaborate to provide product users with a single point of access to all the information they need to do their work more effectively.

HelpServer enables product and service suppliers to slash the cost of content production and deliver absolutely up to date documentation to users where they need it, when they need it.

HelpServer is exceptionally easy to use for help authors so it is easy to support in customer environments.
