Create Better Technical Documentation and Online Help
Take Advantage of Advanced Authoring and Publishing Capabilities
Topic-based authoring and single-source publishing simplify the creation and delivery of technical documentation, online Help websites, user manuals and other support portals. Ease of use combined with unmatched versatility makes Flare the best technical writing software for authoring and publishing, making it the leading choice for any technical writing or documentation team.
Flare’s topic-based authoring has saved us hundreds of hours per year. We can now get new content out to production within hours of coming up with an idea simply by copying and pasting the TOCs and mixing in existing content.

Improve User Experience with Self-Service Support and Online Help Portals
Reduce support calls by providing your customers with great user documentation. Modern, user-friendly support portals and websites provide content that is easily searchable and help deliver superior content experiences. Through the use of micro content and other advanced search capabilities, empower your users to find the answers they need quickly, freeing up your technical support team to handle only the most complicated issues.
Our support team is seeing anywhere from a 10 percent to 30 percent drop in ‘how-to’ calls, which suggests that customers find it easier to follow the Help instructions.

Control the Look and Feel of Your Content with Modern Web and Print Design
Snippets, conditional tags, and CSS enable content developers to customize and format content for different audiences, countries and products, as well as control the look and feel of your content to match brand guidelines. And by single-sourcing your content, you can create a variety of output formats, including printed manuals, electronic user guides, interactive content for a mobile device, online documentation, or more. Multiple versions of the same source content or document sets can be developed with speed and ease.
With the TOC and CSS features in Flare, we can experiment on creating the page we want, and we are constantly republishing when we make little changes. The flexibility Flare gives us to arrange content quickly is a huge bonus.
