Hi all, My mission: create a user-friendly sales training manual.
I am wondering if anyone can offer some tips, or point me toward someone who can advise me on what software might be appropriate for this venture. We are thinking about a mostly online, easily revisable and hyperlinked format. I'm a writer familiar w/ MS Word, unfamiliar with much other software. Word has problems displaying images, as I'm sure you're aware. (A huge memory upgrade seems to have solved this problem, at least for now.) Might we consider RoboHelp as an authoring tool, or put it on an intranet within the company? Other options? MS Publisher seems too limited. Going to trial demo ExtremeEase, Madcap Flare, on the list to test Madcap Blaze, maybe test others I find. I'd appreciate your "hip-pocket" reviews of software you use. My goals for the manual include: ยท As user-friendly, easy to read & understand as possible Visual when possible Encourage hands-on learning Describe hands-on procedures when helpful Easy to revise - on the network Usable as a training manual and a reference Keep or link updated procedures thru a central source I'd appreciate your "hip-pocket" reviews of software you use. Thanks for any help you can offer!
