(Original )Information
What do you like best about Heretto?

Heretto's best asset is its people. The team truly understands structured content, the needs of a content manager, and the day-to-day responsibilities. And, when they don't know something, they have no problem asking. That kind of culture yields the best possible product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Heretto?

The only disadvantage to Heretto right now is that the URL changes when we move a topic in the CCMS structure. But, they have this as a top priority to fix. I have no doubt they will get it done. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Heretto solving and how is that benefiting you?

The biggest problem we had was that in our old system, our team in India had to pull all-nighters every Wednesday to successfully complete the weekly release publishing (not including content production - just publishing approved content). We set a goal to "eliminate publishing pajama parties." With Heretto, we now wrap up by 10pm in Bangalore, and we're working to bring publishing time from a couple of hours down to minutes. We can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel!

Heretto is also helping us improve our API Experience by unifying our Swagger content with the doc portal. And the doc portal itself has dramatically improved our customer experience with content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Heretto?

Heretto has a modern and clean UI and it is easy to learn the basics. The support from the Customer Success teams is great. There is a constantly evolving roadmap with new and useful features being added throughout the year. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Heretto?

It can feel a bit slow when viewing large complex maps. It isn't easy to output text (or Word) documents when you are using a more complex information architecture. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Heretto solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are now opening up Heretto to our subject experts to review and comment on our content before our editors start working on it. This will streamline and speed up our review process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Ren Taylor of Heretto

Thanks so much for your insight, Matthew! I love that you explicitly called out the roadmap because we're so excited to roll out a bunch of awesome stuff this year.

What do you like best about Heretto?

I like that all the documentations we have are organized and easy to track. All versions are traceable through every release that is made. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Heretto?

it is slow sometimes. I have to refresh the page to be able to edit a document. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Heretto solving and how is that benefiting you?

version control. I find that using heretto as a version control tool for documentations make everything easier to find. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Heretto?

The ease with which I can create the content structure of the site. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Heretto?

I sometimes find the strict adherence to the DITA style difficult to manage. For example, adding a note or warning inside a list of tasks can be a convoluted process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Heretto solving and how is that benefiting you?

Anecdotally, it helps our customer service ticket deflection. We currently do not have the tools to connect our customer service tickets to the portal usage, but again, anecdotally, we're seeing some ticket deflection. In cases where a ticket is created, our customer service often directs the customer to a page on our portal to resolve the issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Ren Taylor of Heretto

Thanks so much for your insight, Joe! We love to hear that your customer service team is able to direct customers to self-service content on your portal.

What do you like best about Heretto?

Cloud-based service; fairly intuitive UI; workable environment (meets my work demand and requirements); convenient publishing options; fairly easy-to-use drag-and-drop content sharing and management. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Heretto?

CSS needs customizing for specific needs—may be a knowledge concern only. FOP scenarios have issues in page breaking of tables; line breaking of long words especially in table cells—may need machine learning of hyphenation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Heretto solving and how is that benefiting you?

FOP scenarios to some extent; it is understandable that further custom preferences involve cost; I would just like clearer demarcations on SOW—what is and isn't included in Heretto's complementary support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Ren Taylor of Heretto

Thanks, Jason! We really appreciate the candid feedback, and we're so glad your overall experience has been positive! I'll be sure to let the team know about your CSS needs so they can dive into that a little deeper and help come up with a solution.
