What do you like best about Heretto?

Heretto is a great application for writing teams that do not have a lot of DITA or structured authoring experience. The user interface is intuitive and the product documentation is very useful for setting up features. Our writing team picked up the concept very fast and I think that is in part from the easy-to-use interface. The support team and customer success teams are very responsive and helped us quickly solve problems during our migration and now. We never have to wait long for help! The user interface is so easy that we provide reviewer access to subject matter experts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Heretto?

We have had several Customer Success Managers since our onboarding. But, Heretto was always quick to get someone in place. We would also like to see a more robust translation module, but Heretto is very transparent about their roadmap improvements for translation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We have been able to take long documents and turn them into quick-to-find chunks of content. End-to-end workflow content is more organized and easier to understand. We have increased the quality of our documentation by removing duplicate content and implementing reuse. No more building separate knowledge centers for each product!

What do you like best about Heretto?

I love that Heretto functions both as an authoring tool and CCMS. What I really appreciate is that we have specialized content and Heretto has gone above and beyond to develop special tools to help us expand and use the content! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Heretto?

Heretto is different from the other CCMSs I used previously so there was somewhat of a learning curve as it works a bit differently. I think perhaps documentation about how to use the product and our specialized tools could be improved a bit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

They helped us solve structuring our content in a way that is better for reuse and specialized API endpoints. The end result is greater productivity; business performance has increased. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Heretto?

The support! The team is so knowledgeable and so fast! I've used many SASS products and I've never felt more confident in a support team with the folks supporting our new CCMS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Heretto?

It's not a fully-fledged Content Ops platform... yet. Flexibility with workflows needs some expansion and the limits on a publishing scenario with Docusaurus leave something to be desired. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Heretto:

Think through the use of the tool as a whole and not just as an authoring platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

The ability to reuse content is huge for us! A unified searchable taxonomy has also allowed us to organize and find our content rapidly. But the main thing that Heretto does is allows us to give our authors, who are inexperienced with DITA, the ability to write in a unified system W/O needing to learn a profoundly robust program like Oxygen XML.
