Re: Madcap Flare or Sphinx

I appreciate your replies. Thank you.

I believe I may have found a suitable OS agnostic review tool, called Crocodoc.

Madcap Flare or Sphinx

Hello all,

I just started a job where I must make a decision about the documentation tool to use. My primary experience is with Word, Framemaker, and InDesign. There is a little bit of a push for Sphinx... not because it is free but because the content I produce is editable by other collaborators ...
