Creating online help documentation is notoriously difficult. Ask any company that has created online help documentation, and you will hear just how complex the process is. For one, the software used to write and publish the help docs is expensive and hard use. To make it more difficult, it usually requires web development, IT, and a multitude of other resources to get the documentation online.

HelpIQ solves this by making it incredibly easy to create and manage a help documentation website without development or IT.

Leveraging the power of the cloud, companies can instantly create their own custom-branded help documentation website starting at $24 per month.

Some key features include: web-based (nothing to download or install), custom branding, robust content editor, easy-to-use interface, instant publishing and updates, CMS, multi-user support, cloud hosting, feedback and ratings, and context-sensitive help.

Founder Brett Ryckman spent the past 11 years as a designer setting up help documentation for his own clients, Walmart.com, Intuit, Wells Fargo, and Verizon. "Creating online help has always been very difficult. I have used desktop apps, blogs, forums, and wikis but always felt frustrated. They all seemed like overkill and had poor usability," said Ryckman. This frustration inspired him to create HelpIQ.
