Description

Product documentation your users will love. GitBook has everything you need to create beautiful docs for your users — so you don’t have to build your own editing tools, CMS, website and more. You can just focus on writing great content. GitBook’s branch-based Git workflow encourages your whole team to collaborate by creating a branch, requesting a review, and merging when ready. It’s a flow your developers already know and love — and they can even edit your docs in their code editor using Git Sync. That’s all backed up by AI that lets your users find what they need fast, publishing settings that put you in control of who can access your docs, and internal documentation for your own team.

"Easy to use GitBook"

Use him to share my own knowledge notes to form a system, and he is free or cost-effective, so, I hope it can be better Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GitBook?

I hope to be able to globalize faster. It also makes it convenient and better access speed, and I hope that the functions can be improved, such as dragging and dropping pictures Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Incredible product knowledgebase software"

5/5

What do you like best about GitBook?

We were in-market for a product knowledgebase / documentation software that's easier to use than our technical documentation stack (eg. OpenAPI) and found that many companies we admire used Gitbook.

It's been an incredibly user-friendly tool that allows collaborative access across various teams. It is also easy to make and approve content edits with branched change requests, which has been a lifesaver. Finally, their powerful search feature has been very helpful for customers to self-serve information that was previously difficult to find. Lots to love, very little downside overall. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GitBook?

Honestly can't think of any. Product team has been very receptive to feedback/suggestions, and has been a pleasure to work with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Excellent experience with Gitbook"

4.5/5

What do you like best about GitBook?

We have used Gitbook in two large open-source projects - MOSIP and OpenG2P. We were looking for a tool where the content could be portable, written in a simple markdown format, and editable both on the tool and directly on GitHub. Further, we did not want to take the burden of hosting the documentation site. Gitbook provided us with all of these and much more. The latest version of Gitbook has rich features to embed various content types. The look and feel of the documentation is neat and modern.

Gitbook has supported our projects by issuing us a community license with a fee waiver. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
