## Reviews

### "I truly miss AuthorIT" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *28 March 2019* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I used to love creating content with this tool. My company moved on to another tool to focus more on DITA, but the ease of use in AuthorIT is sorely missed. It is very easy to create content, edit it, and then publish it on-line or to Word or PDF format.
> 
> **Cons**: The only con to this software was the antiquated, clunky UI.

-----

### "Managing Documentations and Guidance" — 3.0/5

> **Keren** | *28 June 2018*
> 
> **Pros**: The product provides a nice mechanism, especially liked the option to reuse content which is major time-saving.
> 
> **Cons**: Which their upgrade to the newer version we became more dependent on their customer support services.
