"We are thrilled to work with MadCap Software in giving Blue Dots students an opportunity to use MadCap Flare to gain the essential skill set for modern content development and publishing. With Flare, our students will build valuable experience using the same software that technical communicators use on a global scale in the workplace today."
"We were rewriting all of our software in a cutting-edge environment with Visual Studio 2005 and using the Agile Development Model, so we wanted a cutting-edge Help authoring solution to provide our users with the best help possible, and that's Flare. Based on XML and using the latest technology, Flare has all the earmarks of being the rising star among contenders. We love that we can modify any topic, and with one button-click build new versions of HTML, print, and WebHelp. We also like Flare's use of cascading style sheets; formatting issues can be addressed in one location, and it flows through all of our projects and all of their builds."
"We are continually looking at how we can enhance our documentation to support the current and future needs of our customers and partners. With MadCap, we have a publishing solution provider that shares our forward-looking commitment to providing a state-of-the-art user experience."
"Flare’s responsive design feature is terrific. With a single output, we can deliver a properly proportioned view of our online Help regardless of the user’s device."
"When we got to look at the new features that are included in Flare 8 – mainly the HTML5 output that includes full topic URLs and frameless output, and the enhanced searching interface and functionality – we were sold and immediately renewed our maintenance plans. These new features and enhancements are going to be of great value to our customers and our Support team."
"We’ve found that MadCap Flare is the most suitable application for creating Help systems and has been developed with the user in mind. The fact that it is constantly being updated and improved really impresses us."
"Flare has really delivered on our expectations, enabling our students to accomplish a great deal in just one week, and then build incrementally on that knowledge over the next weeks."
"During my evaluation, I was able to convert a Robohelp project and produce working WebHelp documentation without reading any manuals or attending any training. The end product was visually appealing and the resulting markup was clean. It even offered the opportunity to convert inline formatting to css. Flare has a intuitive and productive interface."
"Since the inception of our Technical Writing program nine years ago, we have kept a close eye on the evolving field of content management, and MadCap Flare delivers the capabilities that we believe are critical to the content creation and publishing expertise that businesses demand. We are thrilled to join forces with MadCap Software in providing our students with innovative methods and tools to thrive in this pervasive field."
"The topic-based approach to authoring and content reuse enabled by Flare have allowed us to drastically cut down the time it takes to create manuals and get the information out to our assessors and customers."
"I just started using Flare in the last couple of days… it is such a benefit to be working with an application possessing a modern UI that is similar to what we are accustomed to in development tools. For me, supporting Help development has always been an add-on task that had to be done, but I can see how Flare is going to triple the productivity of the limited time I do have for help development. Thanks for an 'already' obviously great product!"
"We’re excited to incorporate Flare because it's a great example of a topic-based authoring system that is XML-driven and that helps to manage content for authors. With technical communicators increasingly responsible for delivering user assistance across a number of different platforms and in various media, it's important to have tools that are designed for this purpose."
"Flare was the clear choice, addressing all of our requirements and going beyond to help us consider new possibilities like mobile technology."
"Flare’s single-sourcing capabilities help us streamline our processes to rapidly deliver the information our customers need for any new product releases."
"Flare is the way of the future. The cost savings and benefits have drastically outweighed other tools. Now is the time to make the move."
