Re: RoboInfo vs. RoboHelp?

[TechComm Dood <techcommdood -at- gmail -dot- com>]

RoboInfo might be the better choice among the two, and my guess is
that it's a bastardization of RoboHelp in many ways, just not equipped
to produce the same kind of output. I haven't used it, but that's what
the marketing literature says to me. I *have* used RoboHelp and I
think for what you want to do it will be the wrong tool.

If all you need is the search, I suggest AnswerWorks
<http://www.vantage-software-tech.com/content_pages/oemsol.html> or if
you have a ton of stuff out there you need to index for search, Google
Search Appliance <http://www.google.com/appliance/>.
