Easy Knowledge Base Migration

Whether you are migrating your knowledge base to a new site or simply restructuring, BetterDocs’ Import/Export feature simplifies the process. This ensures a smooth transition without the risk of losing valuable documentation.

Data Backup

With this feature, you can effortlessly back up important data related to your knowledge base. This ensures that even in unforeseen circumstances, your documentation remains secure and easily recoverable.

Saving Time & Resource

By streamlining the import/export process, BetterDocs helps you save time and resources that would otherwise be spent on manual data transfer. This efficiency allows you to focus on creating and improving content rather than managing technical aspects.
