What do you dislike about the product?
I think probably b/c it's built to be SO easy to use, it's a bit less flexible and grows feature-rich more slowly. Having said that, it's made strides recently!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
All-in-one documentation for products is what every tool in this market must offer today. ReadMe fits that description, enabling user guides, prod docs, help center layout, API docs and some customizability
Buggy Editor and Terrible Search
What do you like best about the product?
- Easy to get started
- Theme Customizations
- Theme Customizations
What do you dislike about the product?
- For a docs product it has a outrageously buggy editor. Yes I understand buidling WYSIWYG editor is hard but come on, all the menu UI elements keep erractically jumping around. Cannot indent or dendent things correctly
- Terrible Keyword based search in 2024. 9/10 times search results are incorrectly ranked.
- Does not support hosting arbitrary static HTML pages - E.g. generated from Python Sphinx or Mkdocs

Maintaing and Hosting Technical Docs of Product
Great support, great company, great for API docs, not the best for general user docs
What do you like best about the product?
The support is wonderful and I really enjoy how easy it is to add team members. The mascot is really enjoyable and in general it gets the job done. Easy to implement.
What do you dislike about the product?
Lack of collaboration tools, no content resuse tools, hard to work with images and no options to put inline etc. They're constantly improving their API doc tools but really little focus on general user doc needs despite many recommendations over the years. Some features that are entreprise only -- seems really unfair they don't offer the ad hoc. Global search and pdf download options should not be exclusive to enterprise because the cost is so different.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Public user documentation without the need for Github
ReadMe Product Experience
What do you like best about the product?
It's user interface and display is aesthetically nice and intuitive as it's easy to navigate through features.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think ReadMe has a lot of great features that are just gated for higher subscriptions -- too pricey.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Streamlining the company's internal API documents for devs and client's use.
Great product, easy to use...but can get expensive quick.
What do you like best about the product?
Start using day 1, very easy to implement.Also easy to customize to fit your needs and your goals.
What do you dislike about the product?
Built for small and medium sized companies. If you need additional segments, multiple sets of API documentaton it can get VERY EXPENSIVE.
Also, product support is non existent for lower tiers. Not a bad thing, but something to think about when selecting your package.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We had API documentation that was dissagregated and provided only informaiton about end points, little to know business value. Read.me helped us build an community around our API documetnaton for our technical users.
Easy and fast way to document our public API
What do you like best about the product?
I, as Product Manager, can manage the documentation without using developers' time
What do you dislike about the product?
Not so intuitive to create the home page
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed a fast and easy way to publish our public API documentation
Easy to use, intuitive docs for API providers
What do you like best about the product?
Love the sandbox environments we give users to test out our APIs right from our docs. They don't need to leave or go elsewhere, everything can happen right there in the documentation.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish they offered an area to test out websockets. Right now the area to test out APIs is top notch. But we started offering websockets and that requires users to leave the docs to test them
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Allowing users to see and engage is using our APIs to the fullest extent. ReadMe gives us a sandbox rigth within the docs to test out our endpoints.
Readme.com: The Best Tool for Writing Documentation
What do you like best about the product?
Readme.io provides a guided thought process on structuring your pages, giving you a simple way of building your API documentation with unlimited flexibility with the content editor. The Guides and Recipies are game changers for people consuming your documentation.
What do you dislike about the product?
I cant really think of anything that I dislike about Readme.com - especially compared to other platforms that we used before hand.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed a solution to manage our API documentation that included versioning of that API along with guides and re-usable elements so we didn't have to keep copy/pasting between documents.
Not just API docs, but a developers portal
What do you like best about the product?
If you're searching for an exceptional API documentation platform, look no further than Readme. This tool has transformed the way we handle API documentation, offering a seamless experience for end-users and developers alike.
Readme's clean interface and intuitive navigation made it perfect for our customers who are seeking smooth integration with APIs, letting them try it on the go and see opportunities.
Support for custom pages and sections saved us and our customers time. We covered FAQ, and our webhooks, as well as wrote guides for some most popular use cases.
Search is great and helps navigate our extensive API and saves time trying to find the endpoint you need.

What do you dislike about the product?
It's hard to pinpoint anything in particular. I'd say the main pain point would be the markdown editor. It's not a huge problem, but it's weird to see it in such a modern solution.
Another downside is that there's no built-in support for documenting webhooks. As for now, we have to use regular articles and it's definitely harder to maintain.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- API documentation in one place
- Possibility to add guides, articles and info about API
- We added our webhooks as articles to create documentation and examples around them.

Fantastic and easy to use documentation hub
What do you like best about the product?
ReadMe allowed us within days to move our existing file-based documentation to an online, searchable and beautiful portal. The process to create new articles/guides is especially simple. The use of markdown and their building blocks meant that we could very easily copy existing collateral and just add headers/pictures as we saw fit, and it just worked out of the box. No messing around with detailed formatting or layouting and the entire site is coherent.
What do you dislike about the product?
The available landing pages didn't really suit our needs as we had a large guide with quite a few categories, so we had to create a custom HTML one -- which become a quite technical task. The final product is good, but it's something that only a subset of our editors/users can understand.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
ReadMe solved our need to produce and distribute guides and sales material to both existing users and prospects. We went from a very oldschool PDF-based set of documentation to an online hub where users can much more easily digest the capabiilities of our software, experiment with our APIs and learn tips & tricks. It's also allowed us to maintain our documentation in real-time and to be much more agile when it comes to amending and updating it, which has significantly raised the quality of the content we have there.
