When it comes to documenting processes and training your team, choosing the right tool is crucial. Whale and Document360 offer different approaches to achieving this goal.
Document360 is primarily designed as a knowledge base tool, focusing on creating, managing, and sharing information efficiently. While it excels in these areas, it does not have the specialized training functionalities that Whale offers, making Whale a more suitable choice for businesses looking to document processes and train their employees effectively.
