I messed with OneNote.....it actually is extremely awesome. I made a
tower info template in 1/2 an hour, I could start slapping in data in a
consistent format very easily. Dragging in pictures, text, videos, etc
is straightforward.
Then I hung up on two things....One was where is stuff actually stored.
It seemed like if I made something, it's stored in my Microsoft cloud
account, and if another guy made something it's stored in his Microsoft
cloud account. If one of us leaves the data needs to be persistent and
stay with the company somehow. There's probably a way to handle that,
but I didn't get as far as figuring that out.
2nd thing was versions. I had Office 2016, another guy had a different
edition. There were things I made and shared with him that looked all
wrong or non-existent when he viewed them. I think you'd have to
commit to Office365 so everybody would always be on the same rev. But
then I was kinda put off that the issue came up at all. Suppose I put
time into a great looking tower site doc with drawings and the whole 9
yards. Then I don't need to look at it again until 2025. Is it gonna
be all screwed up now in the 2025 revision of OneNote?
Convince me it's all gonna be ok and MSFT won't screw me up.

We have a wiki, however I'm looking to upgrade and provide
something a little more user friendly so all the non technical
folks can share documentation. I'm looking on prem open source
something that is NOT wordpress based. I've seen many CMS' out
there but none of them have the look and feel that we want. It
must be simple to add content such as howto's, guides, faqs etc.
All the documentation a medium sized company growing quickly into
a large company will need. I guess it would be considered a
KMS. It must have a good API.
One system that really piqued my interest is Document360 however
it isn't open source, nor on prem and its ungodly expensive. So
if you know something similar please advise. What do you use?
