Ok, but still long way to go...

Overall, it does what it says it'll do, but there are some serious improvements that I'd like to see, still not happening after a long time of waiting/hoping

1. Very rigid way to structure the documents, difficult to organize elements freely, as a result, the output is not as good as it could be

2. No way to customize the landing pages / pop-ups properly, layout, etc. At least different template designs would be nice, if not custom editor

3. Way of styling the resource page is unnecessarily complicated, it could be done in a much simpler way, not several layers of editing options. Not extremely intuitive if I compare it with other tools

4. If hosted on our own subdomain, the subdomain displays the latest doc - we should be given a way to customize this (e.g. add default doc or make it a library, hide with PW, or anything we want)

5. No roadmap - I don't see why everyone else is able to publish it but they are so secretive about it, doesn't make sense. I think 99% of SaaS businesses today publish their roadmap (especially true for AS)

If I could, my score would be 2.5/5... as I said, does what it says, in a kind of a crude way, given how long they've been around (years) with at least 2 LTDs to my knowledge, I'd expect much more at this stage. Since my purchase not much has changed (~5 months).
