FAQ
Can we separate content by region or service type?+
Yes. You can organise by categories or run separate knowledge bases for regions, brands, or service lines.
Will this help reduce inbound calls during outages?+
A searchable, up-to-date help centre typically reduces repetitive calls by answering the most common outage and billing questions.
Can we keep internal runbooks private while keeping public FAQs public?+
Yes. Use a public knowledge base for customers and a separate private knowledge base for internal procedures (plan-dependent).
