Best for

Scribe: Enterprises that need desktop capture, auto-redaction, and admin controls

Not for

Budget-sensitive teams. Desktop capture and branded exports sit behind the paid tiers, and per-seat cost adds up fast.

Best for

Tango: Teams that want guides to live inside the software, not beside it

Not for

Pure documentation use. The product's center of gravity has shifted toward in-app guidance and adoption analytics.
