Decision Trees Video Walkthrough:


What are decision trees ?

Decision trees are a simple way for you to present different answers, based off a series of answers to questions. Some people refer to it as 'troubleshooting'. 

How do decision trees work?

With Decision trees, you are able to ask a series of linked questions, in order to present different responses based off the answer to those questions.

Below is an example of decision tree. It took us 60 seconds to make it using the Helpjuice Decision Trees editor.

Maybe Helpjuice Tabs / Accordion is just fine. Decision trees might be an overkill, but it's pretty awesome. 
We think decision trees would be a great fit! Try it out!
Simple. You don't need a decision tree. Keep life simple. 

How do I create a decision tree?

It's super simple:

1. Go onto your Helpjuice Article that you want to create a decision tree. 

2) Click on the decision tree icon (screenshot)



3) You'll now see a decision tree, with your first question, and sample buttons/response prefilled. You can add as many buttons as you'd like, and clicking on one button will allow you to add children questions/buttons to it. 

4) Once done, just preview it in your knowledge base view!

Why is the knowledge base important?

With a knowledge base, you can allow your customers to self-help themselves, thus reducing your customer support by up to 60%. Furthermore, you can also have your team get instant answers to the questions they need without having to email themselves all using knowledge base software.

What is the purpose of a knowledge base?

The purpose of knowledge base software is to allow you to host your knowledge base/corporate wiki in one centralized 'hub'. Both your customers, and employees can now access information within seconds!
