Download a script and download a theme for it? It works pretty well for things like WordPress and phpBB. And it's not like there aren't a lot of options out there. That doesn't seem that complicated, especially not with basic shared hosting (which a company will likely have if they have any form of web presence whatsoever). I also don't like the move towards trying to get 'average' users to walled gardens and managed solutions, since it usually ends up being about nickle and diming them.

Are there free, actively managed, themeable FAQ scripts out there that would compete with this? > I also don't like the move towards trying to get 'average' users to walled gardens and managed solutions, since it usually ends up being about nickle and diming them. I wouldn't use this particular product, but other users in this thread with genuine FAQ and knowledgebase management needs seem to think this is a worthwhile product. Not everything works effectively as a one-time-fee downloadable script. And at the end of the day, consumers have the choice in what they use. It's not like these folks have the monopoly on FAQ solutions.
