MadCap Software is excited to announce the release of MadCap Pulse: the only social collaboration platform that enables technical authors and docs managers to add a complete social layer around their documentation. Pulse enables you to create a real-time thread of ideas, information-sharing, and opinions both inside your organization and with your customers.
