Challenge

Before using FlowShare, knowledge sharing at SPI Systemberatung Programmierung Industrieelektronik GmbH was either text-based or explained personally. Text-based documentation often led to ambiguous results, while personal explanations required time and effort. In addition, knowledge shared verbally was not documented, making it difficult to reuse across projects or for future reference.
