Think Tango is the best option for software how-to guides? Try Komodo instead.
Tango is great for simple step-by-step guides. But if you need to document advanced workflows or share video walkthroughs, Komodo offers:
- How-to guides with unlimited steps
- Unlimited screen and webcam recordings
- Page builder for custom landing pages

Why HR, product, and ops teams prefer Komodo over Tango
Train teams and onboard clients with detailed workflows
Komodo guides allow unlimited steps, making them ideal for complex SOPs. Create as many steps as you need and get as detailed as you want.
Tango workflows stop at 100 steps, limiting the level of detail.
“I absolutely ADORE Komodo. I use it for onboarding new team members and SOPs. The video + guides make it so easy for team members to refer to an item when they forget.” - Kamilah Jolly
Add clarity and increase adoption with explainer videos
Komodo's video + guide setting lets you record a video or voiceover to accompany a guide. Easily add context or pro tips to any workflow.
Tango doesn't support video, making it tough to explain your processes.
“I love Komodo's video + guide and guide-only features on top of the video recording feature. It's particularly useful when writing step-by-step guides and SOPs.” - warp214
Turn workflows into ultimate guides with custom pages
Komodo's custom landing pages support multimedia and calls-to-action. Transform a video into a complete demo, knowledge base, or training guide.
Tango doesn't have a page builder, so workflows can't link together.
“Not only can I quickly record a video of what to do, it can also create written instructions! THis is a killer feature and helps build guides and instructions quick and easy.” - Mark J. Draper
