How to Fix an Outdated Knowledge Base Automatically

Published By

Picture this: You're scrolling through your company's knowledge base, and BAM! You stumble upon a dusty old PDF sporting your logo from 2017. Cue the internal cringe and panicked thoughts, "Oh no, please tell me no customers have seen this!" An outdated knowledge base can undermine your brand's credibility and frustrate both employees and customers. Keeping your resources current is essential for maintaining a professional image and providing accurate information.

You’re losing customers if your knowledge base isn’t updated

According to a Zendesk study, 50% of customers are exhausted and stressed after interacting with support. 81% of them look for answers in your knowledge base first - so when they can’t find them, it risks your NPS scores. 78% of them won’t buy again after a negative service experience.

How to you keep your knowledge base updated

In almost every case, the only way to keep your knowledge base 100% up to date is consistent diligence - your team will need to be actively writing new content and removing outdated info to keep up with changes in your product. Many companies will need to hire someone to at least do this part time to ensure this doesn’t fall by the wayside when other priorities come up.

Really? Does it take that much work?

Imagine your knowledge base as a garden. Sounds lovely, right? Now imagine that garden is the size of Central Park, and you're the only gardener. No matter how diligent you are, some weeds (i.e., outdated content) will always sneak through. Traditionally, keeping content fresh and relevant has required an endless supply of time and energy.

Why Keeping Your Knowledge Base Updated is Usually a Pain

Consider all the places your company stores its knowledge. It probably looks like a digital version of your grandma's attic. Marketing's whipping up blog posts while IT's coding away in their own corner. The result? A smorgasbord of mismatched information that would make any librarian weep. It's no wonder things get outdated!

And let's be real – finding a knowledge management guru capable of taking it all on alone would be harder than finding a needle in a haystack. It's simply unrealistic to expect one person to play detective across your entire tech stack.
