About our documentation
Here at Bamboo, we think documentation is useful as a reference tool and we don’t expect you will read everything we write about our products. With that in mind, we have organized our documentation to help you find the information you need when you need it. Each product has a landing page that looks like this.

- In this quadrant you will discover topics relating to installing Bamboo products for the first time or how to handle installation if you migrate to a new version of SharePoint. Each time you see an ellipsis after the phrase (…), you will find a list of topics rather than a single page of content or there may be no topics for that particular topic and an empty page will display. We will continually be updating and adding topics so you will likely see more content in the future!

- Whether you try one Bamboo product, a toolkit or a suite of products, the download is a fully-functional version to install and configure in your environment.

- Configuring your product is the how to set it up as it was intended by the developers so that you can best leverage the product features. This quadrant provides information relating to configuring your Bamboo product as well as a list of troubleshooting tips relating to configuration. You may see a link to a video within any topic in our documentation; all of those videos are in our Bamboo Solutions Support YouTube channel.

- We want you to use our products and this quadrant covers how users will interact with them. Many of the screens you interact with are featured in this section with a plethora of helpful, how-to topics that explain not just what you see on the screen and how to fill in the fields, but tips on why to choose one option versus another option.

At the bottom of the quadrants, we include a link to all
the topics relating to that product. If you still cannot
locate what you need, take advantage of our search
boxes. At the top of each page is a global search to find
topics relating to keywords. We also provide filtering
to narrow down your search results. |

Each page also gives you a quick link to the storefront page where you can download a trial or purchase our products.
