AT&T Product Documentation Demo
AT&T's documentation department faced a touchy challenge in securing funding for worldwide electronic documentation and training. Senior management, accustomed to printed manuals and training seminars, needed to be shown the tangible benefits of multimedia. Also, management, employees, and customers needed a demonstration of how multimedia documentation differentiates AT&T's products. A flip-chart presentation stating the benefits wouldn't sell them on a major shift in training approach and allocation. Images from the Product Documentation Demo

Fact Sheet

  • Multimedia product information program created in Director
  • Cognetics wrote the script and shot all video used in the project
Cognetics created a CD-ROM that demonstrates the productivity that everyone can derive from getting complete, on-screen information and direction immediately on a variety of subjects. We created seven scenarios showing how typical users might work with online documentation. Some were humorous -- including Edna the receptionist encountering a computerized phone system her first minutes on the job, and a salesperson preparing and delivering on the spur of the moment a customized presentation -- but they all show how such documentation makes a measurable difference in the way people actually work.

Video Scenarios

Field Technician The field technician benefits from having accurate information for many different products at his fingertips.  No more lugging piles of paper manuals from site to site.
  Telecommunications Manager
The systems manager is always running to put out fires.  Networked documentation with a good search capability gives him the information he needs when he needs it...wherever he is.
Sales RepIn a Dragnet style dramatization, a sales rep is able to create a custom presentation and answer tough technical questions in the field, using multimedia product documentation.

Cognetics understands the business environment, so the multimedia presentation sends the right message.
