Do you guys keep documentation in your business or do you guys give basic documentation when you consult ? How much importance do you give to documentation ?
Are you using Wiki's ? Word, Excell, PDF documents ? XML files ? software like Docbooks ?
I try to give at least a word document with pictures of the topology, hardware brand and models, serial numbers. Then I moved to XML documents and Docbooks because I get rid of the binary format and it can be backed up on a subversion system but I realised that for 70% of my clients just throw it away and never look at it.
