Yeah, if I was looking to move away from FrameMaker for the reasons you are, Flare would be the one to beat. Its FrameMaker import is excellent so if your docs are tagged consistently the transition is relatively painless. On Fri, Apr 22, 2016 at 9:10 AM, Tornquist, Patti

We are using insets for reuse (and we use unstructured FM12). So for content that is used in multiple places, we make it into a text inset and then we can edit in one place and use it in multiple places. We log the insets in a spreadsheet by fm file name, topic title, writer, and last change

Could you describe the end result? It's not exactly clear what you're trying to accomplish. Are you generating multiple versions of a document with different sets of insets? If so, how many documents and how many insets? Generally speaking, I would not try to do that with unstructured FrameMaker.
