"The gulf between the content structure and its end-user presentation can be fairly broad in systems like ours. DeltaXML bridges that gap by providing meaningful change representations to our users in authoring, editing and review contexts. These representations allow our users to make effective editorial decisions about the content they're responsible for managing. You can expect Vignette to focus more closely on services for the editorial user as the Vignette Content Management program continues, and DeltaXML will definitely be a part of that emphasis."
Ian Stahl, Product Manager, Content Services Group, Vignette
“We expect a more streamlined production process and better transparency, data integrity and quality from using DeltaXML. Our goal is to reduce workload by automating several processes in production and DeltaXML is helping us achieve this.”
Torgeir Tveiten, Avinor.
"We are globally very pleased with your product and the support that comes with it."
Maxime Bégnis from the Calenco Team
"Amazing!
Dear DeltaXML-Team, thanks ever so much for this! Not only tables are perfectly
compared now, but also changes in images are shown. Also, the comparison
algorithm for normal text is better than the one of the built-in comparison
feature, which often shows whole text blocks as changed instead of the
individual word that was changed."
“DeltaXML was a key component to our success and we would have been lost without it." IT Application Development Manager
"We already made a requirement analysis... which should implement a DITA Merge. But a market analysis found your wonderful product which matched almost all of our requirements."
"Just before you take your well deserved holiday, just let me express my extreme gratitude for the amazing job you and your people did. I really think this makes a world of difference. Thank you!"
The French national research agency INRIA have published a report "A comparative study of XML diff tools". In this they describe DeltaXML as "the established market leaders". Although this was published in 2004 much of their analysis is still relevant because XML itself has been stable over this time period.
Jon Udell of InfoWorld, writing in March 2004, had this to say, "To get a sense of what's possible, check out Monsell EDM's online demo of its Delta XML technology. The demo compares two subtly different versions of a complex graphic — the standard SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) "tiger" benchmark — and animates the differences between the two. It's stunningly cool."
The UK market research group Bloor Research have also been looking at DeltaXML, we're glad they think so highly of us: Bloor Research article on DeltaXML by Peter Abrahams..
Also worth noting is an O'Reilly book, "XML Hacks", by Michael Fitzgerald, which looks at some available online XML comparison tools and awards DeltaXML the epithet "grokable". If you have the "XML Handbook" 5th Edition by Charles F. Goldfarb, check chapter 33 "Managing Change in XML Content".
We are determined to keep our focus on providing features that developers really want, that solve real problems with easily accessible tools - so we're very pleased with this assessment. Blistering speed and configurability are only part of the picture, ease of use is critical also.
