XML Developer Community Reaction

"XML and Web services offer greater flexibility and interoperability than older EDI technologies -- new support for EDI-to-XML mapping in Stylus Studio provides an elegant solution for building new XQuery and XSLT enabled systems while still leveraging existing investments in legacy EDI systems that are so prevalent in the back-office operations of manufacturing, healthcare and many other industries. The new release offers compelling value by simplifying what would otherwise be very complex data integration projects," said Sherman Gomberg, senior managing consultant, Syncata Corporation, a business consulting and systems integration firm focused on the automotive and manufacturing industries.

"Overall, Stylus Studio 6 XML Professional Edition is a mature product that works quite well, and was capable of handling all the XML-related tasks that I threw at it." -- Mike Gunderloy, MCSE, MCSD .NET, MCDBA, Contributing Editor ADT Magazine.
