## Reviews

### "Most intuitive XML Editor of all time\!" — 5.0/5

> **Thomas** | *18 January 2023* | Internet | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Superintuitive User Interface, high speed editing, great change tracking, granular document handling
> 
> **Cons**: Usage on smartphones could be a bit more intuitve, but this is a use case that is rarely asked from our customers
> 
> We and all our clients love the way you work with Fonto.

### "Our experience as an integrator for publishing industry" — 5.0/5

> **Arnaud** | *3 November 2021* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We appreciate a lot the user experience of the solution, with quick adoption from users, no training necessary. Also the user cannot break the XML structure, the software always maintains consistency.&#10;As an integrator, we appreciate the customization possibilities of the solution.
> 
> **Cons**: As an integrator, the only con is that the programming language is very specific to the solution.
> 
> We are integrating Fonto for our customers in publishing industry mainly.&#10;Our solutions are about creating and publishing complex contents with collaborative editing, cross content links management, ...

### "Fonto Implementation Partner" — 5.0/5

> **Joe** | *8 December 2020* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The Fonto Editor and Review products are very flexible in terms of ability to architect and support our various customer needs and integrations with various content management systems, primarily through configuration. The UI is clean, intuitive and requires little to no training for end users to begin creating XML-based content without knowing they are working with structured content. As an implementer of Fonto products, especially integrating with PTC Windchill, the support team is phenomenal and goes beyond any other support team I've worked with to resolve questions and provide examples when possible.
> 
> **Cons**: Most of the initial "cons" we felt were more related to our development team learning how to best implement the software and not necessarily try to emulate the features of more traditional XML authoring tools.
> 
> Our customers see the value Fonto brings to their organizations through reduced work by writing teams to manually recreate content from subject matter experts that were previously provided to them in non-XML formats such as Word and PDF. Now, the SMEs and writers are all working in the same format (XML), although the SMEs never actually see the XML.&#10;As an implementation partner of Fonto, Oberon Technologies recognizes the value of a solid software product and strong product support team.

### "Fonto makes XML easy\!" — 4.0/5

> **Richard** | *22 February 2023* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: An intuitive web interface for editing XML content is not easy to implement, and Fonto does it well.
> 
> **Cons**: Could use some low-level XML editing when the GUI doesn't let you do specific things.
> 
> We need a new web-based XML editor to integrate into our software, and Fonto is "best-of-breed" for this purpose.

### "Fonto Makes  Working with XML Convenient than Most XML Editors I've Tried" — 5.0/5

> **Ralph** | *26 August 2021* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: First off, because Fonto is cloud-based, it's always accessible so far there is an internet connection which means you can access and work on your files even if you are not with your PC. The interface of Fonto looks extremely neat and that boosts focus when I make use of it for editing.&#10;&#10;Fonto actually simplifies working with XML files even if you are a complete newbie to markup languages. You can actually annotate sections of your XML document by just clicking on add comment and this makes collaboration more efficient between authors.&#10;&#10;Also, managing metadata in Fonto is quite easy and as straightforward as can be and you can also move content over from other editors while the formatting stays intact.&#10;&#10;There's almost nothing that you can do in most editors that you can't do in Fonto.
> 
> **Cons**: There's nothing that I have a problem with regarding Fonto.
