About XMLSpy

XMLSpy is an on-premise solution that helps businesses leverage XML and JSON editors to build applications and manage modeling processes.

XMLSpy allows organizations to create schemas using a drag-and-drop interface and simultaneously apply updates across multiple files, folders or a single project. Managers can create graphical representations of JSON documents, troubleshoot XPath/XQuery and handle refactoring processes. Additionally, it lets users generate nodesets or subsets and debug XSLT stylesheets. XLMSpy enables businesses to validate syntax errors, convert files to XML format and paste content from various applications. Pricing is availabl...

Great Product!

I've written tens of thousands of lines of XSLT code using XMLSpy. It is my favorite XML editor.

PROS

XMLSpy is a full featured markup language editor. I am able to work within multiple markup languages, including XSLT and easily debug my code using this product.

CONS

In my opinion the cost is a little high for this product. But if you work in coding (by hand) these languages on a daily basis then it is worth it.

First class XML based editor and IDE

This is a fully featured software for developing XML and web services using XML, JSON, XSD, XSLT, and WSDL SOAP among other things. If you spend time working with these 'languages' XMLSpy is a must-have tool.

PROS

XMLSpy has everything you need in one product. It's very well designed. The GUI is well laid out, and the interface is intuitive. Being able to visualize your XML, JSON, XSDs etc. is a massive time saver!

CONS

There was nothing about this product to complain about. From price to implementation, it checked all of the boxes.

Reason for choosing XMLSpy

This is a fully featured software for developing XML and web services using XML, JSON, XSD, XSLT, and WSDL SOAP among other things. If you spend time working with these 'languages' then XMLSpy is a must-have tool. It will save you hours of time designing schemas and offers a variety of ways to visualize these.XMLSpy is now part of my standard coding toolset. Well worth the investment!

XML Spy - the XML Editor of your choice

XMLSpy is a very versatile XML Editor that we use a lot for our integrations. Like all Altova Products if you get stuck with a problem you usually count on the Altova team in Austria to fix your support issue within 24 hours.

PROS

I like the new XBRL Taxonomy Manager in XML Spy 2021 which helps to manage XBRL taxanomies across the different Altova applications. XML Spy will always be my first choice of XML editors. We use it a lot in conjunction with Altova's MapForce product

CONS

Software has several updates over the course of the year as have all Altova products. That can be a plus but it also means testing the updated versions before releasing them into the Production environment.
