What do you like best about Altova MissionKit?

Altova suite is giving a full brunch of features for both XML, Json, CSV, webservices, DBs Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Altova MissionKit?

In Mapforce versioning is not an option, and commenting a mapping is not easy: hard to remember why you did something in a complex mapping.

In Mapforce, for some features you need to use the "Mapforce server" (i.e. https webservices /tokens) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Altova MissionKit:

Altova has no real rivals for a lot of vertical features.

Using complex jsons and XML with a visual instrument and compile code without writing a line, is a very nice approach. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Altova MissionKit solving and how is that benefiting you?

Data mapping, interations, filesystem transformation. The bundle is a mix of useful tools from basic coding (xmlspy and diff dog) to data mapping (mapforce and flextext), to database management (databasespy), to data rendering (stylevision) and u-modeling (umodel) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Altova MissionKit?

I like that there are so many options and different aspects included in the software suite. I specifically needed the XML editor and this has worked great. It did take a little time and testing to figure out how to do what I needed with the XML editor. It took some trial and error, but I think that is to be expected with a robust software package. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Altova MissionKit?

The software required a good amount of RAM on your PC. I had a high powered PC and had to request more to be installed. It also slows all the other processed on my PC while I am using it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Altova MissionKit:

Very robust package with lots of options and added software features for XML. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Altova MissionKit solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am able to view, edit, search and export very large XML files quite easily with this software. The searching features have been a great use and surprise to me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

If your work requires you to work with xml, this suite of tools is mandatory for you. Define, modify, analyse xsd and xml in xmlspy.
